'Lectric Workers - Robot Is Systematic flac mp3 download

Check here for the source of some of the samples from Tom Middletons 'May the funk be with you'....

With discovering records like this, I'm getting more convinced that modern techno and house music came from these weird and strange Italo disco productions

Yes of course! Even, I´ve heard many years ago an interview to Juan Atkins telling that he bought a lot of proto-disco italian vinyls in early 80´s period. You´re not wrong Osmiumfunk ;)

A 9 minute quote-adventure-unquote record that scares the shit out of me. No doubt about it.

"Robot Is Systematic" is an early Italo classic that I never, ever tire of in its original form. Here it's given a techno update that it doesn't really need, but thankfully, all the versions are good enough to make this record worth at least whatever I paid for it at the time.The Ural 13 Diktators and Savas Pascalidis remixes both favor a "techno in the electroclash era" sound, which can be kind of grating and cold. Nothing wrong with that, I mean it is techno after all, but I prefer it to go a little further in a moodier direction, if not actual warmth.The John Selway remix opts for dramatic crescendos, and it has a more live-DJed feel than the others. It's like he's got two records synced up perfectly, and he's got a drum machine going, and he's now devoting all his attention to the mixer and effects processors. Also favorable in his mix is the fact that he fades in and out decent chunks of the melodic parts of the original, rather than just relying on short loops like the other mixes.If I had to pick one of the others to recommend, it'd be the Richard Bartz remix. It has a muted, faraway sound that gives it a much dreamier feel than I would expect from a modern techno track. Also interesting is that it focuses on a melodic part different from the ones in the Selway remix.

A fantastic Italo-disco bomb with all the ingredients and hallmarks of a true dance floor gem of its era (male vocal, female sensual vocal in foreign language, driving bassline, space aged synth and hard energy). The male vocal reminds me almost of the B52's main vocalist. Half way through it breaks down into an almost tribal beat arrangement, which when listened to today really stands the test of time. This is a great dancefloor number and will have any crowd moving, really worth getting hold of if you like your Italo and synth.
