More Info

“Here it comes! The follow-up to "serpent age", the highly acclaimed first CD by the australian artist David Tonkin, the man behind Isomer. Isomer does not remain in the field of dark rhythmic ambience; with the second release it explores new fields. This CD brings a blend mixture of classical industrial elements, power electronic noises and ritual soundscapes...it still has its very own touch and varies its style often but never losses the thin red led of an extraordinary brilliance in recording. Follow Isomer into the Zero lounge.” [label description]

“The "Serpent Age" release is a grandiose exercise of 'Black Ambient' excesses. Majestic sweeping passages of haunting dispirited sounds, distilled throughout its eight tracks, drags you kicking into a musical world pitched in total darkness. Echoes reverberate and throb whilst minuscule glitches fight for your attention. Fragments of a barely audible beat dissolve around intricate patterns of electronic waveforms. "Serpent Age" is recommended to be heard at night with the lights turned out and with no outside interference. Under these conditions it comes alive and envelopes you like a tender lover, holding and squeezing you tightly, never letting you go. Try it. You'll see what I'm getting at. This is one of the finest examples of 'Black Ambient' music I've heard in many a long time and, of course, is mega highly rated. Nice one Isomer. Nice one Tesco.“ [Aural Pressure]
