BALCONYTV PRESENTS Studio time with myself, Martin and Christophe in Dublin. You also get to see me perform live on KenFM in Berlin. Wandering around the city seeing men ice skate on rivers and just generally being freezing cold before the very first Robotniks Random Rampage in Arena Glashaus Berlin. 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.
"Breezy Melodies, assertive diction and scratchy acoustic guitar sounds 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
