Welcome to the World of ISLE, the members-only platform of creative duo ISLE.
I had a few days off this week, and it has turned into a week of slowing down. I slept in, leisurely strolled through town with my daughter, ate outside, and today I went for a bike ride in the sunshine.
To be honest, I needed this. I feel more sane when I slow down and stop for a minute. Inspiration more readily shows up, and I feel a deep sense of calm and well-being. That is noteworthy, because I have a tendency to keep running, to keep striving for the best I can achieve, resulting in me often being restless.
I love watching movies. Especially the ones that let you discover new places and let you engage with people that experience life differently.
Today we met up in Utrecht to talk about our future plans. So far we have always done everything DIY, and we feel that with our new album it is time to expand our horizon and see if we can work with a manager, a label, a publisher and a live agent. We have had a wonderful conversation with someone we are looking to work with, so that is very positive, and we are looking forward to what the future will bring!
I went for a walk in the forest this morning. I have not been home for 48 hours yet, and I feel the aftershock of the shows. The impact is creative inspiration, and I am feeling it like a big wave, a heart full of lightness and a head full of ideas. The ideas are ninety percent abstract, and don’t offer themselves into something concrete to write or create yet. Do you know this feeling? You know you are inspired, and it’s a great feeling, but it’s all very abstract.
What a night! We played our new show Equilibrium last Saturday. The theatre was full, and so were our hearts, thank you to everyone who came, for being a part of it! When we finished playing, the three of us went behind the curtain and shared a long hug. The kind of hug that comes from just having experienced something special together.
