Release Notes:
In his most intimate and forceful recording in years, Robin
Rimbaud aka Scanner, maneuvers across fresh terrain that
embraces the traditional - guitar, vocals and string
arrangements, and the more eclectic ª hundreds of found
voices, radar transmissions and environmental recordings.
Opening the album with 'Sans Soleil', Scanner sings for the
first time on one of his productions, his voice hovering
through a barren landscape of fragile loops and harmonies. By
far his most mature and personally sombre album, Rockets is in
equal parts sumptuous and achingly beautiful, sentimental and
exploratory. Jean Baudrillard once depicted paradise as
mournful, a fitting location for this ravishing soundtrack.
