Eskallonia Kwiksilva (sometimes appearing as Escallonia Quicksilver, depending on the mood swings and they were frequent) is convinced that he’s chanced upon Planet Earth while passing through. If you listen to some of his other-worldy stuff, you may opine a similar judgement. He once spent hours changing a bagpipe sound into an electric guitar with a wah-wah effect. Completely hat-stand!

His electro-industrial landscapes match his warped mental imagery.
He’s often praising a program from the 90s, called ‘Groovemaker’ and says he loves Skittles and H.

He’s very much the go-to man for ambient or sequenced tracks, though he’s not averse to ignoring the computer totally. There’s a wealth of material, including Curse of the North Pole (97) with its weird delay-filters, the ambient soundscapes like Loutrophoros & Aches & Cale (2021) & the ambitious Entasi Chronou (2021). He’s currently collaborating on the DSP project, working on Optostatic, Castellabate, Drude of Skellington &Entropic Prince. Delirium!
