  Hi all,
  This looks like a "don't miss" show. I've heard Robert Rich's stuff. 
  He is a master of electronic ambience.

  >Space, including Rainforest (1989), Gaud=ED (1991), Propagation (1994) 
  >and Seven Veils (1998). His two collaborations with Steve Roach, 
  >Strata (1990) and Soma (1992), both charted for several months in 
  >Billboard. Other collaborations include Yearning (1995, with Lisa 
  >Moskow), Stalker (1995, with B. Lustmord) and Fissures (1997, with 
  >Alio Die.) Rich's contributions to multi-artist compilations have

  >and Below Zero (1998). He also records with his group, Amoeba, 
  >exploring atmospheric songcraft on their CDs Watchful (1997) and 
  >Pivot (2000). His 3-CD live set Humidity (2000) documents the unique 
  >improvised flow of his recent performances.

  >Rich has performed in caves, cathedrals, planetaria, art galleries

  >Sleep Concerts, first performed in 1982, became legendary in the San

  >during a three month tour. In 2001 Rich released the 7 hour DVD 
  >Somnium, a studio distillation of the Sleep Concert experience,
