Andrew Robinson releases an album featuring 18 artistes from 8 countries performing a call for peace.

Since the horrific events of 9/11, there have been a number of violent incidents including the Sandy Hook and Charlie Hebdo massacres, as well as the Boston Marathon bombings.

Weary of global instability, singer/producer Andrew Robinson composed the song Bloodless Revolution 12 years ago.

Bloodless Revolution by Andrew RobinsonAfter meticulous fine-tuning, he finally released it on March 7 in the form of a compilation album. It features 18 artistes from eight countries performing Robinson's call for peace.

"This project means the world to me. I am introducing the project to radio stations here in Europe," said Robinson, a Jamaica who lives in Switzerland.

He is one of 10 Jamaicans who recorded songs for the album. He selected most of the acts through social media.

One of those acts is Black Dillinger from South Africa. He got involved after being contacted by singer Jedde I. Tafari from Malawi who also contributes to Bloodless Revolution.

"It's an honour and a blessing for I to be selected to participate in this project. That means our blessings are starting to be recognised across the world," said the 34-year-old Black Dillinger.

Artistes from Nigeria, Zimbabwe and St. Lucia also recorded for Bloodless Revolution.

Robinson is from Gregory Park, an area just outside Kingston, the Jamaican capital.

Though Gregory Park has a vibrant sound system culture, he started his career as a singer on Jamaica's tourist circuit before migrating to Europe in the 1990s.

Since 1999, he has lived in Switzerland and has recorded three albums.
