Robotnik - vBlog #8

This vBlog is a U2 special. I promote the charity event in aid of the SCOOP foundation that happens on Saturday 15th August 2009 in the Twisted Pepper. Robotnik does a headline show there! I also go to Croke park and see U2 play.

Soundtrack is Yumeji`s Theme by Shigeru Umebayashi.

Robotnik is Chris Morrin, a highly challenged boy from Dublin. Robotnik's music is a mental adventure of pop, electronic beats and melodic musings on relationships, fantasies and twenty-something-dom. Robotnik has been
extremely busy with the release of his critically acclaimed debut album 'Pleasant Sqaure' in 2008. In 2009 he has been excersising his Devo-esque performances alongside the likes of Laura Marling and Crystal Castles whilst enjoying regular airplay on MTV, has remarkably re-written the Pat The Baker jingle and is currently DJing on the
all new digital radio station RTE 2XM.

never ever sounded as at home with trebly beats and primitive Jean Michelle
Jarre synth sounds as they do on this hometown classic." - HOTPRESS 4/5

"remarkable debut, which straddles Eighties synth-pop and thoroughly modern
laptop lo-fi, he displays ambition and originality in spadesthis is among
the very best records of the year" - ALTERNATIVE ULSTER 8/10

"Pleasant Square is a simple pleasure that proves surprisingly
invigorating." - METRO 4/5
