In contrast to the epic predecessor „Black Hole“ (feat. Lisa),  „Catch Fire“ is a short fuse with a long afterglow. Space Wave meets House meets extraterrestial beauty in Isabelle Rivera. When those two worlds collide, they melt into another state of mind. Mindmelting is also the impressive range of remixers who contribute totally different versions of the original. Space Ranger deliver a Housefeast for the senses, Moon Runner take us on a delirious Funk trip in the desert, Gazeebo makes your teeth grind with an afterhours gem, Elitechnique invite us on an Italo-rollercoaster ride, Fab Mayday marries House Piano with Shoegazer guitars and Jussi-Pekka mixes Miami Bass with crystalline madness.

EDR 07 Various – Emerald & Doreen Hit Selection Vol. 1

As if ‘Black Hole’ was some kind of dark space movie from the past –  Kid Machine’s Retro-Italo-Electro style delivers a film score-esque remix. ‘The Robot Scientists’ enter the Black hole only to find a near deserted, lonely secret world. Kid Machine used the melodies from the vocal chorus and replaced some parts with eerie, robotic vocoders to deliver a sense of ‘no escape’ and ‘no return’.

go nogo - Movement (Skatebård Remix)

Having worked as a drummer in various bands, going on international DJ-tour with The Vienna Scientists and finally producing tracks for The Robot Scientists, it was subsequently time for Fred Scholl to come out of the closet into the limelight indeed. Before he moved to Berlin, the insatiable musician fineshed some tracks which underwent a year-long permutation by aid of producer Bernhard Götz, who worked as inhouse-producer for Interchord. Götz, who also spent some time at Frank Farian’s studio, liked the charme of Scholl’s naive singing and compositions that combine the charmes of 80s pop, 90s indie dance and 00s electronic grooves. The result of this collaboration is three titles of which “Movement” will be published first. Thanks to the Robot’s good reputation and a great network of friends, the release of “Movement” by go nogo will be in good company.

go nogo - Movement (Original) Edited Teaser

Thomas Barrandon’s version may not be as optimistic as the original, but dramatically melancholic as it gets: There’s a creepy introduction that has The Cure return to „A Forest„ in a synthetic guise. The refrain kicks-in in with a vigor that is sweeping the 80s Italo-floor towards contemporary Nu Disco prowess. If "Italians Do It Better", they are put to the test with this remix.

Jon Nedza aka Gazeebo delivers another rare, Italio fueled, disco groover. Dripping in analog bass and vintage beats, this after-hours gem oozes that quintessential, late night sound that Gazeebo is best known for. Appropriately titled "Gazeebo's Teeth Grinder Mix" Jon's filtered-out, strobe happy vocals will surely have you looking for a dentist in the morning.

The Robot Scientists feat. Isabelle Rivera - Catch Fire (Gazeebo's Teeth Grinder Remix) 128bit MP3

Mexico City based Alec Sander and Juan Soto love to work at night. Thus, their funked up version of „Catch Fire“ sounds like the aftermath of a Tijuana night-out. Morricone surf sounds meet a feverish atmosphere that feels like being bitten by a rattlesnake in the desert. The low-pitched vocals in another time signature adds an extra-comatose flavour to the pulsating backdrop. Infectious grooves from Latin America.

Catch Fire (Moon Runner Remix)

The Robot Scientists feat. Isabelle Rivera - Catch Fire (Moon Runner Remx) 128bit MP3

The combustion speed of the new Robot Scientists single is exactly 4 minutes and 22 seconds. In stark contrast to the epic predecessor „Black Hole“ (feat. Lisa), „Catch Fire“ is a short fuse with a long afterglow. Leaving the extended club versions to the remixers, the song-like approach is nothing but added vocab to the book of Robot Science. Space Wave meets House meets extraterrestial beauty in Isabelle Rivera who is the voice of Berlin-based quartet Kuya (kuyaband.com). With her dark timbre, she supplements extra depth to the rolling electro-bass of the track. Influenced by Gospel, Bossa Nova and Jazz, Mrs. Rivera hails from a different musical plane as The Robot Scientists. When those two worlds collide, they melt into another state of mind.
