Roach, Steve
Ambient Church - New York City
For over thirty five years, Steve Roach has performed in awe inspiring spaces around the world.
From a massive cave on the Canary Islands, cathedrals in Europe and the US, to a volcanic lava
bed encircled with 64 stone monoliths in Mexico City, all of these experiences informed Steves
invitation to perform a two-hour set within the historic Church of the Heavenly Rest in New York
City in June 2022. Roach built the set's flow with classic tracks and pieces composed specifically
for the massive acoustic sacred space which served as the container for the unparalleled sound
and light experience of this music.
The result is a magnificent recording unlike any in Steves catalog. With the cathedral at full
capacity, well over 1000 people experienced a pinnacle moment including the performance of
iconic "Structures from Silence" reverberating within the massive stone walls. The full range
of Roachs dynamic soundworlds takes on a symphonic experience; the embrace of a truly
monolithic sacred space and captivated audience influenced the musics creation. This is the
realm in which Roachs music truly soars - the place it is destined to be experienced - and
is now here immersed within this magnificent release.
