DESCRIPTION
==================
review from http://www.atlinernotes.com/2013/08/steve-moore-positronic.html:
When it comes to electronic music, there are few things better than the warmth and beauty of the sounds created by analog synthesizers. While legends like Tangerine Dream, Wendy Carlos and Michael Garrison immediately come to mind when discussing these particular instruments, it is becoming less common to come across contemporary players embracing the sonic palette of analog. Thank goodness then for Steve Moore, and his new album, Positronic Neural Pathways.
Released at the end of July via bandcamp, this album is an excellent example of exploring the interstellar realms of "space music".
Space music is an interesting style of recorded sound and it is understandable if you are not familiar with the term. For a niche genre, it's adherents tend to be extremely loyal. Space music doesn't necessarily have to sound like traveling through the cosmos without aid of a spacecraft, though much of it can feel and sound that way.
Stephen Hill, the co-founder of legendary radio program Music from the Hearts of Space puts it thusly: "When you listen to space and ambient music you are connecting with a tradition of contemplative sound experience whose roots are ancient and diverse. The genre spans historical, ethnic, and contemporary styles. In fact, almost any music with a slow pace and space-creating sound images could be called spacemusic."
As a long time fan of space music, it is very exciting to happen across newer variations on its themes, so finding the creations of Steve Moore is very exciting. Hopefully you have been listening to the opening track from the album. The subsequent sounds are equally on pair. Of particular note is track 3, "Render Ghosts" on which Moore, whether consciously or not, channels a bit of Wendy Carlos, with bright lead tones overlaying the soft, warm undercurrent line in perfect fashion.
NOTE: This was apparently downloaded as flac files from http://stevemoore2600.bandcamp.com/album/positronic-neural-pathways. I converted them to mp3 using Audacity 2.0.5.
