Robert Rich - Vestiges (Full Album, 2016)

[@luciushickson4892]

I draw comics. And when I draw them, I like listening to Rich. His melodies inspire me and are the soundtracks of my comics.

[@CreationK.]

Very cool my friend, very cool! For me, it’s making movies, or even reading the bible whilst listening to these things :)

[@DmytroShostakZvirshiki]

you draw comics, and yet your channel has no content, no info about you or any links to your work. You should fix that, friend, get some tangential exposure from this comment.

You can never go wrong with Robert Rich. The guy is one of the few ambient kingpins in songwriting!

[@Afurthyclays]

Wallow mad about it then, rootscontra. Go stand over there, fun sucker!

[@DRayL_]

Robert Rich has been doing it right for many years now.

[@einexile]

Robert Rich is bedrock. Better and better virtually every time he shows up. An absolute colossus of an artist, and this record is one of the high points. Long life and good health to this man who has given more tranquility to the world than anyone can measure.

[@BreanneGuilbert]

Agreed 100 percent, of all his work this has so far been my favorite. I marvel at thinking of his methods of creation.

[@Afurthyclays]

Steve Roach Robert Rich Jonn Serrie Patrick O'Hearn My "Four Horsemen" of dark/ambient music! Without these amazing artists, my life would be a lot more stressful.

[@einexile]

@@Afurthyclays I never heard Jonn Serrie before, thanks for this. My other three would be Oöphoi, Szymon Kaliski, and Alio Die. The album Alio Die did with Robert Rich is particularly good. His collaborations with Saffron Wood and Lingua Fungi are also excellent. Side-eye here to William Basinski, who I listen to more than any of these people but I really shouldn't.

[@Jonathan-mt9up]

This music helps sooth away the harshness of this dystopian modern world. I can’t tune it out completely, but can detune away its sharp bite if but for a moment.

[@Xenilolix]

Jon I can escape into the ether as well by listening to Loscil

[@SelfHealingGod]

It's like being suck into another invisible world, dreamy and safe journey. Far away from this world gone wrong.

[@MrDamburger]

yes indeed... his music is a sonic gift like steve roach

[@SelfHealingGod]

It's slows down life...My opinion.

[@TheSynthZone]

Both are modern masters of ambient and both are imitated by many. I can see why this is so.

[@jwichmann1306]

it just seems slow because everything else is so fast.

[@sebastianjones29]

Yeah I totally agree him and Steve Roach plus John Serrie are damn good at taking me far away from this mad world

[@simonpsychosis2812]

Robert Rich could make a polka record and it would still somehow manage to be emotionally jarring. To be making records this good, this far into his career, is inspiring.

[@SelfHealingGod]

Nicely said, he is an amazing sound engineer and does mastering for other artiste as well. Very humble artiste.

[@simonpsychosis2812]

Thanks. I love this guy.

[@drunkroku4054]

Robert Rich polka album, now THAT I would like to hear! (hahaha) He is a very nice, accessible, guy, too. I was drunk one night and we chatted a bit on Facebook.

[@bessi6503]

i always find myself coming back to this album

[@afrikablize]

to this day

[@Afurthyclays]

If you guys like this, you'll probably LOVE Robert Rich's release, Humidity.

[@coldsideofthesun]

This takes me back to the Stalker album from 1995 - ethereal, mysterious, haunting; a dark and empty world that Rich and Lustmord made beautiful in its decay. There was never anything else quite like it, until Vestiges. Wonderful to hear these sounds again.

[@ParalyzedSociety]

It´s also the artwork that reminds on Stalker

[@guabiju803]

Echoes of Small Things was also a great piece.

[@sentauros7]

i've been looking for this . . . this feeling . . . since i was about what . . . 3 years old? and i lived in this dark and humid house carved in rock . . . and i remembering listening to something similar to this intro . . . damn i need this on cd . . .

[@paulhoughton5164]

I’ve never heard of Robert rich before coming across this but I’m gonna look for more. I love ambient music and there’s a lot out there that is just dull rehashing of the same stuff but this has a different feel. There is just enough melody to engage but enough space for you to drift and fill in with your own thoughts and pictures. Loving this

[@epiphoney]

He has some more active albums like Neurogenesis and Filaments. There's even a computer animated dvd with surround sound called Atlas Dei. Plus some drone-y 7 hour sleep albums like Somnium. He uses just intonation tuning. "Coils" could almost be a hit single. He even sang with a band called Amoeba.

[@justdev8965]

Wow well I suppose that's one way to put it Paul. Well said dude.

[@alexgabriel5423]

To Your Health and a Long Happy Life Mr Rich!! You re very Special Artist! I wish to get to see you one good day!

[@jimreid963]

I have listened to a lot of Ambient music, old and new. I had not listened to any of Richs work until this album. I have to say that in my own personal opinion this is the one I come back to time and time again. I consider this album to be one of the best pieces of Ambient work I have listened to.

[@whataway8180]

How to disappear completely is a good one too

[@jimreid963]

@@whataway8180 yes I agree with your choice of that album, it’s a while since I listened to that one. U tube has been a breath of fresh air for many , including myself for giving people a chance to see what’s out there. 👍

[@jamesbrock1830]

one of roberts best.had to buy cd after first listen

[@kevinwilkinson2972]

These are very powerful soundscapes. So very beautiful and other worldly. I'm very impressed with these recordings. I'm going to treating myself to a CD copy of this.

[@matthieusavary4507]

Love the whole piece, but specialy the last part from 49' til the end. Great work ! I love to alternate this music with even darker pieces (such Daikan, Permafrost or Nuuk from Thomas Köner), it's like a very deep, slow and meditative breathing (Köner : the air goes out, Rich : it comes back slowly... It's a bit strange to describe, but that's the way I feel it).

[@Afurthyclays]

Matthieu Savary Lustmord & Matthias Grassow are a couple of other dark ambient composers you might like, if you haven't heard of them already.

[@aryuish]

Me encanta el trabajo de Rich, lo uso para meditar. Sólo me dejo llevar por el sonido.

[@rr7firefly]

Aside from the music the cover image is wonderfully enigmatic: dark landscape form reflecting man-made dwelling in the mist.

[@Claudestar1]

Great album, thank you.

[@irismueller4131]

Very mystikal ! Emotions from an other Planet, i think.!

[@markbanning514]

Thanks for posting this. I love it and I'm going to buy it! This could be my favorite RR album in a long time.

[@markbanning514]

So glad I bought this! Perfect backdrop for rainy Northern California soundscape. As soon as it's over, I want to put in back on again. Better sound quality than streaming (obviously).

[@Freeman4815]

It's... God fookin' damn it, it's so strange and beautiful and surrealistic and... It's like soundtrack to my current life. Amazing.

[@Descalabro]

I wasn't able to enjoy _Perpetual_ that much, I felt it was too homogeneous when compared to _Somnium_ but _Vestiges_ although much shorter feels to me like an extension of the atmosphere in _Somnium_ Italics don't seem to work with punctuation...

Its like a dying love that u try to grasp on to desperately but its slowly but surely pulling away. The vestiges of something beautiful that u once held in your hand.

What's that hammering? It sounds like somebody outside is building a damn garage. Outside the studio like. And he probably thought hey that's too good to cut so I'll just leave that bit of tape right there where it is. That's Art.

having watched a lot of Adam Neely videos lately (cue rhythmic expectations and entrainment) I'd suspect the effect it has is to slow down the expectations of the listener

Steve Annaert try the godfather of ambient, Brian Eno. Especially his album The Pearl. Also look up Loscil. Good luck!
