Steve Roach, Jorge Reyes 2014 Projekt PRO310 (CD) Reviewed by Exposé Conjuring images of a primal futurism, this alchemical blending-of-sound is a ceremonial offering to the forgotten gods. THE ANCESTOR CIRCLE is a new tribal-ambient-electronic collaboration, the first recording from Roach and Reyes since VINE ~ BARK & SPORE. This is the lost chapter of a long soulful journey that has taken twists and turns in its unfoldment. The music feels steeped in a frothy mind-altering blend, waiting for years as the potency increased. Roach and Reyes combined their instinctual nature -- developed over almost a decade of worldwide live and studio adventures -- leading up to the core of what became THE ANCESTOR CIRCLE. It is in this circle that their sound is unearthed from deep within their primordial soundworld, where prehistory meets future-tech creating a sound impossible to carbon date. Like the audio artifacts of a lost tribe, the studio source recordings that form this album's foundation were uncovered in 2013 on a cryptically-marked set of tapes. Created the week before Roach and Reyes' May 2000 concert at Tucson's Temple of Music and Art, this is their last joint studio project, as Reyes passed on to the ancestor circle in 2009.

Steve Roach 2014 (CD) This piece was created over the last few days leading up to the Blood Moon night of October 7th, 2014. So much of my work is born from the deep end of the night immersion. Staying aware of the moon's many phases, from full to new, has always been a part of my creative undercurrent; the opportunity to acknowledge this moment in time without question made this piece flow forth. Tuning into this Blood Moon feeling -- mixed with the sense in the air right now of the season's change -- is inside this piece, and now I quietly offer it up to the moon and to you in a more spontaneous way, only through Bandcamp.

Steve Roach 2014 Projekt PRO305 (CD) Reviewed by Hypnagogue, Santa Sangre Steve Roach's new studio release THE DELICATE FOREVER presents a reverie of gentle and etheric ambient sound meditations that awaken complex and resonant states of emotional and psychological perspectives. The nuanced, minimal electronics interplay with a masterful use of musical space, breath, silence, and rich textural colors in a subtle dynamic flow. Nurturing the senses in inexplicable ways, these sound paintings become an evocative environment for activating a state of rarefied reflections.

Atmospheres for the Night Journey Steve Roach, Kelly David 2014 Projekt PRO297 (CD) Reviewed by Santa Sangre THE LONG NIGHT is a deep-breathing sigh of the eternal nocturnal: gossamer atmospheres for the still hours of the night. Focusing on non-rhythmic, textural-harmonic electronic soundscapes, this collaboration unfurls like slow-moving, moonlit clouds. Although THE LONG NIGHT leaves the lighted world behind, its midnight path leads to a state of gleaming serenity and calmness. This music is contemplative, though not brooding: a meditative environment filled with open spaces and tendrils of sound composed of shifting subtle moods and gleaming electronic passages.
