(5 out of 5 stars) Since I discovered Steve Roach in 1995, I ve been fascinated by his unending desire to collaborate with other artists willing to push the boundaries of electronic music (calling Roach New Age is almost as silly as referring to Shania Twain as Country ). With THE MAGNIFICENT VOID, Roach began a new era of soundworlds that has culminated with BODY ELECTRIC, which is the best album I ve heard in 1999. As each track segues into the next, an entire inner universe opens up and it feels as if I ve slipped into a pool of utter Bliss. This album simply gets better and better every time I listen to it, which is amazing considering some of the landmark work that this artist has created in the last fifteen years. If you aren t into rhythmically charged music, I would certainly say to skip it, but it s not technically techno. nor is it purely moody ambient dreamscapes. It fits nicely into a netherworld of alien sounds and would be the perfect soundtrack
