Originally released on CD and cassette only in 1995, ‘Now & Forever’ saw Kim and producer brother Ricki move away from the pop-orientated sound of previous albums, towards a more contemporary electronic soul vibe. A hook up with London-based DJ producer and remixer C.J. Mackintosh (M/A/R/R/S, Nasty Rox Inc.) on four of the tracks helped seal the deal on an album that absorbed influences from gospel house, blissed-out dance and de rigeur looped beats. Other writers and contributors included Pam Sheyne, who would go on to co-write ‘Genie in a Bottle’ for Christina Aguilera, and Tony Swain who as one half of Swain & Jolley had helmed R&B-inflected classics for Imagination. Over this captivating new sound bed, the Wildes provided a suite of instantly catchy melodies not least on ‘Now & Forever”s two singles ‘Breakin’ Away’ and ‘This I Swear’.
