Roach, Steve
Molecules Of Motion
On his first studio album since his recent Grammy nomination (for the Spiral Revelation album), Roach calls upon an expansive 35-year legacy at the forefront of electronic music creation. Molecules of Motionì is a masterful album with roots in the Berlin School and a foot in the transcendent unknown of the future flowing into now. The album is a sonic marvel: shimmering, pulsing, moving, emotional and engaging. A tapestry of sequencer-spun patterns floats upon an atmosphere of lush emotive textures alive with a vibrant, life-affirming glow. These four pieces can best be described as meditations upon elegant motion and electro-sensual space.
