‘in this moment for days’, from Daniel Liam Glyn’s latest LP ‘WHEN THE DEVIL DRIVES’, is a slice of indie dream pop reverie that lifts the tones of retro-futurism to a plateau of pure euphonic bliss. Downtempo electronica, trip-hop, and synth-pop coalesce in distinctive flux, offering tranquillity as you’ve never experienced, yet a dreamy palette you’ll compel yourself to acquaint yourself with, time and time again.
Ethereal dream-pop vocals echo tenderness into the release, wrapping delicately around the beauty of preserving perfect moments. The single grasps these ephemeral instants tightly, praying the romance found within small details stays clear from memory’s obscurity. It’s a soundtrack to bliss in every true sense, gentle yet unshakably memorable.
Daniel Liam Glyn, a Manchester-born composer renowned for sinking synaesthesia into his compositions, channels his unique visual perception of colour and sound directly into ‘in this moment for days’. Influenced by the contemporary minimalist styles of composers like Erik Satie and Steve Reich, Glyn transforms abstract mental hues into tangible sonic landscapes. His latest album navigates themes of mental health, hazy recollections, and fleeting serenity, and nowhere is this balance clearer than in this dreamy soundscape—an invitation to pause, reflect, and remain in emotional suspension.
‘in this moment for days’ is now available to stream on all major platforms, including Spotify.
