Celer (group)
Celer is an American warm drone music artist, formerly a group, based in Tokyo, Japan. History. Founded in 2005, at the beginning of their relationship in Huntington Beach, California, U.S.A., Celer was created as a musical and artistic collaboration between Danielle Baquet-Long and Will Long. Between 2005 and 2007, the couple created 22 releases, which they self-released, packaged in handmade, hand-painted packages, with designs, and individual stencils. The handmade packaging designs have been described as "deliciously mysterious", where "Muted and bleach colours stretch as far as the eye can see in these panoramic paintings for  the mind", and the music as "deeply personal, or unwittingly obscure", and "gentle, haunting and evocative", created "primarily from personal memories and thought experiments". After producing music for record labels, installations, and exhibits worldwide from 2005 to 2009, Danielle Baquet-Long died on July 8, 2009 of heart failure. From 2009 to the present, Celer has been the solo ambient project of Will Long.
