Hey, 

  Just writing to let everyone know that I have two new albums out this month. The first release, Red Sun Lines, is a limited edition cassette on the highly regarded Sloow Tapes label from Belgium. They have released stuff by Keijo, My Cat is an Alien, John Clyde-Evans, Larkin Grimm and the always sublime Samara Lubelski.
Here is a reveiw from Boa Melody Bar 

Excellent cassette from Andy Robbins of Sculptress featuring contributions from Ben Reynolds, Andy Jarvis, Stephen Clarke and David Hayward. A mix of acid-drenched string ragas / intrumentals (played on sitar, acoustic & electric guitar and banjo) and abstract improvisations / tape collages. (Boa Melody Bar) 


You can buy this tape and loads of other really cool stuff from http://www.sloowtapes.blogspot.com/ 
and  http://www.apexonline.com/melodybar/..   

Both sites have really cool stuff for sale. You can also buy my debut ep from 2004 and Red Sun Lines from http://www.eclipse-records.com/cgi-bin/eclipse_search.pl?fields=all&query=andy+robbins.

I think you can also but the debut ep from 2004 from

The second release is the much anticipated song based album Two Horses, available as a limited edition of  500 on UK based DIY label We Like Danger. It features contributions from members of such underground beat combos as Spy Verus Spy, Sculptress, Ashtray Navigations and Stuckometer. Available on cd with 100% recycled packaging, priced £6.50 with p&p.

Here's a reveiw courtesy of John Cavanagh........

Two Horses follows on from Andy Robbins' instrumental tape (which was well received at the Melodybar) in fine style. This is an album of songs - very good they are too - and one long, driving instro. to finish. There's elements of psych-pop, drone-folk and old country blues going on here. I'm thinking that I might be hearing some nods to Bert Jansch, Will Oldham and Tyrannosaurus Rex, but I only mention these as a rough outline. There are really nice textures, from violin & 'cello, electronics and autoharp and, all in all, this album is one I can recommend quite easily.
