The Passing

Released on the occasion of Steve Roach’s 62nd birthday, The Passing serves as a notable marking point for someone who has over the course of innumerable albums explored the concept of timelessness or at least how the pursuit of deep electronic composition via both meditative and propulsive structures can lead to other states. Consisting of a single hour long piece, The Passing feels like a summary of all those facets of Roach’s work, a progression that involves no motion.
