January 23rd of 2026 marked exactly 25 years since the release of Rapoon’s extraordinary, epic double album “Cold War,” a significant standout in his extensive discography. Here, the Briton takes on his own interpretation of the then-popular drum ‘n’ bass, infusing it with his own sound. The distinctive rhythm and low-bass sound are filled with a multitude of oriental flourishes, Middle Eastern sounds, and melodies that define Robin’s signature style. Interestingly, the theme explored at the time referred to a historical perspective on the conflict. Paradoxically, after more than a quarter of a century, it has become strangely relevant. It’s also at this time that we’re publishing a special edition, expanded with another disc, a reinterpretation of the AD 2025 material, as a further development of the theme—symbolically—out of the need to fill in the missing threads in the face of the geopolitical changes that occurred during the time between the two conflicts.
