It has been a year since the release of highly-acclaimed album entitled “To West and Blue”. After various archive releases (the second volume in the rarities collection entitled “Seeds in the Tide” plus expanded reissue of a classic album “The Fires of the Borderlands”) and new albums on other labels (“Psi-Transient” and “Conduits And Estuaries”), Robin Storey aka Rapoon presents a carefully woven new masterpiece called “Fall of Drums”.

The new Rapoon album marks his return not only to the analogue electronics territories, but also to ethnic rhythms which he was known for in the very early days of his solo project. We are back to Middle Eastern territories, to deserts, opium hallucinations and ghosts whisper amidst the sand. 4 long hypnotic tracks of staggering beauty take us on an hour-long journey into your subconsciousness. In other words, it is another top quality album from Robin Storey.

In December last year “Seeds in the Tide Volume 01” saw the light of the date and met with loads of interest. As promised we continue the series with the second installment in this collection of Rapoon rarities.
This time, apart from compilation tracks, “Seeds in the Tide” features three (yes, three) rare releases. The first one being “Live at Klanggalerie” tape from 2000; the other 2 being “Pell Mell” and “Ep Et Vee” EPs, all the three released in very small quantities. “Seeds in the Tide Volume 02” is therefore your chance to grab these titles, not on eBay (where they fetch enormous sums), but in one collection at a reasonable price. All in all, the second volume contains 150 minutes of pure sonic bliss with a quality sign, just like any Rapoon release is.
Once again, the tracks were faithfully restored by Maciej Bartkowiak. The paintings on the cover is by Mr. Robin Storey himself and the design duties were handled by Zoharum in-house designer Maciej Mehring. The whole production process was overseen by Michał Porwet.

This is the 4th Rapoon release on Zoharum. And this one is really a treat.
The double album celebrates the 20th anniversary of “Vernal Crossing” release, Robin Storey’s third album. But it’s not a mere reissue. The artist revisited the original and adapted it for the 21 century,hence the title. “Vernal Crossing Revisited” is two sides of the same coin: the first disc contains the original album (faithfully remastered by our label’s favourite Łukasz “Wookie”Miernik) and the other one being the 2013 reinterpretation of the original. This is Rapoon at its most rhythmic stage. Prepare yourself for the journey to the desert.

Not a reissue, not a compilation, but something complete new. “To West and Blue” is 50th Rapoon album and 5th Rapoon release on Zoharum label. And this one will become a staple in our CD players for long time. 7 long, slowly evolving tracks appealing to your subconscious side. An album that is definitely not to everyone’s tastes. This one gradually grows on you until you are captivated by its haunting beauty. But there is an underlying uneasiness in it. A sort of clash between reality and a ghost world or a world that is long-gone. With choral voices hidden beneath layers of treated sounds, “To West and Blue” is a stand-out album among Rapoon numerous releases.
Robin Storey talks about this album: These pieces are about the area grew up in in the UK. A peninsula of land which stuck out into the Solway Firth. Surrounded by the sea when the tide was in and surrounded by endless mudflats when the tide was out. When the water covered the ground the line between the sea and the sky was almost non-existent. A diaphanous boundary. The sea came in from the West where the huge skies hung without end in a vault of blue.
The 7 tracks presented on “To West and Blue” were mastered by Maciej Bartkowiak. The cover is based on photos by Robin Storey and the design was handled by Maciej Mehring. The whole production process was overseen by Michał Porwet.
The CD is housed in gatefold sleeve in the vein of Japanese-style vinyl replica and is strictly limited to 500 copies.
