Friday, April 17, 2026 – Echoes Program 2615E

On a Slow Flow Echoes we step into the Ambient Church to hear Steve Roach and his concert recorded live at a New York City church. It’s a set that covers music from across his career. We’ll drop into a long track from his more recent modular synth phase. We’ll also hear Rena Jones and Kilo Watts from their album, Force Multiplier. They combine their electronics as well as Rena’s multiple classical string instruments. It’s in the current of a Slow Flow Echoes.

Electronic artist Craig Padilla and guitarist Marvin Allen have released a quartet of albums that traverse the world of ambient, progressive rock and psychedelic music. Their latest is Unfolding Skies. It is Echoes April CD of the Month. Its cosmic sounds were all recorded in Craig Padilla’s living room.
Craig Padilla: “We did the first song, and when it was done, Marvin goes, ‘Padilla, make another sequence.’ And so he and my wife would go into the kitchen and just talk and I’d be out here just working on some other song ideas and then he’d go, ‘Ooh, that sounds good.’”
Craig Padilla and Marvin Allen talk about their journey and reveal the story behind “Jammin’ with Buddha.”
Read John Diliberto’s review of Unfolding Skies and explore the Echoes CD of the Month Club.
