Artist, Contributor

Timescape was formed in 1994 in Denmark by Kent Eskildsen who released ”One Small Step and a Giant Leap” that year. In 1996 Kent teamed up with Tony Andersen. Before joining forces Tony and Kent had each made a few solo releases of electronic music.

Tony and Kent run a recording studio each, the Nanovision Studio and the Klangshoej Studio, where they compose and record the music for Timescape.

They play a wide range of instruments as keyboards, guitars, bass, percussion and flutes. Their music explores all kinds of electronic genres - often with a laid back attitude. It is mostly instrumental, but they have teamed up with vocalist Tina S. Johansen for some of the vocal tracks.

Timescape has released more than 10 albums so far and made some appearances on compilations. They have made a few soundtracks and been involved in other musical collaborations. One of the side projects is “Navigator” which is inspired by Berlin School artists like Tangerine Dream. Timescape has also been taking their music on the road and played from small and intimate DJ sets in clubs to larger shows with additional musicians, dancers, computer graphics, lasers and video projections. Timescape has also performed with dancers from the famous Schaufuss Ballet Company and once played a support concert for Jean Michel Jarre before one of his concerts in Denmark.

In 2010 Timescape composed the music as well as performing at a big multimedia show with more than 300 actors and singers to celebrate the Cathedral of Viborg´s 950th jubilee. The show which took almost a year to complete was later broadcast on TV.

In recent years Kent has been the main driving force of Timescape regarding composing and recording as well as a live act. Tony still adds his musical and technical skills though, when time allows.
