53Guitarman Great compilation of interesting soundscapes. It's cool to hear the original zones that appeared with extra layers on great albums. These zones stand up on their own as well. Great job Steve! Favorite track: Tool Making with the Cloud Watcher.

pileated31 Wow! This is my favorite among the Subscriber Exclusive releases thus far. Steve has done a masterful job of selecting and weaving these zones together. A peaceful and mind expanding flow. Sounds fresh yet nostalgic.

Thank you so much.
Deep gratitude.

rikm A fantastic collection of foundational work from the Timeroom, nascent pieces that would inform later works yet remain just as beautiful and inspiring on their own...

dcgunman This album reflects back a lot of memories for me. “On This Planet” is my favorite Steve Roach in person live concert. Less than a year earlier (Nov 1996) I saw Steve live for the first time in a coffee shop near the beach in Santa Monica. Long story short... I happened to be in Phoenix (oldest sons soccer tournament) the weekend of Steve’s Center For The Arts in Tucson, AZ. Purchased ticket at Ticketmaster store in one of the malls in Phoenix AZ. Drove south to Tucson and I never looked b

Greetings exclusive friends
What we have in Zone Offerings is a collection of foundation zones from various albums - 90’s into 2000.
My creative approach in how the music is born is always in flux as the inspiration can arrive through many different modes.
The consistent fire starter is what I have referred to in the cataloging process for years - the creation of zones, soundworlds, Atmosphere, drones etc. These can also be rhythmic, abstract sources, modular experiments, there is no boundaries at this stage. When something comes through that speaks of a moment in time, even if it's a minimal expression this can hold the energy to inspire the creative imagination and drive a piece into full bloom.

Through the process of exploring and carving away in the studio with my intentions driving the process, these highly potent, transportive spaces are almost always the foundation that sets a piece in motion. As the composition process evolves these the foundations are often absorbed into a bigger picture. I have always enjoyed returning to the original seed of the piece, and now I can share these with you.

These offerings present the original foundation before any rhythmic or other elements were added. Zone Offerings is the first of many releases premiered here (these might see release in world someday) that will present core of what would be a fully developed piece. This series will eventually include rhythmic - sequencer and beyond foundations as well. Hope you enjoy this perspective!

Tool making with the Cloud Watcher
This is the foundation zone for Cloudwatching with the Toolmaker from On This Planet.
This my voice in there…the dreamer descends into his own depths…

Offering in Waves
The soundworld from the piece Offering in Waves found on The Serpents Lair.

The Reflecting Gene Pool,
A nucleotidepool of electro spawn that would propagate life to the release Body Electric.

Nexus Zone Passage
From On This Planet, this is blend of sources from that period.

On This Planet original zone
The the original 24 min mass wall of purifying Oberheim synth beauty that still engulfs the planet and Timehouse on a daily basis.

Vine, Bark and Spore - The Holy Dirt zone
The music is the medicine. A shapeshifting psychoactive brew about to boil over as Jorge and I drink from the sonic cup and divine the audio magic.

Realm Essence
This is the original live in the studio capture that would inspire the album Light Fantastic
