Isan

Antony Ryan and Robin Saville have been releasing music as Isan since 1996. Having recorded in the past for various labels (and whilst still enjoying the occasional dalliance) they now consider Morr their spiritual home.

Now based in Southend and Wiltshire respectively, Robin and Antony work separately from each other most of the time, communicating via post and internet. Periodically notes are compared and directions noted, the end result is a hopefully coherent body of work for which the pair consider themselves jointly responsible...

The Isan live experience has been in existence for a few years now. Seemingly based around a large tangle of wires and an ever-growing collection of lucky cats, Isan can occasionally be seen squinting into the lights around the uk and further afield.

In addition to maintaining his half of the Isan bargain, Robin also releases tunes by some of his favourite artists on his own label, Arable records.
