Roach, Steve
Sanctuary Of Desire
2CD in 6-panel Digipak. Masterfully joining the two worlds that define Steve Roach's signature styles, the 140-minute 2CD Sanctuary of Desire combines deep ambience and mesmerizing, spiral-like forms in a majestic flow of stately elegance and breathtaking aural drift. Disc one explores a realm of suspended tranquility, sustained reflection and emotional resonance. Disc two soars upon a morphing journey into the mythic imagination by way of multi-dimensional mandala-like tapestries woven from Steve's mastery of analog-based synths and sequencers and hovering atmospherics. A timeless ephemeral and empowered space that soothes, inspires and enlightens. "The album," Roach muses, "is a cathedral of the future built to hold and nourish the deep spirit of the creative life. It has transcendent yearning, aspiration and integration at its foundation."
