Steven Hall, known musically as Nirosta Steel, has released his album 'My Skyscraper' last month. The collection features material recorded over a span of nearly four decades, from 1984 to 2025. The music on the album is characterised by its fusion of diverse genres, including disco, folk, synth-pop, and elements of Chinese opera.
Critical Acclaim for Genre-Bending Work
The album has garnered significant attention from music publications. Pitchfork described 'My Skyscraper' as 'an archival triumph and one of the year’s most thrilling new releases'. This critical reception marks a notable moment for the 69-year-old Scottish musician, who has been living near Chicago and working as an Uber driver.

Newcastle United has rejected multiple offers from Arsenal for midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, who is reportedly open to a move.
Origins of the Archival Release
The release of 'My Skyscraper' came about after a label head, impressed by Nirosta Steel's 2014 album 'Cool Fire', inquired about further material. Hall then shared a collection of unreleased songs that spanned four decades. These tracks revealed a varied career and life experiences, with connections to figures like Arthur Russell and Allen Ginsberg. The double LP is now seen as potentially elevating Hall to the status of other rediscovered artists whose work has gained recognition long after its creation.
