I am robot and proud
WAVELENGTH #33
SEPTEMBER 24 - 10PM


In anticipation of our species’ inevitable cybernetic destiny, Wavelength has capitulated to the luscious beatscapes of I Am Robot And Proud.
Not only are robots clearly superior to carbon-based lifeforms, but their intimate understanding of circuitry and subroutines allows them to create catchier, more joyous electronic music than us puny humans.
Soon, I Am Robot And Proud will release a split 7” with The Mathematics on U.K. label Catmobile. To find out more, and download some sweet MP3s, see . Natalie Dot-Dash facilitated the input-output exchange.

Are you a good robot or a bad robot?
We’re like Tetsuwan Atom, with the iron arm.

How did you hook up with Catmobile in the U.K.?
Claire is one of the people who runs the label and she heard some songs over the internet. We’ve been talking for a few months about putting out a record. She does an electronic music project called Printed Circuit as well.

What makes your music more unique than that of humans?
In 2000 A.D. when the SECOND IMPACT occurred, half of the world’s population died. The EVA and the children were mankind’s only hope for survival.

If you were stuck on a desert island for a few months, what one CD and who of the following would you take as your companion — Bender (Futurama), Rosie (The Jetsons), Number Five (Short Circuit [80’s movie with Ally Sheedy]), The Iron Giant (movie of the same name) or R2-D2 (Star Wars)?
The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest and Johnny Five. I think we might change the band name to The Johnny Five.

What are the three most embarrassing albums in your collection?
Choose any three Dirtstyle records. SCCCRRRAAAATCCCHHHH!

What makes you so proud to be a robot?
OK, I’m not really a robot and no one I play music with is either, so I hope people don’t come to the show expecting to see robots. We’ll make a better tomorrow with music only.
