it may be my hearing. bring the vocals up about 4-5 db.

We're so proud - it's quite an accomplishment to get Robert to do you a remix! ;) An honour. We're really excited about this single.

You nailed it, man, thanks so much for this. Let's do it again soon!

Initially released nearly a decade ago, ‘Beluga Lagoon’ has undergone not one but two re-inventions in 2023. 

First up, producer and composer Robert Burbidge has breathed new life into his old track, turning a shimmering Balearic tune that revolved around Robert’s trumpet riffs into a fuller, richer and more dynamic version. Backed by Samba-esque drums from Dan Hudson, toe-tapping bass and guitar from Ian Stanford and stunning string and synth work from Alex Johnston, the updated version swoons and swings in all the right places, creating a dreamy and evocative piece of music. 

The second part of the re-invention comes as the Yorkshire composer has turned over the stems for the remix treatment. 

DJ, producer and soundtrack artist Mr Bird is first up, with the prodigious remix artist turning in a silky-smooth version that makes the most of the languid, jazz-influenced original. A veteran with more than 200 remixes for the likes of The Herbaliser, Lee Fields and Odyssey, 
Mr Bird turns the found sounds up and concentrates on the flow and rhythm of the remix, creating the kind of track you could hear Gilles Peterson rhapsodising over on his 6 Music Radio show. 

Not to be outdone, Cork  producer Matthew Collins steps up next and delivers a beautifully Balearic rework, dialling in more disco and fun vibes and providing a gently propulsive beat underneath to power the remix forward. 

‘Beluga Lagoon’ is the latest single from UK composer Robert Burbidge. He has been in excellent form for several years, creating spine-tingling music that crisscrosses genres and borders thanks to his frequent collaborations with writer/vocalist Winter in LA.

Robert Burbidge - Beluga Lagoon (Mr Bird Remix)

From cosmic indie jams to spaced-out chill-out anthems, there’s not much Yorkshire producer and composer Robert Burbidge can’t turn his musical talents to.

But even so, his new single ‘Just Because’ is a striking change of pace, as Robert teams up with singer and lyricist Mikey B on the indie-pogo punk of ‘Just Because.’’ 

With Robert and the Mikey channeling their inner Ian Dury, ‘Just Because’ launches with a thunderous rolling bassline - courtesy of long-time collaborator  Ian Stanford who also doubles up on rhythm guitar - and doesn’t let up from there. The on-point politically active lyrics might have been written in 2017 along with the first idea for the track, but they make perfect sense for a polarised and discontented summer of 2023. Working alongside fellow collaborator Winter, co-producer Steve Gligorovic, and with mastering by Dennis Moody, Burbidge has created an indie-pop single that will stand the test of time. 

The package is completed with two remixes that both take the original in stunningly different directions. 

Spanish disco synth king James Rod steps up first with his arpeggiator, creating a driving and moody remix underpinned by a huge new synth bassline and placing the dynamic guitars from Oceanjaws’ Brian Acton higher in the mix. James is one of the most prolific and respected disco and nu-disco producers in the world, with releases on Gouranga, Midnight Records, and Ashley Beedle’s Ramrock records. This remix fits in perfectly for the producer known for his dark and uplifting synth disco. 

Leeds DJ and producer Andy Buchan then turns in a chugging mid-tempo indie-disco remix that makes full use of the incendiary vocals. Known for his disco and indie edits and original music that spans house and nu-disco, Andy uses his near-decade of production experience on his ‘Just Because’ remix, creating a new version that neatly straddles the disco and indie worlds. 

‘Just Because’ is released 22 nd September 2023

Robert Burbidge - Nightingale 

Music is truly timeless. 

Tracks and albums written over a decade ago can still sound as relevant and important as if they were written today. The only thing that matters is the music. 

And that’s especially true for Robert Burbidge, who’s followed up a treasure-trove of freshly-created singles in 2023 with his latest release ‘Nightingale’ that first came to life over a decade ago. 

‘Nightingale’ was an improvisational composition created and recorded in 2009 by Winter, with the basis of the track recorded during a one-take capture in her native LA. 

Winter’s plangent piano lines and off-the-cuff melodies form the body of ‘Nightingale,’ says Robert. 

“Winter has a catalogue of pretty phenomenal improvisational captures that are all one take - you can actually hear the pauses in the recording, where she’s thinking real time of what to do next musically. She manages to hit some really interesting chord progressions and harmonies that seem to just come out of nowhere.” 

Nightingale was produced by Steve Gligorovic and Robert, who added a soundscape feel to ‘Nightingale’ by mixing in bird sounds and atmospheric synths to Winter’s stunning piano track. 

The result is the stunningly simple and effective ‘Nightingale,’ a sombre yet powerful single that neatly bookends Robert Burbidge’s stunning year of music. And as Robert says, it doesn’t matter whether the track was written in 2009 or 1009, as the source material is so powerful. 

“When Winter sent me this piano tune, I really wanted to do something with it, to enhance and capture the mood and atmosphere of the piano tune. Some people might equate this to a fine bottle of wine in their cellar that has been ageing properly.”

RICHARD E BLENDS ART-ROCK AND THE BLOCKCHAIN WITH “TO THE MOON”

FIRST SINGLE FROM UPCOMING "OPENING SCENE" ALBUM

British art-rock favorite Richard E is elated to share “To The Moon”, the first single from his upcoming Opening Scene album, due for release in January 2024.

