Biography

"Landforms sounds quietly majestic, like an ancient river slowly carving out nooks and crannies into the landscape of your mind" - Monorail "Each moment like another movement from the same symphony or tone poem" - The Skinny "Gentle and fragile melancholy, alternates with polyphonic and penetrating pieces. If you close your eyes, you can almost feel the heat and cold from the water's edge" - Gezeitenstrom ‘Landforms’ is the second album by Scottish duo Kinbrae, the recording pseudonym of twins Andy and Mike Truscott, and this latest release follows the band’s acclaimed debut ‘Tidal Patterns’. The new album explores the River Tay, its surrounding landscape and the impact growing up on its banks had on the brothers. Released on new London-based label Truant Recordings, ‘Landforms’ builds on the band’s debut release and sees the brothers move away from the more traditional modern classical timbre they have recently produced. Built around Andy’s synthesizer and percussion and Mike’s brass melodies and harmonies the album also sees the band experiment with modular equipment, effected field recordings and sampling to create a sonically diverse and intriguing sound. The majority of the album was recorded at Edinburgh based musician Ben Chatwin’s home studio, where the twins had the opportunity to be more sonically adventurous and use modular synthesizers and effects to shape much of the sounds on the album.
