Tomorrow

Even the impact of COVID couldn’t slow Steve Roach – if anything perhaps it gave him even more time to compose and create, and 2020’s Tomorrow, recorded in spring and summer of that first terrible year, was one of the most engaging and inspiring releases of his long career. With a deep texture and sense of interwoven layers that his sometimes more straightforward if still striking improvisations don’t always capture, Tomorrow showed that Roach’s gift for electronic composition and compelling mood remained as strong as ever.
