Electronic Emergencies selected by I​-​Robots

Early 2020, while the Covid-19 crisis was taking over the world, I-Robots was introduced to Electronic Emergencies. Calling it a magical parallel world, I-Robots immediately fell in love with the retro electro and disco noir feel of the label from Rotterdam. It was a nice surprise to discover that the guys of Electronic Emergencies have been fans of I-Robots since the early days.
I-Robots and Electronic Emergencies have found each other in their eclectic taste in electronic music. While their friendship evolved, they started discussing ideas on how to collaborate.
As a first step in this collaboration, I-Robots has curated this digital compilation of 14 of his favourite Electronic Emergencies tracks. These reflect the deep melodic eighties atmosphere of the label and the elaborate and sophisticated taste of I-Robots.

In addition, I-Robots will remix/re-edit/rework 6 of these tracks. ‘I-Robots does Electronic Emergencies’ will be released as a limited edition 12″ on vinyl and digitally on Electronic Emergencies in early 2021.

Electronic Emergencies: The Hacker – Nancy

The Hacker – Nancy

The Hacker needs no introduction. His 4-track 12-inch ‘Nancy’ on Electronic Emergencies finds him at his best – oscillating wildly from electro to new wave, his true musical roots. For the title track, he collaborated once more with post-punk hero Michael Zodorozny, vocalist of Crash Course in Science, resulting in a slippery wet dance floor killer. The three instrumental tracks have a gritty feel, breathing over the cold wave atmosphere.

Electronic Emergencies: Venderstrooik – Crustacean

Venderstrooik - Crustacean

Venderstrooik is a mysterious collective of musicians, artists and performers, infamous for their wild live shows and guerilla view on today’s society. Crustacean is their first concept album, and showcases their musical depth – from future electroclash classics via experimental acid techno to melodic sensitive moments. The often explicit but always witty and profound lyrics give us a further peek into their dark souls.

Electronic Emergencies: Det Är Grymt I Norr – Swedish Synthetic Darkness

Det Är Grymt I Norr - Swedish Synthetic Darkness

‘Det Är Grymt I Norr’ is a compilation of exclusive tracks by artists reflecting the contemporary Swedish underground electronic music scene: ALVAR, Celldöd, Dissociō Modus Trāns, Hjärnkultur, Agent Side Grinder, Kinder aus Asbest, Æmɨt and Yabibo Hazurfa (special Scandinavian letters not included). The title of the compilation, Swedish for ‘It’s grim up north’, describes the atmosphere perfectly – in Swedish, ‘grymt’ also means cool.

The gloomy cover was designed by Erik Söderberg. Subtitled ‘Swedish Synthetic Darkness’, the music on the album is intense, hard and cold at first listen but boiling with emotions underneath the surface. Expect industrial, EBM, coldwave, acid and everything on the spectrum between electro and ambient. Thank you for the music.
