    "Island of Dust" is the new album from talented multi-instrumentalist Nick Parkin, a London, England musician well known for his collaborations with TUU on their 1997 albums "Terma" and "Mesh" (Fathom) as well as his participation in the in the group Stillpoint on their 1995 album "Maps Without Edges" (City of Tribes).Listening to "Island of Dust" brings to mind dark textural soundscapes and desolate windswept landscapes. Layered instrumentals create a brooding evocation of a harsh terrain harboring mythical subterranean regions, glimpsing sunken eroding fragments exposed by light and wind.Nick Parkin works freelance as a musician and composer for dance and theatre companies in the UK and Europe. His work has primarily involved using acoustic instruments in combination with electronics and synthesizers, samples and effects processors. He also uses prerecorded material derived from instrumental and environmental sounds. Much of his work is evocative of elemental and landscape themes.This is Nick Parkin's second solo project. Besides the aforementioned collaboration albums he released "Descent" (Hic Sunt Leones) in 1996.
