Rapoon

Rapoon is the solo musical project of Robin Storey, a British experimental musician and former member of the influential industrial group Zoviet France. Founded in 1992, Rapoon has since become a significant entity in the ambient music scene, known for its unique blend of ethnic samples, mystical soundscapes, and textured electronic elements. Storey's work as Rapoon explores themes of cultural resonance, spiritual transcendence, and the interplay between the ancient and the modern, often employing a rich tapestry of looped motifs and drone-based compositions.

Throughout the years, Rapoon has been prolific in its output, with a discography that extends to over 70 full-length albums, as well as numerous collaborations, EPs, and singles. Some of the more recent works include "Industrial Exchange" and the "Mercury Rising" trilogy which illustrates Storey's enduring fascination with progressive sound experimentation. Albums like "Call Fires To Cloud" and "Song from the End of the World" continue to delve into evocative atmospheres, drawing listeners into a world of contemplative soundscapes that are as haunting as they are beautiful. Rapoon's music is characterized by its ethereal qualities and its ability to transport audiences to otherworldly auditory realms.
