Roe: A journey into the deep, beyond the bounds of ambient music.


Roe was born in Milan, Italy, and lives near that city.

He began composing music on his Mac in 2005, when he discovered Garageband and since then he has not stopped, despite performing a completely different job.

He's a pretty omnivorous listener to pretty much everything from classical to opera, from Dixieland to free jazz, from blues to pop, from progressive to rock, from folk singer to the great tradition of Italian and International music. His favorites singers are John Lennon and... Ludwig van Beethoven.

In the area of electronic-ambient he remains dazzled by Ricochet and Rubycon of Tangerine Dream, by Ambient 4: On Land of Brian Eno, and laterly by the works of Harold Budd, Robert Rich, Tetsu Inoue and Pete Namlook.

He has studied guitar from some years now but music composition takes away much of the time that he wanted to dedicate to this practising this instrument.

Roe also played drums in an ordinary bossa nova band for a couple of years. His former job of a graphic designer helps in designing the covers for his albums.
