Cumbria, United Kingdom (1992 – present)

Rapoon is the solo project of Zoviet France co-founder Robin Storey, operating out of the United Kingdom since 1992.

Robin was born in 1955 in Cumbria, England. While studying fine arts at Sunderland University, he began pursuing a long-held interest in sound manipulation by taking classes in electronic and experimental composition, additionally joining with friends to perform the works of Karlheinz Stockhausen (a key influence, as were the bands of the early 1970s). In 1979 Storey formed the pioneering group Zoviet France, remaining a member until 1993; the year previous, Storey issued the first Rapoon album, Dream Circle, its entrancing fusion of Indian ragas, African rhythms and experimental textures anticipating the evocative s of the many releases to follow. Also a noted visual artist, painter and animator, Storey’s work was exhibited throughout the world, with two of his pieces on display at the Berlin Museum of Modern Art.
