Following three masterful collaborations with Craig Padilla on the Lotuspike label, Zero Ohms (aka Richard Roberts) returns with PROCESS OF BEING, a new ambient solo work of floating, etherial, luminous and expansive spacemusic. With his flutes and wind synthesizers in tandem, Zero Ohms brings forth billowing spaces that ascend and gently fall, effortlessly altering the listener's sense of time and space. This brilliantly subtle, beatless environment breathes with a sense of infinite presence, leaving both the past and the future elsewhere.
The album's six tracks are well-developed, patient, deep and probing, seeping into, and shifting the frequencies of awareness. Through it all, the reigning atmosphere of peace and open space is everywhere evident, and the result serves as a soothing reminder of the joy of stillness and serenity.
In speaking about this album, Richard shares "I have tried to establish a sense of infinity and freedom, and the sense of timelessness that seems to come with it." Even the track titles suggest an internal encounter with the infinite; from the koan-inspired "The Approach of Nothingness," to the "Lost Horizon" literary reference of "Glimpsing the Eternal," or "The Process of Being There," a reference to Peter Seller's masterpiece "Being There," a film about an existence which is only as long as the present moment.
The music on PROCESS OF BEING was created through a skillful blend of acoustic and electronic instruments and effects, and interestingly, no keyboards whatsoever were used to create these soundscapes. Synths were instead played via an electronic wind-controller, and of course the masterful flute textures that are the trademark of any Zero Ohms release are in full bloom throughout.
