Robo Sapiens is the brain child of 3 highly respected
musicians/producers : Milan
Polak, Thomas Lang, Fabio Trentini
Drummer and producer Thomas Lang is considered one of the world's best
drummers, has won multiple awards, is known for his recording and
touring work for international artists and for his award-winning work
in music education.
Fabio Trentini is not only known for his bass playing, groove &
tone but also a demanded international producer with many successful
CD’s to his name.
Milan Polak has released several solo CD’s and has been featured on
various compilations of the world’s hottest guitarists. He was also
mentioned in a list of the “World’s 50 fastest guitarists" by Guitar
World Magazine.
The 3 members of Robo Sapiens have been friends for many years and have
worked together on various occasions. They had been talking about
forming a super group together for quite some time but due to each
musician’s busy schedule it took a while to realize the project.
Despite the high technical level of musicianship the song writing &
production always remained priority, resulting in 9 well-crafted songs
that should appeal to a broad audience of musicians and lovers of
instrumental music.
- Please describe
the new album musically and lyrically?
Well-crafted instrumental songs that should appeal to a broad audience
