MUSIC SPECIAL: Robert Rich – December Special at Soundscape Productions
Robert Rich is doing his part to make December more fun. For any order over $20.00 (USD) from our Soundscape order form, they’ll include a copy of Percy Howard’s Meridiem “A Scattering Time” for Free. It’s an intense album, not for everyone, so they’ll only send a copy if you click the box on the form to request it.
Across three decades and over 30 albums, Robert Rich has helped define the genres of ambient music, dark-ambient, tribal and trance, yet his music remains hard to categorize. Part of his unique sound comes from using home-made acoustic and electronic instruments, microtonal harmonies, computer-based signal processing, chaotic systems and feedback networks. Rich began building his own analog synthesizers in 1976, when he was 13 years old, and later studied for a year at Stanford’s Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA).
Also, Robert Rich has had many requests for “Perpetual” downloads from purchasers of the Blu-ray. During December they’ll include a free Download Card for FLAC or MP3 files from CD Baby, for anyone who orders the Blu-ray edition. (Or, if you ask Robert Rich directly, he can offer Blu-ray purchasers access to a DropBox folder with MP3 files.)
