Steve Roach – Spiral Meditations
CD/DIGITAL DOWNLOAD, Projekt Records, 2013


The title of this release implies an introspective journey into ambient music, and that’s exactly what the listener receives: a sequencer-based, slow morphing and highly minimal long form piece. While listening to “Spiral Meditations”, the thought of Steve’s track “Destination Horizon” passed my mind more than once.

The circular, driving structures encountered throughout the high-tech piece stand out due to its vibrant character and energetic undercurrent. Repetitive, geometric patterns push things forward relentlessly, revealing only slight melodic lines along many sonic details along the way. It even turns into a groovy entity on “The Feeling expands”.

The seven musical mandalas making up “Spiral Meditations” all come in waves, breathing emotive, sedate atmospheres as they unwind.
