RAPOON
My Life As A Ghost
CD Album in a limited edition of 500 copies only.
Deleted 12.1.2007, sorry!

"My Life As A Ghost" brings together two of Rapoon's most brilliantly developped skills: on the one hand you have his classic ambient tracks, skilfully created and with an atmosphere that only he can achieve. On the other hand, Robin has created a lot of beat orientated tracks that range from dancefloor to more experimental. Finally, the all-new Rapoon CD and what a killer album this is!
"Storey has drawn on all kinds of familiar musical forms - Trance on the Rhiz album, Ambient on The Kirghiz Light, Drum & Bass on Cold war and more - but he retains the appealing ability to make music subtly removed from its immediate influence. (On My Life As A Ghost,) found voices drift through the mix; grainy loops revolve and shiver; the music expands and contracts, systole and diastole, with slow, ectoplasmic motions."
(The Wire, December 2004)

"Seventy-two minute studio album that uses rhythm as a weapon in almost the same way that the early pioneers of Krautrock such as Can & Faust used to do, way back in the early seventies. (..) Track through impressive track reveals some of the most mesmerising rhythm-based electronic music that you've yet heard from a true creative force in music and for many years a genuine musical pioneer - the fact that after all this time he can still produce an album as awesome as this, one that takes your breath away every time you play it, a testament to his talent - amazing!!!!"
