Rumplestiltskin

Rumplestiltskin

This project hides a group of studio professionals behind a mysterious name. It provides a rare glimpse of musicians like Alan Parker and Herbie Flowers working without the pressure of commercial pop production. The resulting material draws from the 1970 London studio circuit, where these players gathered to explore their own musical ideas.

Blues-rock elements and heavy grooves drive the record. The performances reflect a raw, high-octane energy rarely caught on standard sessions. It feels like an informal jam where technical proficiency meets eccentric songwriting. By stepping away from their usual work, the group explores hard-hitting rhythms and gritty textures in a loose, uninhibited manner.
