Vancouver-based Robyn Jacob has variously been heard as one of the guiding forces behind Mint Records’ Only A Visitor, one half of the Giving Shapes (alongside Elisa Thorn) and one of the key members Gamelan Bike Bike, a community initiative whose traditional instrumentation was made from discarded bike frames and scrap metal.

With New Forevers, out August 14th from Redshift Records (LP/DL), we hear Jacob’s engrossing work in the concert music arena—especially within the realm of percussion. Enlisting Montréal’s Architek Percussion as her core ensemble, the recording also sees her working with SHHH! Ensemble and Grammy-winners Sō Percussion plus guests on a spellbinding body of work. Her compositions celebrates texture from bone-dry sibilances to rich choirs of mallet percussion, all the while delving into environment themes from a unique (and somewhat hopeful) vantage point.
