Violet

Tom Colquhoun Laconic and sun-spackled jazz that follows a chiaroscuric vein from beam to slatted beam, this album draws you in with light and twinkly textures until, in Sumimasen, the coiling beast at its heart unwinds and engulfs you. The final two tracks return to the blissed-out Sunday haze of before, to see us out on a wistful note. A focused and understated little treasure in all. Favorite track: Sumimasen.

Mark Burlingame The texture of this record is fabulous. Find your favorite chair, sit back, and enjoy the ride.

Jason Boardman Solid set from Robohands, getting deeper into the more spiritual side of Jazz, however my favourite track is Introjection a short but sweet nod to Manchester great Sir Vincent of Reilly. Favorite track: Introjection.

about

The new Robohands LP showcases the brilliant producer and multi-instrumentalist through his most thought-out and compelling songwriting, yet.

Andy Baxter AKA Robohands displays a new level of sureness with an album that makes you never want to leave its world. The collection of tunes touches on the full range of emotions, at times it’s bold and upbeat and other times it feels somber and heartbroken. It’s tied together with a throughline that keeps you wondering where the trip is heading next.

It builds anticipation through patience and layers that show themselves over time, but its choices are direct and seem to know where they are going while maintaining and presenting an adventurous spirit.

The multi-instrumentalist not only brought in new tones and textures for this record but there are also stand-out vocal performances on 2 of the tracks by singer, Aleh. Showing his ability to arrange with new elements at play.
