Jah Wobble & Jon Klein - Automated Paradise (2026)

This is Jah Wobble’s first post punk LP in recent years following travel and dub records. The brash guitar driven tracks on Automated Paradise reflect his continuing preoccupation with the declining state of the nation. Driven by his experience working each week at a music based community project in Merton, with Jon Klein, it is reminiscent of Mark Stewart. Angry in an empathetic, constructive way it resolved with the beautiful instrumental ‘Brockwell Lido’. Like much of his work these days, much of the lyrical content comes while traversing London’s transport system.
