Kynan Robinson is an Australian trombonist and composer. He is most commonly associated with jazz but also plays other styles.

Career

Robinson was born in Australia but spent his childhood in Bangladesh[1][2] as a child of Christian missionary parents. They lived there for fifteen years and were the only white people in the village.[1] He returned to Australia to complete high school. He received a bachelor's degree in music from the Victorian College of the Arts.

Robinson formed a contemporary improvisation quintet named En Rusk which has toured Australia a number of times. They recorded their debut self-titled CD in 2001 and in 2004 finished their second recording, 1000 Wide. He formed The Escalators, which released an album entitled Wrapped in Plastic, inspired by the films of David Lynch.[2] He has also ventured into electronic music, first with his dance/performance act, Des Peres (originally known as Old Des Peres)[3] and second with Hard Hat, a group that brings together electronic and acoustic musicians. Both acts have performed regularly at venues and festivals around Australia and internationally. Des Peres completed their debut album in 2004. The album is released through Flict/Shock. Their second album Ace Doubt was released in 2006 through Flit/MGM. Des Peres combines a theatrical stage approach with a sample-heavy sound. While playing with the band, Robinson adopts the name Old Des and works very with Luva DJ (Michelle Robinson) and Mr. Ection (visual artist and brother Kiron Robinson) as well as guitarist Tom Bass and Kelsey James. Their third album was entitled The Adventures of Cowboy and Miniman.

He has recorded albums with Collider, a band he co-leads with Melbourne saxophonist Adam Simmons. "Solo in Red" is a piece composed by Robinson and commissioned by the Melbourne Writers Festival. It focuses on the writings of American novelist Cormac McCarthy.[4][5]

He has recorded with C.W. Stoneking, Brian Brown, and the Melbourne Ska Orchestra. He has composed music for jazz ensembles, dance productions, musical theatre, contemporary classical ensembles, and electronic dance acts and has had his compositions performed in festivals around the world. In 2001 he was a collaborative composer for Double Venturi, a collaborative piece involving musicians and funded by Arts Victoria. In 2004 he received funding through the Australia Council to compose a concert-length work for prepared piano and small ensemble that was premiered at the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz. He also has scored the music to six short films and has collaborated in numerous cross arts projects with visual artists including Kiron Robinson, Narinda Reevers, and Dave Macleod.

Robinson runs a collaborative arts organization called VerSus which holds monthly events and has held events in regional Victoria. He runs his own record label, Flict Records.
