Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1987 Original. "Western Spaces," a collaborative album by Steve Roach, Kevin Braheny, and Richard Burmer, stands as a monument within the ambient music genre. Released in 1987, it captures the serene yet haunting expanse of the American West through a rich tapestry of electronic soundscapes. Roach brings his signature atmospheric textures, enveloping the listener in vast sonic vistas. Braheny’s contributions on the Lyricon wind synth add a human touch to the otherwise alien terrain. Burmer’s orchestral sensibilities layer the compositions with an emotional depth, bridging the gap between the stark beauty of nature and the introspective mind of the listener.
