I’m so excited for this! Announcing MOSTLY ROBOT: Native Instruments’ new super band featuring myself, Jamie Lidell, Tim Exile, Jeremy Ellis, and Mr. Jimmy, with visuals by Pfadfinderei. We are making our debut at Sonar Barcelona 2012.
“Mostly Robot is a real band, made up of exceptional artists: Jamie Lidell, Tim Exile, Jeremy Ellis, Mr Jimmy and DJ Shiftee. Truly ‘live’, each musician plays independently of each other – instruments are synced only by the human element, with no MIDI clock or prepared grid obstructing their creativity.
Placing themselves in the tradition of inspiring jazz concerts, Mostly Robot draw their magic from bringing highly skilled individuals together, creating a unique momentum. What’s more, the Sónar showcase is a rare moment to catch a glimpse of yet unreleased song material from individual band members.”
For more info on the group, check out the MOSTLY ROBOT mini-site.

My homie and frequent collaborator Rx just dropped his debut full length Rx, out now on Made In Glitch.

Earning some frequent flier miles this weekend.
