About Robbie Furze | The Big Pink

Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell formed The Big Pink in 2007. Although both of music stock, their debut, A Brief History of Love, was the first collection of songs that either were really able call their own. Both from London, the genetics of The Big Pink are not incidental. Milo, the son of 1960s producer Denny Cordell, is behind the celebrated Merok label, instrumental in unleashing the mutant soul of Crystal Castles, Salem, and Teengirl Fantasy upon the world, while Furze first made a name for himself playing with industrial behemoths Panic DHH and Alec Empire. Such disparate roots speak loudly of the ambitions of The Big Pink, as they pull unexpected and marginal forms into the spotlight of a wider audience.

Having released a low-key single on unknown independent House Anxiety in 2008, the band’s rising star drew the attention of 4AD, penning a worldwide deal with the label in early 2009. Ignoring the pressure that befits such music industry hype, the band eloped to the Electric Lady Studios in New York to record and self-produce what was to become their epic debut album, A Brief History of Love. The final results were eleven stunning tracks set within a sound world that combines melody and beautiful abstract noise in a manner redolent of their eclectic musical backgrounds.

Having toured the world throughout 2009 and the early part of the new decade, the band took a break to reconvene, with their only new release in 2010 a mix tape as part of the renowned K7! mix series. The Big Pink’s second album, Future This, was released in January, 2012. Named after a skateboard company’s slogan from the ‘80s, it’s an apt title. Recorded over the summer of 2011, with ideas flowing, they worked with producer Paul Epworth (Adele, Florence & The Machine, Friendly Fires) to help them match their high ambitions. The end result is a perfect realization of the band’s initial intentions to marry their more outre influences with a pop sensibility. The 10 tracks add more shades to The Big Pink palette, commanding attention throughout with its genius gently sinking in like all good records should. The band are currently in Los Angeles working on their third studio album.
