Concept
As the title implies, Destination Beyond is a meditation on motion and the infinite point on the horizon that can never be reached. The album includes a small introspection on this theme. Roach writes that the "magnetic pull and drive towards the point on the horizon, towards the destination beyond . . . remains a constant theme and impetus in my life."[2]
Production
Destination Beyond was created with analog synthesizers using real-time processing to produce a "pure natural flow."[3]
