Watch the music video for "It's All Is" from Robert Stillman's forthcoming album, What Does It Mean to be American? 15 Dec 2021
"It's All Is" is the second advance single from What Does It Mean to be American?, the forthcoming album by UK-based, US-born composer & multi-instrumentalist Robert Stillman (out January 21, 2022 on Orindal Records (US) / KIT Records (UK)).
Under the Radar has the exclusive premiere of "It's All Is."
UTR's Caleb Campbell writes:
"Following right after 'Cherry Ocean,' the record’s opener and longest track, 'It’s All Is' is a comparatively scant two and a half minutes, almost
all of which revolves around an alluring central saxophone riff. The
track’s jazzy riff takes center stage but beneath Stillman crafts an
intoxicating mix of clarinet, piano, and more, each played by Stillman
himself. Each piece interlocks into place, creating a warm, loose, and
casually inviting instrumental piece. Finally, the song descends into
an ambient drone for its final moments, with Stillman continuing to prod
at genre confines to the very end."
