Biography:
Rekalix is Andrew Lintern, ambient electronica composer/producer from Southampton, UK, and has been creating ambient music, and performing it live since the age of 18. His creations fuse atmospheric soundscapes with delicately manipulated sounds, to create minimal, melodic sculptures of ambience on a back drop of relaxed rhythm. This style of ambient music allows those who listen to appreciate the senses that certain sounds can awaken inside them. As well as producing these distant soundscapes, he also runs the UK side of Kuurort Records, a label that focuses on music with a faraway sound. Based in Estonia since 2002, Kuurort Records is now expanding to the UK as it grows ever larger.
Rekalix joined Kuurort Records in 2006, when playing at a large festival in Tallinn, Estonia, and consequently meeting up with label owner Kaido Kirikmae, a well known character in the Baltic ambient/electronic scene. Following this, his debut album, 'Zykancialuu' was released by Kuurort. Later in 2006, one of the songs from this album also featured on the Kuurort Records compilation 'Kuumaastikud'.
2007 brought more one night indoor events, and festival appearances across Europe. Earlier in the year, Rekalix had befriended the UK based White Label Music, and after being asked to do a release for them, the latest Rekalix album 'Frozen Planet' was released on WLM in August 2007. Following its release, 'Frozen Planet' went on to receive a numer of very promising and highly impressive reviews, mostly from ambient and soundscape related zines and website.