A mesmerizing track exploring cryptocurrency, NFTs, and the emergence of the blockchain, "To The Moon" creates a mystical mood. Instant wealth is a dream many people have, but those dreams often come crashing down. The music video for “To The Moon” will be released on November 17th.

When describing his new single in greater detail, Richard E writes:

"At the time I wrote it, "To The Moon" was a very popular phrase in the crypto world. Coins that suddenly increase in value were described as such by Elon Musk and digital currency adopters.

On the album, it's the only song where the music was dictated by the title. Writing the music usually inspires the lyrics, or I find some lines that I've already written that fit the rhythm and mood from the music.

On a lyrical level, I was trying to express the craziness of the crypto phenomenon, but "To The Moon" is also a romantic phrase. It also references a 13th Century Chinese myth involving a turbulent relationship between the Goddess of the Moon and the God of the Sun, which revolved around the pill of immortality, but eventually made peace. The song is also given a timeless feel by this. Realistic and romantic at the same time."

“To The Moon" exudes an old-fashioned prog pop sound with hypnotic vocals reminiscent of David Bowie or Bryan Ferry, jaunty guitar riffs, and psychedelic undertones.

Great dance rock remix by multi instrumentalist producer Robert Burbidge aka Rubberlips.

His work has had repeated global airplay, including on the UK’s BBC Radio 1, Soho Radio, on cult LA station KCRW and via the award-winning Lopsided World of L show.

DIGI (FUR019) 5050580829916 Digital Release Date: 2024-07-26
Richard’s fellow Yorkshireman Robert has bestowed upon him an epic remix of a track featuring David Bowie's pianist, Mike Garson, and David J (Bauhaus/Love & Rockets) on bass. Robert strips down and beefs up the mix to present Garson’s expressive, operatic piano lines in all their glory, dancing around the raw, searching sound of the electric guitar.
The original appears on his recent album “Opening Scene” which reached #164 on the US NACC national college radio charts and gained a four star review in Shindig Magazine... “Opening Scene demonstrates a broodingly sinister, consistently unique sound that's ill-served by comparisons. Art-rock for lounge lizards? Inquire within.”
Pete Wiggs - Saint Etienne
Burbidges’s widescreen mix subtly transmutes the original’s Orpheus/association soft psych vibes to those of a sacred/sepulchral ritual allowing Garson’s piano to draw you further into its spell

Robert Burbidge - Amarillo Ft. Winter - Richard E Remix

Robert Burbidge, the acclaimed UK writer and composer, has no shortage of hits over the last few years, having created a body of work that stands up to the best in the business, with tracks like ‘Still Life’ and ‘Just Because’ getting picked up by Radio 1 amongst others. 

But his 2022 release, ‘Amarillo,’ is getting a fresh lease of life as his latest release, with long-time remix collaborator Richard E stepping up to deliver a powerful yet dreamy indie remix. 

The original release features Burbidge alongside his regular cast of collaborators, including vocalist/muse/pianist Winter, Ian Stanford on bass and guitar, guitar lines from Joel Martin and mastering from Dennis Moody. 

Richard E, signed to Ninja Tune and Youngblood Records via his work with Annabel (lee)  and fresh from the recent success of his debut solo album Opening Scene, tones down the shoe-gaze flourish of the original in favour of a subtly-charged remix by putting Winter’s plangent piano to the fore. 

By smoothing out the indie-rock feel of the original and adding in driving and drifting metronomic percussion (not to mention the duelling guitar solos of Jon Dalton), Richard E has created a lush slice of indie-pop that bursts with summer magic and energy. 

For Robert Burbidge and his talented team, ‘Amarillo’ is the gift that keeps on giving. 

Robert Burbidge feat. Winter - Amarillo - Richard E Remix is out now on all streaming platforms.

Go Satta A Real Boy (Rubberlips Remix Radio Edit)

A classically trained trumpet player, composer and producer, Robert Burbidge is one of those rare talents that blurs the lines between classical and contemporary music.

Having trained as a professional trumpet, cornet, flugelhorn and piano player from the age of seven, Robert made his way into several orchestras and bands including the National Children’s Wind Orchestra.

With classical music in his blood thanks to his parent’s upbringing, he then broadened his musical scope, turning first to jazz, and brass bands and then dance music as a teenager.

Working under the name Rubberlips, Robert became a hit on the dance music scene, working alongside Grammy-award winner Louie Vega, Utah Saints, Damo Suzuki (CAN), Groove Armada’s Tom Finlay and Ashley Beedle, while performing at prestigious venues including the Royal Albert Hall, Dublin Castle in London, Trades Club and Beatherder festival. 

Robert has now moved on from his Rubberlips alias and launched a solo career as an independent composer, producer and music maker. As well as working on solo projects for a variety of highly-respected labels, he’s also collaborated with a wide range of diverse names including Gregory Thomas (Funkadelic), Robin Lee (Faze Action) and Kevin G Davy (Cymande). And working alongside long-time collaborator Steve Gligorovic  and singer/songwriter Winter, he’s released several stunning singles with an upcoming album in 2025 called Cold Hearts and Bad Debt.

His work has had repeated global airplay, including on the UK’s BBC Radio 1, Soho Radio, on cult LA station KCRW and via the award-winning Lopsided World of L show.

Equally at home producing with a live band or using cutting-edge software, he’s perfectly positioned once again to blur the boundaries between music genres. And as ever, Robert’s unique sound resonates with depth, texture and that all-important groove that blurs the lines between classical and contemporary music.
