Wassup guys?
Made it back safely from SXSW. My legs are in pain and my body is weak but overall this year was a success. We got rid of a ton of the new Robot Dance Records promo CDs and found out that the new Kids At The Bar single has started hitting some of the online stores. We know you have a dollar or two to spare to buy a legit copy! Oh yeah, I guess this is where we officially announce on this blog that we started a record label. Surprise! We’ve got some killer releases coming out in the next few months that we’re super excited about. Of course, we’ll be telling you all about them on this site when the time is right.
Got a ton of good emails while I was gone so there should be some good tracks posted this week.
I’ve been waiting a long time to be able to post this and today really is the perfect time. Beatpunks will be playing tonight with us at Robotic and both Beatpunks & Computer Blue will be playing the Dance Robots, Dance! SXSW party this coming Friday in Austin!
Computer Blue did a damn fine job on this remix of Playtime, which we’ve posted the original before.
The next track was a collaboration between Computer Blue and Crystal Vision which shows that not everything has to be serious all the time. Who writes songs about hotdogs? These guys!

We Are Like The Spider, from Springfield, MO, are currently getting ready to destroy SXSW at this year’s Lose Control party. WALTS gets a little remix treatment from Ryan Nexus who keeps it a slow jam perfect for a springtime car ride.

Hey guys, remember back in 2003 when this song was in that car commercial and then in every girl’s car stereo? I do. Well, it’s back, and Peo De Pitte actually did a good job of reviving it. Definitely not something I’d personally like to hear in the club but I will most likely be listening to it at home for a while.
Peo De Pitte aka Peo Häggström hails from the city of Stockholm, Sweden. After moving to London Peo have also been running his very own label FlatOut Records, the main home for releases of his two aliases Peo de Pitte and Haggstrom.

Here it is! The long-awaited release of “Losing Streak,” the exciting musical lovechild of Frankmusik + Computer Club. Frankmusik’s debut album, Complete Me, was released on August 3, 2009 and made it to number 5 on the UK Albums Chart. Computer Club is known for his many remixes including artists such as Mr. Oizo, Jewel Kid, and New Order; and his debut EP Nerd Secrets, will be out this month.
Included is the single version of Losing Steak PLUS a DJ edit for the DJs ready to demolish dancefloors everywhere.
As a bonus check out Computer Club’s edit of The Human League’s perennial electro classic “Don’t You Want Me.” This updated jaunt down memory lane should be fun for everyone from entry level alt-kids to the most jaded of old indie-rockers.

After you party hard all Thursday night this year at SXSW, here is how your friday will go down. First you’ll wake up, maybe pop an aspirin or 4, walk down to the nearest coffee shop and grab the drink of your choice, maybe a bagel or something to munch on, then race over to Valhallas on 7th street because we’re giving away free booze! Go RSVP for this awesome day party! Presented by Dance Robots, Dance!
We’re really excited about Lose Control 2 this year! It’s a massive 4 day party at SXSW this year and if you don’t go RSVP then you’re a loser.
3 Oklahoma groups are on the lineup this year!
Trash Yourself, Kids At The Bar and Crystal Vision will all be rocking the dance floor this year!
We’ll also be announcing another party soon.
