Dreamtime Return

Released

Starting in 1987, Steve Roach spent some years recording and releasing formal collaborative efforts, another one of his continuing practices as a whole – but there was one big exception, an album whose long-term impact was as deeply felt as Structures From Silence. Dreamtime Return, developed partially as a soundtrack to David Stahl’s Art Of The Dreamtime film on the deep culture of Indigenous Australians, was recorded with a number of performers, a fascinating blend of traditional instrumentation and the deep flow of Roach’s electronics.
