Here's a great mix from DJ Hickory Dickory Doc (DJHDD). Originally intended to be a mix for Solid Steel.....
"This mix was commissioned by Strictly Kev as a companion piece to his Solid Steel Robot mix which aired last week. It was suppose to be a collaboration, however Kev had set himself aside some rules, and he wanted some older sounds & a premise of the future of robotics from the view point of the past. A large percentage of his songs were old rock n roll based, whilst most of what I had were more electro, I was after the “sound” of a robot, vocoders & futuristic music; robots singing the Beatles, the talking dictionary tripping out to the Orb, robots falling in love & looking after our basic needs."
"After fishing the net for anything I could find on robots, I started to hear some fabulous “unknown” bands, mainly from Myspace. Meeting up with Kev in July we decided that I would help with samples but that we would go on to do 2 separate mixes."
Anyways - 2 hours of Robot mixes seemed to be too much for the show - so it was cut. Regardless, I think it's a great effort and a fantastic mix.... go check it out!
