Oranj, the sixth Robohands album, was recorded in 2025 between Chicago's Rax Trax Studios and London's Dock Street Studios. A 14-track LP, it pays tribute to the pioneers of analog recording with valve-driven gear, 1960s Fender Jazz bass, Fender Twin Reverb amps, and vintage Hammond organ. The record blends the warmth of 1960s/70s jazz fusion and late-70s/80s film scores with modern influences, ranging from Boards of Canada to Robert Glasper. Mixed by Sean Woodlock (Hackney Recording Studio) and Shawn Clendening (Lilac Lab), Oranj balances frenetic uptempo cuts like "Achilles" with reflective pieces like "Regular Exercise," as well as experimental moments on "New Era" and "Object." Recorded partly to reel-to-reel tape for added saturation, it stands as the most raw and spontaneous Robohands album yet, with mastering by John Webber at Air Studios and artwork by Baxter himself.
