Roach, Steve - One Day Of Forever CD
SKU
21-PRO 426-2
“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.
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 (a 1963 English instrument, but here performed on a Swedish digital version) and emotional warmth of the Oberheim OB-X8.
At the center of the album is "One Day," a stirring collaboration between Steve and electric violist Linda Kohanov resulting in a hybrid of classical and ambient undercurrents. On the closing piece additional acoustic sources add to the emotional palette of the Mellotron and Oberheim with the warm breathing timbers of Serena Gabriel's harmonium and the woven alluring strands of Linda Kohanov's electric viola. The alchemy of these organic sonorities brings another new and vital aspect to Steve's evolving ambient work.”
