 ''...My new album is called “What We Left Behind” and it imagines a journey on the wing of a messenger with black feathers, showing me the future. The crow is like a spirit guide in this dream, or a bit like the moment in Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” when the Ghost of Christmas Future shows Scrooge his own funeral, and Scrooge realizes nobody misses him. In my vision, the earth is doing just fine without humans, and the harm that we caused, the massive extinction event, climate change, lingering radioactivity… all of that has faded in a million years. New minds have evolved, new problems perhaps. We were just a part of the flow of life. Our extinction (which we caused) is just a blink in the memory of deep time. Our arrogance about consciousness and our creative minds…nobody remembers it. If there is sadness in the album, it is merely a regret that we are not around to see the future, because of our self-destructive tendencies. Something else will come up in time, do a better job in its moment. In this sense I think the ideas of Olaf Stapledon play a large role. In “Starmaker“ we take a journey across many planets and millennia, we see the repeated evolution and destruction of beautiful things. I tried to capture a blend of the beauty, wonder and sadness of that idea. In particular, I wanted this album to feel true on a human scale, because it is our mind that is traveling on the wing of the messenger, and it is our emotion that we must communicate. I am not making this album for creatures in a million years, I am making this for us, because it is a vision that feels true to me, a recurrent dream that will not go away...'' - http://ambientvisions.com/robertrichwhatweleftbehind.htm WebSite | CDBaby Tracklist: 1.
