2012 sees the 20th anniversary of solo artistic work of an artist
extraordinaire Robin Storey under the moniker Rapoon.
Since 1992 and the
release of his debut album "Dream Circle", Robin has been exploring
the potential of post-indutrial ambience enhanced with ethnic sounds of
African and Indian origin and using trial-and-error techniques inspired
by contemporary experimentalists such as Karlheinz Stockhausen and
krautrock giants such as Can and Faust to create elusive soundscapes too
enchanting to ignore.
With over 50 releases under his belt, he has
become one of the most prolific household names in the world of
experimental electronics.
His works, sometimes harsh in nature,
sometimes evocative or even gloomy, gained many devoted followers all
over the world.
This is the first volume in the series of
archive releases celebrating 20 years of Rapoon's existence.
"Seeds in
the Tide" will collect all the rare tracks released on compilations,
small or limited formats.
The first disc entitled "Keepsakes and
Oddities" contains tracks recorded between 1993 and 1999.
The second
one is a reissue of the ultra-limited CDR version of the well-known
"Messianicghosts" album which inclides the original version of the four
tracks from that album that are significantly different from their
later variants.
The tracks were faithfully restored.
The paintings on the cover is by Mr. Robin Storey himself
and the design duties were handled by Maciej
Mehring.
