Dreamtime Return is a 1988 double album by American ambient musician Steve Roach. Based on Australian Aboriginal culture and the concept of Dreamtime, it was largely inspired by an expedition Roach took to the Cape York Peninsula with a team of filmmakers producing a documentary about Aboriginal rock art. Production on the album began in 1986 and lasted two years. It is the album with which Roach feels he "came into [his] own as an artist".
