Modulations

The Toy Tonics crew is known for being addicted to two things: vintage music machines and old vinyl. 100% music aficionados. On the „Tonic Edits“ series the crew shares some of their favorite old tracks - in a reworked version. 
This time COEO get back in time. They destroyed a couple of 1970ies disco jams. Recut & repasted them. And gave them their special COEO touch. Of course it’s irresistible! 
This release comes on vinyl only first. Later maybe could be out on selected Digital sellers.. not sure yet.

Opal (Four Tet Remix)

BICEP | OPAL (FOUR TET REMIX)

6th episode of Robotnick's Archives' series.
I want you
The early 90s were dominated by sampler made house
music. In those days Robtnick was quite distant from the
dance scene as he was mainly busy composing
soundtracks and ambient music. Sometimes , just to have
fun, he would make disco house that he would then play
at his private home parties. One of these experiments is
"I want you" where he recently merged materials coming
from different sources into a 125 bpm hybrid.
TB Maniac
In the late 80s Robotnick decided to sell his analogue stuff
and buy a sampler machine. Before getting rid of his
TB303 he recorded some sequences it contained onto a
tape. A few years ago one of them became a new track
and definitely not by chance it was titled TB Maniac. it's a
truely vintage track: all of the synths used in it are earlier
than 1982. 120 bpm
Black Garage
In the mid90s , under different art names, Robotnick got
involved with music styles such as ambient and world ,
quite different from what he was best known for . There's
a lot of material from those days in his archives. One of
them is Black Garage. It may sound a bit trancey but it's
still part of Robotnick's artistic process. 123 bpm.


Alexander robotnick - I want you (cut)

Max Duke - no good (original mix)

Cement, one of the  best friends of the modern era is showing its limits.
Do you remember the fantastic architecture portrayed by  comics in the 60s, with cities raising to amazing heights , overhanging bridges connecting towers....Well, forget it.
Cement doesn't seem to be reliable in the long run. What a shame, it was such a beautiful dream, a dream called cement.
Alexander Robotnick & Ludus Pinsky once again together with their  Italcimenti project introduce  this EP containing 4 tracks:

1 - A Dream Called Cement
2 - Suspended City
3 - Step by Step
4 - Unavoidable Crash

It's a kind of Post-Italo stuff. 
1 In "A Dream Called Cement" an Italo sequence-riff challenges a suspended pad: it's like opposing  the appeal of cement to the entropy of time.
2 "Suspended City" is a tribute to our imagination. Maybe  progress has slowed down a bit..;) But we still keep those  dreams firmly  in our mind.
3 "Step by Step" is built around a fragment of a dialogue: "Everything 's gonna be all right" - "Oh...I know you) It points to some responsibilities or at least carelessness whose consequences are emerging today.
4 In "Unavoidable Crash"a very fast arpeggio draws the fragments of instability produced by an unstable planet. Chords spring out  suddenly, acting like an alarm and creating tension until the groove is back and  the dream goes on.

A Dream Called Cement

Alexander Robotnick – The Four Seasons
It’s high time for seasoned Alexander Robotnick to tackle an Italian classic: The Four Seasons ….before seasons are definitely wiped out by the dramatically famous climate change. We grew up with a sort of mantra that went: “Seasons are no longer the same…” , a mantra that existed even before we were born. But Winter is still Winter and Robotnick’s desire has always been that of a Winterless year. The Four Seasons represents a sort of wishful thinking (by contrast).
Four ultra classic titles : Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. All of these tracks (apart from Winter) share the same origin: : they are born out of three very fast arpeggioes (32mi) where the note sequence is so quick it almost sounds like a continuous chord.
Impressionist music , without any real theme (except for Fall). Deep House that never falls into style clichés . No parallel harmonies, no one key chords, but a seamless flow that opens into modal scales and finally chill-out listening . Only in Fall the arpeggio sometimes tends to reveal itself , grows frenzied and introduces a somewhat
melancholic theme.
Fall has always been an intense and creative time for Robotnick , animated by a powerful energy flow, probably
to exorcise Winter which is looming on the horizon. In Winter the arpeggio is replaced by a sample from Wagner’s Master Singers that creates a music background with a meditative pace despite the pressing rhythmics.
All tracks composed and produced by Alexander Robotnick (A.K.A. Maurizio Dami) 120 bpm

The Future

The Future (Purple Disco Machine Remix) [feat. Antony & Cleopatra]

Alkemya (1997) was a trio of musicians tired of spending hours sitting in front of the PC to democratically decide the direction to follow. They therefore decided to turn back to improvisation yet without giving up the opportunities provided by the use of the computer. Thanks to technology it is possible to see and edit the result of a real interaction among musicians on the computer screen.
So, Alkemyas music is substancially "live-performed", it’s a reaction against the unbearable coldheartedness of so much electronic music, generated exclusively by the process of superimposing and editing different tracks.
Alkemya was performed by : Maurizio Dami (Alexander Robotnick) - Lapo Lombardi (Ludus Pinsky) - Ranieri Cerelli
It can't be classed in a specific genre, fluctuating among ambient music, electronic music, trance and sampledelic music.

Alkemya

Alkemya - Zakir (1998)

From the album "Melt in Time" - 2003 - digital release 2019
SAAZ AND VOICE (Nazar - Kurdistan - Iraq) : this is an Oriental lute with strings producing  a very open and distinctive  sound. Some keys are at the interval of a fourth of tone according to the tradition of a large region that includes the Middle East and part of the Mediterranean. The tunes that Nazar sings and plays are very ancient but sound extremely lively even to our modern ears.
KEYBOARDS (Maurizio Dami - Firenze - Italy): they represent the “primordial soup”, the sound of “reality as it is”, unaffected by history and culture. They provide the “glue” and  create the environment where  tunes can swim like fish in the water.
KEYBOARDS and VOCAL (Smail Kouider Aissa, Algeria) : They represent the dialogue amongst different Mediterranean cultures and the gateway to the Arab world. Smail comes from Algerian Rai.
TABLAS ( Arup Kanti Das, Rashmi v. Bhatt, India): the most typical and universally famous Indian percussions need no further presentation. Due to their precise tuning they are not only rhythmic but also harmonic instruments.
DAF, DARBOUKA, Jembè (Paolo Casu - Italia) : The rhythmic colours of Africa and the Middle East.
