Synthesist Steve Roach let us know that SoundQuest Fest, described as ‘an international gathering of sonic innovators and ambient architects’, is scheduled for March 26-28, 2021.

For fans of ambient and space music genres, SoundQuest Fest offers a unique opportunity to see and hear masters at work. The event, created by Roach, evolved from a live festival, originally held in Tucson, Arizona in 2010.

The free electronic music festival – to be broadcast via Youtube –  will feature a continuous flow of streamed ambient music performances, ‘audio-video wonder worlds’ and more.

“The Soundquest Fest mission is to create 3 days of global connection, togetherness, and inspiration,” notes Roach, “through the power of sound and vision, during this consequential and unique moment in time.”

This year’s event will feature a who’s who of ambient and experimental electronic music artists, including:

• Robert Rich
• Steve Roach
• Michael Stearns
• Erik Wøllo
• Ian Boddy
• Jeff Greinke
• Chuck van Zyl

  Chris Meyer (Alias Zone)
