Robinson, Roger

Summer/feel Bad Smile

Roger Robinson (King Midas Sound, Black Space Quartet) delivers two standalone sides of haunted soul over instrumentals from Jabu's Amos Childs. Roger's falsetto brings to mind everything from early Sade demos through to lovers rock. 'Summer' sees Roger yearning for warmer days, over an other-worldly drums machine workout before collapsing in on itself in a disco mix/funeral coda outro. On the flip side the instrumental is pared back even further to a crawling slo-mo piano and the sound of faders crackling turned to 11. Roger dials the emotions up another notch, channelling ghosts of low rider soul and entering into ice cold slow jam/ballad territory.
