Dropped Pianos is an EP by Tim Hecker, released on October 10, 2011 by Kranky.[1][2] It was recorded in early 2010 in Montreal and Banff, Canada,[3] before its companion album, Ravedeath, 1972.[4]

The EP is described as an "inversion" of Ravedeath, released previously in 2011. Its tone is "starker and colder" than its predecessor, deemed "intimate" whilst Ravedeath is described as "grand".[4]
