Elka - Motion Still by Joanna Koolman
published on
These are a few examples of my project 'Elka', which naturally developed whilst working on the Golden Rabbit project as I started to separate my love of analogue synths from the more traditional song base of a singer-songwriter. It was also at a time when using 'words' in song was too painful for me, so I just wanted to let the music speak on my behalf instead. The practice of this was very cathartic and healing, and helped to get me though some very tough years. I originally wanted to keep this project purely analogue, but I realise now that introducing elements of humans (voice, intruments)and sounds of nature/life add a further depth that I would like to develop more. Out of these tracks, 'Quarry' is the best example of combining the two elements together.
