about

So it’s 2016 and when Stroom.tv and Kunstencentrum Vooruit joined hands to organise that year’s Full Moon Healing they asked Bruno Coussée (Manngold, Rheinzand) to provide an opening act for headliners Gigi Masin and Laraaji. He then turned to Marcus Scheibmaier and Steve Slingeneyer (One Man Party, WWWater, ex-Soulwax) explaining his vision for a musical poem, a sonic tale of the Universe so the three embarked on a journey being joined by visual artist Lies Dierckx , her refreshing ideas and imagery becoming a main character in the concept and E I L A N D was born.

The four worked out a plot that became a succes live at the event, immersing the magnificent Domzaal from Kunstencentrum Vooruit in a simmering bath of audio-visual radiation. They then decided to have the whole experience properly recorded in both sound and vision, resulting in the E I L A N D album and movie.

So now, we’re at the end of 2018 and the E I L A N D album will be released thanks to Wool-E Discs and its Belgian NeuMusik imprint, true home of the Belgian Kosmische Kuriere.

The sound of E I L A N D can be described as “Ambient structures folding into organic pulses urging into ancient prayers creating mechanical arpeggiated polygons crashing in deep space releasing cosmic emptiness”, all this in a mere forty minutes still leaving you time to do the dishes or feed the cat.

A tour of the screening of the E I L A N D movie will take place in 2019 having its premiere on the release of the album on the B-Wave Festival in Heusden-Zolder on December the 1st 2018, in the honourable company of peers like Pyramaxx, Erik Wollo and the great Michael Stearns.

E I L A N D is dedicated to the memory of Patrick "Kosmos" Wille-De Wael, Rest In Space.
