Kinbrae is the musical project of twin brothers Andy and Mike Truscott, who grew up in the countryside of Fife and are now based in Edinburgh and Dundee, Scotland. Kinbrae take their influence from minimalist, classical and ambient music. Inspired by the remote Isle of Coll in Scotland, Tidal Patterns is an album that explores remoteness, seclusion and the feelings that these can evoke. The album makes use of the unique sounds that can be heard on the island, gathered through field recordings depicting the wildlife, culture and ambience of the remote region. These field recordings have been complemented by rich orchestral scores. From a starting point of piano and brass, the brothers have augmented their arrangements to include a range of instruments including strings, synthesizers, kalimbas and various other instruments.
