Dark Science Electro presents: Robodrum guest mix

“We Are What You Think We Are” is the tenth dispatch from the crew at Lost Soul Enterprises, New York City, USA. This compilation features a whopping 15 artists who together represent all corners of the label’s extended family, with frequent local collaborators paired with past guests of our various parties. It is served with love from us to you on 3 slabs of vinyl released in 3 installments.
Each installment charts a different component of our sound: 10.1 highlights the influences of synthwave and postpunk electronics, 10.2 is comprised of razor-sharp acid and overdriven electro, and 10.3 delves into darker shades of industrial techno. Together, all of these elements loosely sketch our little corner of the sonic universe. With this humble offering we tried to capture and share with you a little sliver of what we’ve found together in hazy rooms full of flashing lights and strange sounds. Here is a track from 2nd installment by NYC based producer Maroje T who is slowly to slowly making his mark in the game after its recent stunning release alongside Annanan on Pinkman !

Robodrum - Nie Uszkodzisz Robota (Bass Agenda CAREBOT$ compilation)

Played by the famous group Plaid on their tours and countless other Dj's around the world this was really  a great record for Electro pushing  and developing a new style in the process. Just checkout the Boomkat review if you dont beleive me. some people just dont get Electro but this one rocked the planet. 
"Our favourite New York label, at the forefront of the electro scene 2003, gears up for its autumn onslaught with this four track bass-heavy beat cutter from E.M.S. E.M.S. builds his machines from the transistors up, drums and modular synths sounding distinct from the sound of a thousand lesser talents. 'Colonized' dominates the a side, an acid inflected electro stinger, burning modular synths and a morphing sound which just guarantees floor action. There's a useful drum-a-pella break to wrap up the side, then prepare for two further excursions of quality on the flip. 'Rythmus Machine' will challenge bassbins, the melodies are seductive and again the influence of prime acid strokes makes a welcome contribution to the tune. 'Pit + Lounge' ties it off, with a slightly more downbeat approach, floating vocoder across bassy surges and splendid 
rhythms, wicked track. " Boomkat
Tatum (Mr Velcro Fastener) – “The most inspiring electro record for a long time, really liked the PLT+LOUNGE_EUR track – fast but still pure electro, no drum & bass feel at all!  DDDDDDD was also cool, could’ve been a bit longer though…top quality!” 

Dave Mothersole (Kiss100) – “B1 and B2 are great – will play on radio and give B1 a chance out when I’m feeling brave.  Keep me posted with this label.” 

Scape One (Electrix) – “Another cool slice of analogue action from NYC’s premier electro label!” (Charted #4)

Will Saul (Simple/Fabric) – “Wow!!  This is some of the best electro I’ve heard in years. Totally awesome.  This got a great reaction at the weekend and will stay in my box for many months.” (Charted #3)

Dan Moore (Superconductor) – “Excellent stuff, great sounds, deep and energetic all round.  Definitely a top label – keep ‘em coming.” 

Fink (Ninja Tune/Solid Steel) – “Played A2 on the radio as a soundbed – the rest just falls short for me – epic maybe, but the pressing 
 sounds so sonically dull.” 

Scott McGill (T-Funkshun) – “Rythmus Machine, my favourite cut, sounds good on both speeds!  Prefer it at 33RPM where you can take in 
 its lush atmospheric electro sounds.  Last track is great for Aux88 fans.” 

Dan Bean (Passion FM) – “Good, solid release – nothing particularly crazy going on (or am I missing something?), but a good groove, 
 particularly on the title track, which I played on the show last week.” 

Percy X (Soma) – “Got this from Andy when I was in NY – I’ve been playing the first track on the EMS ever since.”

Phil Kieran (Shine/Bugged Out!) – “Fuckin’ brilliant – really, really good.  I think I’m playing B1, the big sub woofer job, perfect 
 for dropping between techno tracks…more, please more!  Best so far that I have heard from this label.” 

Rennie Pilgrim (TCR) – “Very pleasant electro tracks.” 

A1 People (Hydrogen Dukebox) – “This record kicks ass and I will be playing it in all my sets for the near future!”  

Mat Carter (Dedbeat/Haywire) – “Straight to B2 for me here, nice floaty analogue sounding electro.  Just how I like it.” 

Rick Hopkins (Haywire) – “As you’d expect from Satamile, a deep pulsating beast of a monster.  Top stuff!!” (Will Chart)

Reverand Milo Speedwagon (Kiss100) – “Rythmus Machine has the acid lurking nicely.  Colonized builds really well with a few skittery 
 bits flying around to lighten up the mood – good stuff.” (Charted #20)

Paula Temple (Virtual FM) – “Another great release – will give lots of support.” (Charted #7)  








Colonized

The year 1982 says everything. Martial law in Poland, Planet Rock in NY arises. The same year and month when this electrofunk anthem was composed, in the polish city - Szczecin - in the army hospital Przemek Kuduk aka Electromonter aka Robodrum is born. First music fascination is "Bad" from Michael Jackson's album which he replays endlessly. In the early 90"s, young kid seeks musical pleasure with Technotronic, Cmc Music Factory, Snap, 2 Unlimited, Army Of Lovers, Eurythmics, Vanilla Ice, Kriss Kross hits. Half of the 90's is also a change of musical intrests when he pays attention to polish rap scene and the hip hop culture. It exerted huge influence on him. First baggy jeans, electric boogie and rhymestering. After first solo rap acts in 98-99 he becomes member of hip-hop band Style Domain. After few concerts and changes he comes to a conclusion that there is something else that interests him in music most. Although his adventure with rap last till 2003, at the turn of century Przemek discoveres electro-funk - starting from making up for lost time with films such as Wild Style, Beat Street, Breakin, Electro Shock and ending on the official and indyvidual anointing by grandmaster Afrika Bambaataa. Even though Przemek started to construct his first electro bits since 2001, not until the meeting with Bambaata when he found favour with him and making of music became an ideal that is worth of sin. Next steps of his career were to buy 2 decks plus mixer and trying out himself in dj'ing. Electromonter aka Robodrum is trying to mix breakbeat with electro bass which he can expand in Szczecin's clubs (Alter Ego, Mezzoforte, Crossed). His producer achievements is over a dozen tracks. For Robodrum the most important is quality not quantity, which is reflected in little amount of his publications. The effect of his producer work is The Message album, publicated in polish label Elektropunkz Recordz. Interests? 808 bass, robots, past, present, armageddon!
