Steve Roach - Structures from Silence


Shit, I'm a little late but nevertheless let's get to it.

Ever since I  watched Blade Runner I wanted to find some more of that spacey synth music so eventually I found this little album. Steve Roach experimented with a lot of types of soundscapes so naturally he released quite a lot of things but he usually gets associated with those new age music/movements. You know, that music you listen while meditating and some middle aged guy tells you to open your mind. This means that he has released a lot of cheeky elevator music but he also has quite a few of the good releases.

Structures from Silence is one of the good guys from his discography. It sounds pretty much like being stranded in space on some desolate station eating plastic food, waiting to get impregnated by facehuggers. There are three fairly long tracks that suck you in their respective atmospheres. While monotonous (in a good way) each track is distinct so you don't get always the same thing albeit they all follow a premise of being a slow minimalist piece.

Great music for late nights.

Oh and please take note that this is in flac.

    The last track is great to go to sleep on (not a bad thing) or to get a massage.
