Out of stock

Beautiful new album by Andrew Chalk and Timo Van Luyk (with Daisuke Suzuki on percussions and Ian Middleton on "accidental sounds"). Andrew Chalk is one of the most appreciate musician in this category floating between drone and ambient music, and his meeting with Timo Van Luijk has created an amazing disc, able to emphasize the slow, limited gestures, movements elegiac elegance, but still so heavily controlled. Each faint seems to have a gesture meaning. Here you can hear a flute (connected to a discrete pedal) and another to the synthesizer (a antediluvian Roland Analog, armed with pedals), both building dreamy and resonant tones, playing with silence

"There are eleven pieces all of which vary in their instrumentation and structure. At the same time, there is an overwhelming cohesiveness to the procedures that nicely ties the whole LP together. I actually am reminded a bit of the first Tart LP in which we tried a number of different approaches. Elodie's sound is much more tranquil. Echos Pastoraux is a superb LP of glimpses from another time, another place. If you enjoy the music of either of these fine fellows, you will not be disappointed. If you do not enjoy their music, perhaps a serious personal inventory is in order" Swill Radio
