So unique and beautiful. This music is proof that some the greatest art is created in trying times. This album deserves to be a classic that's revisited for years to come.
I have not found the right words yet to express what this music brought me. All I know is that I instantly cried my eyes out during the intro song. When the drums of the second song set in I felt replenished dancing but I then knew I had not left the "underwater worlds" just jet. This time I was floating. I love this album, thank you Lindy and dei farne!!!!
Stunning effort, gonna be ordering this physically when I can! The album is so immersive, every song flows like a river to the next, hope y’all can visit the states for a tour eventually. ❤😌
I truly love Lindy's voice and work, she possesses one the most amazing and powerful present-day Scandinavian female voices. But there is something about the role of Dei Farne in the duo that has been somehow mysterious to me, maybe much more on this album than in other works. I have thought he played keyboards with Lindy, as we can see see on the "Los" live video, where he seems to be playing amazing layers of synths. But here, on 'Islet' his participation is not credited on the technical info... Is that a mistake or omission about Dei Farne on this album ? As I'm also a musician, I feel I need to know more details about the music I'm listening to and who is playing what. Thank you very much and my apologies if I'm intruding in something I shouldn't. My best regards and congratulations for 'Islet' !

@@lindy-fayhella395 - Dear Lindy, thank you very, very much for your attention and kindness sending me all the detailed information above. Then, I deduce that Dei Farne is the artistic pseudonym of Roy Ole Forland, who plays most of the synths and keyboards, am I right ? Now that's clear to me. Thousands of congratulations for your great work, awesome voice, beauty and kindness. Best regards from your admirer here in distant Rio de Janeiro, South America.
