Bert Strolenberg –
“Mysteries of Time and Space” -released on E-Day 2026- marks Lisa’s strong debut on the established Groove Unlimited label, seeing her execute a wonderous blend of vintage sound imagery and field recordings in three extended tracks. Here, anyone looking for profound, enchanting pads and soundscapes created through modular synthesis with Moog equipment is in for a great treat: the 62-minute result sees an expert blend of Bella Donna’s signature ambient work and Berlin-school analogue synths merged with the water element, celestial winds and vaporous Asian atmospheres. You might even call it an astral sanctuary, a tranquil landscape for your dreams. Aside its timeless, untouched nature, the music’s overall depth, tenderness, calm and slow enveloping intrinsic magic is perceived even more when listened to with quality headphones. Bravo, Lisa!
Rating: 4 stars out of 5.
