Our Take

Robin Richards, better known as the bassist for synth-pop trio Dutch Uncles, brings us a delightful musical journey with his latest solo venture, "Castel EP." This four-track collection is a whimsical exploration of sound, blending electronic elements with dreamy melodies in a way that feels both fresh and familiar.

The EP kicks off with the shimmering title track, "Castel," a perfect introduction to Richards' unique sonic palette. The song builds and swells, drawing listeners in with its infectious groove and ethereal vocals. It's a promising start that sets the tone for what's to come.

Next up is "Slide In," a bouncy, synth-driven track that oozes charm and charisma. Richards' vocals float effortlessly over the bright, danceable beat, creating a sense of euphoria that is impossible to resist. It's a song that is sure to get stuck in your head for days on end.

The EP takes a more introspective turn with "Miles to Midnight," a haunting ballad that showcases Richards' emotive songwriting skills. The sparse instrumentation allows his poignant lyrics to shine, drawing listeners into a melancholic world of longing and yearning.

Closing out the EP is "Loser Blue," a dynamic track that blends elements of indie rock with electronic flourishes. Richards' expressive vocals soar over the driving beat, creating a cathartic listening experience that leaves you wanting more.

Overall, "Castel EP" is a triumph for Robin Richards, showcasing his versatility as a musician and songwriter. This is a must-listen for fans of indie pop looking for something fresh and exciting.
