Left Here Alone; Smiling is the fourth studio album by Echo Orbiter. It was released on Looking Glass Workshop in 2002.

Each sound is sustained, with a long reverb, overlapping one another in the same manner that Impressionist painters like Monet would blur multiple individual strokes of paint together to form a recognizable object or image.
