British singer/songwriter Robbie Redway AKA Rondo Mo has been inspired with his latest single The Fear, a poignant and personal reaction to a week-long stint volunteering for the Help Refugees charity in Calais.
Rondo Mo is the new pseudonym of Robbie Redway, a London-born singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist who deals in alt-pop-tinged electronica with moody undertones. Former frontman of AKASE, a duo he formed with house superstar Midland a few years ago, Redway recently took to a barn in the remote landscape of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall earlier this year to focus on creating his own sound. What came out of these sessions is currently being shaped and mixed with the help of legendary producer Ewan Pearson.
All proceeds of this single will be donated to Help Refugees ( https://helprefugees.org.uk ), who are carrying out amazing work supplying shelter, food and provisions to the thousands of homeless refugees throughout Europe. The single The Fear blends sublime piano melodies and synths for his most pop record to date.
The Fear follows his last single Overflow on Edu Imbernon’s Fayer imprint, an atmospheric slice of indie electronica with house inspired piano stabs and distorted instrumentation. His debut Corners is a more downtempo affair with live trumpet solos and layered vocals; testament that Robbie’s musical expertise is beautifully diverse.
