UK looper Nick Robinson has released a solo album, featuring guitar only and lots & lots of loops!

Steve Hackett : interesting with some excellent playing and innovative atmosphere. I wish you luck with the project.

Adrian Belew : I liked it very much. All the best in this crazy world we now have…

Siren sounds, distant, abstract and ominous resound, but ally with a drifting gentle breeze, the lightest waft with birds chattering in the trees. Drones perfectly envelop the soundstage, lending shade; while brief explosions of static scare the birds from the trees. Look a little further beyond this arboreal cluster of tranquillity and peace reigns again, with just the odd hint of discord. Staccato notes blow in the wind like so many leaves and there is a pastoral calm to a lot of the album that could only have been produced in the UK. At times, the pieces drift like wraiths, laden with texture, moving gently, notes barely present amidst echoing silence.

This is definitely one of the most satisfying solo guitar explorations I have heard and is a must for anybody inclined that way.
