This section of the site is intended to make available unreleased tracks from Isolation artists past and present and associated projects. These could include completed tracks, demos, works in progress or live tracks.

These tracks are available for downloading as streamed RealMedia files or, if indicated, MP3s.



The Troy Enclosure

Troy Enclosure

The debut release by The Troy Enclosure, Lucky Us, has been described in reviews as "a dark ambient oddity" and "baffling but beautiful" and has attracted regular airplay.

Chorus is one of the tracks that never made it to the final cut for the EP.

This track is an MP3.

Chorus

Recorded 2005


Astra

Astra

These are demos by Astra, who has recorded an 11-track album scheduled for release on Isolation.

While the album arrangements will include guitar, viola and keyboards, these versions mostly just feature Astra on guitar and vocals and, on the earlier recordings, viola player Abi.

The combination of viola and Astra's haunting vocals create a unique and beguiling sound.

These tracks are all MP3s.

Heliconia

Heliconia

Heliconia's debut album is scheduled for release on Isolation in early 2006. These are tracks recorded in early sessions.

Marina captures Heliconia's powerful, guitar-driven live sound, while Beat Down (Slowdown version) offers a more laidback stoner groove.

Heliconia remix by Arnaud

Heliconia

This is a remix by Arnaud of the 2003 debut Heliconia single Girl I Need You, which featured then joint-vocalist Heidi.

Arnaud takes elements from tracks Girl I Need You and Shapes In The Dark to produce a glitchy, atmospheric take on the band's sound at the time.

The slightly unusual title combines lyrics from both tracks.

This track is an MP3.
