Robot Koch is a well-known electronic musician whose side project Foam and Sand presents a more down to earth approach for the artist's music. Foam and Sand will release a new album on March 17th, 2023 through Nettwerk.
Stewart Cole, the trumpeter on new track Circle 35, performs in a manner that is reminiscent of Joseph Shabason's modern style, or the late ambient horns player Jon Hassell.
Robot Koch has established an exciting new course as Foam and Sand parallel to his already successful career in the ever-evolving field of electronic music. His second album, which is also his first for Nettwerk, is a marvel of atmospheric textures and sounds that exude geniality and passion all throughout.
“Music’s very autobiographical, and this music definitely reflects where I am at in my life,” Koch states. “The simplification of my process speaks to how I’m not very attached to material things at the moment—even my studio in Los Angeles is stripped down compared to what I used to have in Berlin. My philosophy is that less is more.”
