Love when we come together to make sound Love when we make sound together. Don't you just love it when it all comes together Charles Hayward It has been such a joy to work with Robyn, especially when entering the fascinating world of Robyn's Rocket and Avant Garde jazz. We had our fun moments, like when the fire alarm went off during our recording session of Mystery Man, and we just rolled with it and kept it in. It's like nothing matters. It's such an honour to be part of the world of Robyn's Rocket and to listen to the many stories, expressions and colours that shine throughout the album.Sebastian Golgiri
