Editorial Reviews

Product Description
"Robert Lippok plays with audio space, leaving the listener amazed at how rich and simple the whole thing (process and result) sounds." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE

We've all felt like robots--working alienating jobs, engaging in scripted conversations with others, and even at home with our repetitive daily rituals. Robert Lippok successfully captures the experience of robotic life on his Robot EP. As it begins, we hear the distant sound of a robot at work, sounding both mechanical and lonely. This sets the tone for the rest of the portrait. With the fluttering ambient tones and gently repetitive bass patterns of "Unexpected Behavior No. 7" and the arpeggiating synthesizers of "Silent Movement," Lippok continues to develop the feelings of isolation and solace found in a predictable existence. "After Work" breaks the established mood with one of Lippok's trademark catchy synth melodies. Soon a danceable bass thud comes in, along with another synth melody, making the piece feel joyous and celebratory. The final track, "Sweet Servo," could easily be the soundtrack to a robot's dreams. Even then, we hear the robot isolated in the sterile and melancholy world of repetition.
