About
Al Robertson didn’t care for clean lines. Between 1946 and 1983, his work was a relentless dive into lo-fi chaos. From the United States, Robertson's tapes on Synthetic Tapes and Flowmotion punched through the mundane with abrasive minimal synth and experimental soundscapes. The Axe Gets Axed (1981) cut through the scene, offering visceral, raw textures. The Peoples Marathon (1983) twisted minimal synth into unexpected gospel infusions, a final testament to his unyielding vision. His visuals, captured in early photo releases, add a hostile yet nostalgic layer to his sound. With 539 listeners, Robertson remains a cult enigma. Not about numbers, but impact.
