Rebelski Instore and Signing

Martin Roman Rebelski is the touring keyboardist for Doves and long‑standing collaborator with Peter Hook and The Light and Echo and The Bunnymen. As a composer and recording artist in his own right, Rebelski returns with his new album, Algorithms.

Written, recorded, and produced over 12 months between touring commitments, Rebelski’s Algorithms follows two of his most recent works, 2023’s Simplicity and 2024’s Monochrome to complete a purposeful trilogy. Recorded in studios and outdoor spaces across Manchester, Barcelona and Shropshire, the album incorporates field recordings of humanity, wildlife, and the natural world as well as specialist, close-quarters techniques that capturing the non-replicable mechanical elements of Rebelski’s tool of trade. The piano, complete with hammer strikes, pedal thuds, finger movements and breath.

Positioned precisely at the halfway point of the 10-track album, new single Momentum functions as a narrative hinge. Where much of the record is rooted in introspective, piano‑led minimalism, the first single from the album marks the moment the music stretches, accelerates and explores new terrain. Stillness gives way to motion. Reflection moves to progression.

Reflecting on a deeply intimate and reflective experience, Rebelski says: “We live in an era defined by targeted ads, content recommendation, and behaviour-tracking overload. With ‘Algorithms’, I worked towards creating a musical reflection on these manufactured narratives. The intention is an analogue, human-first counterpoint to an increasingly automated culture. Through current recording techniques and the use of modular synths, the album mixes elements of modernity with a deep respect for traditional methodology.”
