LIFE SEQUENCE is a chronicle of new and personally significant unreleased pieces. Since the release of CORE and my recent purely atmospheric projects, I felt the growing urge to re-visit my electronic "roots" in analog sequencer-style music. The fact that I had moved away from this sound for awhile made reconnecting with it much like finding an old friend inside myself. |

Without the aid of insistent rhythms, Roach takes his electroacoustic investigations into the dark heart of the sonic ooze. The sounds that emanate from his journey are older than form, order or civilization. He interprets them from the experiential realm as a medium. |

A stunning recording of quietly moving soundworlds, MIDNIGHT MOON is a collection of haunting, minimal, deep-of-the-night, mood-drenched pieces. The recording was conceived in 1998 when Steve began to explore his own style of atmospheric, processed guitar-based zones. After extensive looping and processing, the sound has an indigo, deep-violet hue. The result is one of pure introspection. |

Drones wrenched out of some nameless void cruise slowly through great vacuums of space, the only intrusion coming from stark, unearthly tones. This is music that emerges from the shadows, often erupting out of the blackness, but willing to nestle comfortably in the darkness. The sounds are nearly imperceptible until they suddenly grab their surroundings in their awe-inspiring, immense grip. |

From the 1998 release DUST TO DUST on Projekt, this collaboration with Roger King ventures into a brave new world inspired by the late 80's... 1880 that is. This CD plays like a soundtrack to a tale of those driven to "Go West" at great risk to follow their dreams, and quite often finding a lot less. Although a departure from Steve Roach's other releases, this is filled with his unmistakable atmospheres and spirit. Slip on yer boots and saddle up. |

STORMWARNING takes you to the outer edges of Steve Roach's music where he engages in a driving high-energy sound first explored on albums EMPETUS, NOW and TRAVELER. In the live performances of Stormwarning, Roach unlocks the synchronous perfection of sequencers, creating elaborate, interlocking patterns that weave into infinite, Escher-like designs, set against Roach's skyscraping synthesizer fury. |

Steve Roach has created a spellbinding look into our primordial unconscious memories on EARLY MAN. Dreaming in the desert by ancient firelight, cave paintings come to life in a slow soul-dance of evolutionary magic. A day in the life of EARLY MAN moves through different zones that conjure up ancient elemental atmospheres, along with occasional distant and subdued primordial rhythms. |

From the 1998 release DUST TO DUST on Projekt, this collaboration with Roger King ventures into a brave new world inspired by the late 80's... 1880 that is. This CD plays like a soundtrack to a tale of those driven to "Go West" at great risk to follow their dreams, and quite often finding a lot less. Although a departure from Steve Roach's other releases, this is filled with his unmistakable atmospheres and spirit. Slip on yer boots and saddle up. |

An opening to an alluring and intense underworld. This release has it all: ultra-soundworlds, hybrid grooves with Byron Metcalf's acoustic-organic tribal trance patterns. Aligning with themes of shamanic initiation found throughout the world, this album is rooted in the organic, the earth, the ancestors, and the energy of focused ritual practices which are born from the alchemical fires. |

A deep zoneworld of glacial movement and magma-like flow, no beginning, no end... you have just been dropped off in a far corner of space, and what's that I hear? If a Mark Rothko painting could make sound, this might be it... 74 minutes x repeat mode = a severe change in atmospheric conditions... and possible hypnogogic states. A minimal, immersive sound environment. |
