ROACH, STEVE - Structures From Silence

Structures From Silence is his third album originally released in 1984, and is his first purely textural album, with a smooth, dark, gentle atmospheres unlike any of his other albums. Full of purring drones and high notes that shimmer and fade. Like a desert mirage, these structures hover forever at the horizon, an oasis from the din surrounding it --From Pitchforks Best Ambient Albums Of All Time. Steve Roachs Structures From Silence remains one of the most important ambient albums ever crafted. It isnt as high profile as similarly poised records from Brian Eno, but its enduring influence has been unmistakably visible in the three decades since its release. --FACT Magazine. Remastered from the original tapes, this is the first vinyl reissue of the album since its initial release in 1984." - Telephone Explosion.
