Release Notes
Ixland is the debut album
by Indigo Egg / a.k.a Ishq / Matt Hillier.
Originally written in the late 90's and subsequently shelved and worked
on over the years, Ixland has now finally found it's way onto CD in
a remastered and finished version.
The album highlights
the early beginnings of the artist Matt Hillier and Ishq and documents
his early work when he was based and working/recording from a semi-squatted
location in the UK called No1, a meeting point for weirdos and freaks.
The album is itself the result of many late night sessions and early
mornings and a melting pot of the free festival / early psychedelic
ambient sound which is still highlighted in Matt's work.
The album is a
colourful and both melodic and also tripped out serious of tracks
all forming one fluid vision with hints of everything from electro
alien harmonics to tibetan cities in the clouds. Organic and deep,
yet with hints of the lightness and beauty which have found their
way into the music of Ishq.
