Beautifully done man! I love your take on this classic, Robyn! 😊

I enjoyed hearing your remake on this.  This piece is also in my mental landscape and I often doodle around on it.

A BEautiful cover of a song by one of my/our longest musical influences. Great job!!!

very respectful cover, but that contributes great things in terms of sound.

A homage to one of my favorite bands, The Carpenters.

"I don't always make music.  But when I do, I prefer dynamics.  Stay below -6dB, my friends."

Composition explorations in musical textures, stories and grooves.

I am an amateur composer, producer and musician who has been inspired and influenced by music my entire life.  Beyond my interests in developing harmony and rhythm ideas, a song’s timbres and textures have always held a deeper emotional grip on me.  This passion for tone has dominated my compositions and productions, which are combined with playful melodies and progressions that are immersed in sophisticated soulful beats.

B L U N T • F O R C E • S E R E N I T Y is led by Robin Benjamins and features collaborations with composers and musicians from down the road, and from around the world.  These artists are:
