Robert Babicz - Galactic Tardigrade

Solarii Records launch with a goliath of the scene, their mission: to move the body and soul with exceptional music. Who better to lead the charge than Robert Babicz with ‘Galatic Tardigrade’. Remix support comes from the equally talented Jamie Stevens.

A pioneer of the scene for many years, Robert Babicz is a phenomenon. A true one-man operation, he writes, records and performs solo; commanding an ever-expanding touring schedule, tailoring the music he creates to the cities he visits colouring his emotive, unique take on electronica with a very human feel.

From his part in uber-band Infusion to his astounding solo work, Jamie Stevens is one of a handful of artists who’s influence has truly shaped the scene he inhabits. Each sonic exclusion a masterpiece of sound design, emotion and deep understanding.

In original form, this idea of resilience is explored sonically with an ever-evolving melodic landscape taking in sweeping pads, spacious keys and growling low end. On remix duties, the ever capable Stevens smoothes out the ride teasing the main motifs in warm reverb, creating a sonic wonderland of enchantment.

‘Galatic Tardigrades’ is based on the microscopic animals which have been found all over the world -from tropical rainforests to the depths of Antarctica. Known for their resilience, nothing appears to kill them even outer space.
