Pushing the boundaries of perception-expanding music, Steve Roach and Robert Logan present two vastly different albums which serve as transmissions of powerful emotion and exploration - a blending of man and machine. Biosonic's elegant futurism and Second Nature's romantic mini- malism are distinct, yet intimately linked within subtle, pulsing, body-mind states. The former's darkly ecstatic, deeply-layered, electro-neural atmosphere contrasts with the latter's nuanced, spare, ambient-atmospheric piano tone paintings.
