Steve Roach”s new purely atmospheric statement hovers within a warm and embracing expression of etheric ambience.
One Day of Forever pulls back the layers of memory, time and perception to express life”s amber-lit emotions, continuing an intimate, mystical-revealing vision within Roach”s work.

In this one day of forever the meditation on longing, nostalgia, connection, loss, grace and gratitude transmutes from fleeting moments, forming into gentle epiphanies. This album furthers the refined intention within the elemental approach first expressed on his previous 2CD,
Reflections in Repose.

The pieces began with a minimal collection of instruments leading to emotive sonic choices which paint the impressionistic realm contained in each of the album”s five long-form pieces. The core of the release is built around the beguiling sound of the Mellotron (originally an English electro-mechanical musical instrument developed in 1963, but here performed on a new Swedish digital version) and emotional warmth of the Oberheim OB-X8.

Steve reflects, ”This music reaches towards the moments between moments, leading to the eternal now. Each day provides the opportunity to connect to a sense and knowing of forever in our own individual ways; it lives within my ears, eyes, heart and soul, nourished by the ineffable and my desire is to embrace each day … into forever.”
