ELIODE…
Andrew Chalk and Timo van Luijk made their first firm steps as a duo with 2011’s ‘Echos Pastoraux’ (La Scie Doree). A collection of short fragments, the album had the sentiments of a homely sketchbook memory. Since then they have released a steady string of albums incorporating an elaborate repertoire of delicate acoustic and electronic sounds, weaving a rich tapestry of impressionistic pastel shades and shimmering opalescent rays. In concert, Chalk and van Luijk focus their attention on one or two chosen instruments and naturally employ a more reductionist approach, allowing slow phrases to intertwine and repeat through the duration. At Islington Mill they will be joined by Tom James Scott who has collaborated with them a number of times in the past, both on record and in a live setting.

“Reizen takes inspiration from Andrew Chalk’s stately environmental recordings and transposes the approach to solo electric guitar using looped phrases and a variety of strategies that range from bowed/teased string work through full-on psych face-offs.” – Volcanic Tongue
