Giant Walking Robots: New Single “Headspin” | Denver Jamtronica

Denver’s Giant Walking Robots Just Dropped “Headspin” – And It’s a Total Trip

The Denver music scene has a reputation for being a bit of a “mad scientist” lab for sound. We’ve seen every possible combination of bluegrass, funk, and dub, but every once in a while, a band comes along that actually makes you stop and lean in.

That’s exactly what Giant Walking Robots are doing with their new single, “Headspin.”

The Sound: Where the Dub Digs Deep

“Headspin” isn’t a track you just listen to; it’s one you feel in your chest. The band calls it a mix of reggae, jamtronica, and drum and bass, but that almost feels too clinical for what they’ve actually pulled off.

It starts with that classic, laid-back reggae soul—the kind that makes you want to find a sunny patch of grass—but it doesn’t stay there. Before you know it, the track evolves. The rhythm section gets “heavyweight,” the synths start to swirl, and suddenly you’re in the middle of a high-energy DnB break that feels like it’s aimed straight for a late-night festival set.

Who Are Giant Walking Robots?

The magic of this project is that it’s clearly built by people who live for the stage. The four-piece lineup brings a massive amount of chemistry to the table:

• George Demopoulos (Bass): The man responsible for those deep, floor-shaking dub frequencies.

• David Halchak (Guitar/Vocals): Bringing the melodic heart and soul.

• Matt Schooley (Drums/Vocals): Keeping the engine running, from steady grooves to breakneck speeds.

• Wilson (Guitar/Synths/Vocals): The texture specialist, blurring the lines between rock and electronica.

They didn’t just want to play “reggae-rock.” They wanted to see how far a dub section could actually travel. By letting their jams “breathe,” they’ve created a sound that feels loose and organic, but still hits with the precision of a club track.

“The goal was simple: bridge the gap between the organic feel of a live band and the forward-thinking energy of the dancefloor.”

Why You Need to Listen

What makes “Headspin” stand out is that it doesn’t choose a side. It’s for the jam fans who want more grit, and the electronic fans who miss the feeling of a real instrument. It’s clever, it’s catchy, and as the name suggests, it’ll leave your head spinning in the best way possible.

If you’re looking for the future of the Colorado sound, this is it.
