about

Zero Point is the first time I released music that wasn't at least partially my own, and so serves as a milestone in the development of the label. More importantly it's a great album! I met Seofon just before we did a radio interview at KALX here in Berkeley and we hit it off right away. I always enjoy his perspective on music and art, and I think we are both intrigued by the collaborative process. Seofon's talent, commitment and insight shine through on Zero Point, complimenting the strong contributions from some of the most talented ambient artists on the scene.

From the press release:
Zero Point is the product of "recycling" collaborations begun between Vidna Obmana, Steve Roach and Seofon. As the project progressed Stephen Kent, Robert Rich, Not Breathing, and Thermal were included in the circle and the result is a wonderful album full of shifting textures and shimmering ideas. Recycling is a term coined by Vidna Obmana (and Asmus Tietchens) to describe a process more immersive than simple remixing.

Reviews:

"... the talents and contributions on Zero Point combine perfectly to form 'one from many.'" Chuck Van Zyl , Star's End

"In the making of Zero Point: Lessons in being nothing, Seofon has enlisted help from some of the finest experimentalists and jointly achieved lovely abstractions." David Opdyke, AmbiEntrance

"... I find all of it fantastic and breathtaking. Indispensable listening." Phil Derby, Exposé Magazine

THE PASSING
by Steve Roach

supported by 11 fans who also own “Zero Point (An Ambient Temple of Imagination Project)”

...transmuting through gorgeously heartwarming mirages into blissful all-embracing sonic euphoria. It happens again and again with each spin, I am drifting through the emotionally magnified sonic Eden into the resonant silence with goosebumps on my arms... Recorded in the remembrance of lost loved ones, "The Passing" dives into the most intense, yet nectarously sumptuous, harmoniously gratifying and luminously eulogistic zones of heart-rending contemplations ever sculpted by Steve Roach!!!

Fade To Gray
by Steve Roach

supported by 10 fans who also own “Zero Point (An Ambient Temple of Imagination Project)”

This is the journey to the center of gray. It is what it is and always will have been. Words waste time when this creation should be the main thing in our minds. The ability of Steve's music to transport us to realms of truth and beauty is really the crux of what this is all about. The zone is reached in this incredible sound world.
