The Traveller

Rubberlips is a tightly-knit collective of musicians from West Yorkshire in the north of England. At the helm is Robert Burbidge, a session trumpeter of many years whose musical talents and unique network of local artists, musicians and producers has over-seen the Rubberlips collective emerge as one of the brightest talents on the UK's electronic music scene. Having played alongside a wide variety of the most prominent outfits in the industry, in both classical and contemporary circles from national orchestras to some of the best DJ's on the circuit (including Louie Vega, Utah Saints and Plump DJs), Robert has performed at some of the most prolific venues in the country (Royal Albert Hall, Royal Northern College of Music and the Birmingham Conservatoire) and strives to ensure both technical ability and musical performance in the studio is of the highest standard. Rubberlips "The Traveller" in the "Twisted Tongue Remix" is a laid-back and funky sunset disco groove with uplifting strings, the kind of music you want to listen to to let your mind drift away for a few minutes. The remixers travel farther: Ilya Santana delivers a cosmic beach club anthem, Plastique de Rêve adds the "let's get the party started" feel with some more driving synths, and then, Jonty Rose turns "The Traveller" into a hypnotic cosmic disco masterpiece, the right soundtrack for travelling into space. What a ride! Cosmic Disco at its best.
