Rendering Time: Deborah Martin & Jill Haley Complete Their Ambient Trilogy

The visionary duo return with their third collaboration, blending acoustic and electronic soundscapes.

isionary artists Deborah Martin and Jill Haley return with their third collaborative ambient album, Rendering Time, set for release on September 26, 2025 through Spotted Peccary Music. Following their acclaimed works Into the Quiet (2023) and The Silence of Grace (2021), this final installment completes a trilogy that reflects on nature, time, and the mysteries of human existence.

The album’s lead single, Fitful Dreams, is already available to stream, giving listeners a taste of the expansive and deeply immersive soundscape the duo has created.



A Journey Through Sound and Meaning

At its heart, Rendering Time is an exploration of transformation—how we move through life’s cycles, from birth to death, and beyond. Deborah Martin reflects, “We are born, we live, we die. This is a continuous process throughout infinity, as our planet and universe are always transformative—torn apart, rebuilt, moving to another plane of being.”


Jill Haley adds her own perspective, highlighting how nature influences her compositions: “I truly feel that I am given a gift from the beauty surrounding us in our natural environment. That makes the music flow effortlessly into my fingers and onto the keyboard and wind instruments.”


The Sound of Existence


Across its ten compositions, Rendering Time blends classical acoustic instrumentation with electronic textures. The result is a sonic journey through spaces that feel both grounded in the natural world and suspended in the ethereal.


Listeners will hear an extraordinary range of instruments:


Jill Haley performs on Oboe, English Horn, Black Cedar Flute, and more.


Deborah Martin contributes with handpan, guitar, Taos drums, synths, and other unique sound sources.


Together, their collaboration bridges ancient and modern, acoustic and electronic, intimate and universal.

Completing a Trilogy

With Rendering Time, Martin and Haley bring to completion a three-album cycle that began with a focus on nature and has since expanded into broader themes of time and existence. Haley notes, “When I think of rendering, I think of completing a project: the final step. This is the culmination of our work together creating ambient music.”


Pre-Save & Listen

Rendering Time is available now for pre-order and pre-save in multiple formats, including high-resolution studio masters. Fans can experience the single Fitful Dreams ahead of the full release.
