Description: I really suck at naming tunes. I settled on Blue Streak because I was visiting my Grandad and we went to this museum which contained rockets he worked on back in the day... Blue Streak was one of them.

such nice melodic flair, really cool, sassy attitude

From the "Rude Mechanicals EP".
Futuristic riddims sent back through a wormhole by a band of post-apocalyptic reggae loving robots. 
Created with that concept and the motto Strictly Lo-Fi for your Hi-Fi in mind, Robot Riddims’ official debut Rude Mechanicals combines the sound of chiptune, a love of 1980s dancehall and a trusty circuit-bent 1988 Kawai drum machine into a four track sure shot.
The EP kicks off with the future/past dancehall sound and disembodied android deejaying of “RoboRockers”, before continuing with a nod to more recent JA beats with the crunchy drums and cheerfully skittering 8 bit arps of “Skynet Party”.
Next up the noisy, anarchic “True Grit” pushes the bit crushed lo-fi sound to the extreme to create a truly brutal groove, before the release is rounded off with the dubbed out and stripped down “RoboDubbers” version of the EP’s first track.
And remember: Resistance is Futile.
