A dark-ambient magma flow of ultra deep harmonic immersion. This is the next chapter in the evolution of Steves rapturous long-form zone-worlds. Moving beyond the drone form, Fade to Gray is a consciousness-activating, 74-minute space of slowly churning, shifting harmonic alchemy. Subterranean sonics emerge rich with visual correlations, deep below the Earths surface, monitored and amplified into an above-ground listening space. Steve approached Fade to Gray as if working on a large scale canvas or as a sculptor, shaping etheric material into sonic form through the tactile process offered by his analog hardware-based studio. Beyond the immersive environment experience, the music also functions on several levels. At low volume and infinite playback, Fade to Gray is highly effective for hypnogogic travel and sleep. At a higher volume, on a sound system that supports the emotional impact of full resolution playback, the sensation of a surreal, symphonic movement is magnified, expressing texture, mood, and emotion at a cellular level.
