Isolde

National Flag

Isolde is yet another side project from the ever fascinating Andrew Chalk. This time he joins forces with Robin Barnes to create soundscapes of dark beauty; creepy and disturbing (and noisy) at times and completely hypnotizing at others. Although it's not as minimalist as Thomas Köner's cold and desolate compositions, I find the two share similar artistic visions where cold and austere places retain an obvious poetic quality. Absolutely engrossing and absorbing if you can get past the unwelcoming surface.
