One of Rich's best albums and an amazing one in which to get lost, Below Zero is darker than some of his other works and has a vast sense of scale--there are massive surrealist soundscapes, clouds of shifting metallic overtones, and sinuous sound threads running throughout. It also represents a significant technical achievement; Rich's sound design includes phase vocoding and granular synthesis, as well as open-loop feedback networks, and chaotic electro-acoustic systems. Somehow all this technology and melancholy come together to create an intense beauty that permeates Rich's singular sonic universe. Really, there are few albums that approach this level.
