Special guest

A special guest on the album is Marjolijn Kaiser, she recorded a few pipa (4-stringed Chinese lute) parts in a song about the fall of a Chinese dynasty. Apart from the pipa, we also used the erhu, which is a 2-stringed Chinese violin.

Recordings

Hunting for significance is recorded at The Granny Attic Studios, the drums are recorded at The Toolshed in Opmeer (The Netherlands).

Hunting for Significance

Illumion is recording their first album right now. It will contain 12 original songs, mainly inspired by travelling experiences (Hungary, China, a dive in the cold cold North Sea…) and books of authors/poets like Oscar Wilde, Edgar Allan Poe, Franz Kafka and William Blake. The turn of events is one of the main themes of the songs, as well as the fading dividing line between reality and fantasy. And, of course, the great experience of tree-hugging will have a prominent place in our music :))

Hunting for significance will be as diverse as a broad-leaved forest in autumn. We hope to finish the album as soon as possible!
