Do androids dream of electric sheep? Does the tin man hide a
heart somewhere inside his metallic cavity? And how human can a
machine actually be?
Questions like these make up the fascinating universe of THE
GIRL & THE ROBOT, a German-Swedish Electro collaboration that
has set out to merge the warmth of human emotions with the
calculating reservation of synthetic intelligence, to create a
modern electronic fairytale.
As a first result of this prolific companionship between machine
man Deadbeat and the personified temptation Plastique, the duo
offer the double feature single "Whole/Flowers" on which they
wander effortlessly along the thin red line between unleashed
passion and classy confidentiality.
Plastique's voice is as seductive and intoxicating as the aura
of the tantalizing singer herself, sweeping over the songs like
a lascivious kiss that would even turn an emotionless robot into
a hot-blooded lover. This eye-opening and sense-reeling feeling
can be experienced over and over again on this EP, whose warming
vocals break the synthetically caused coolness like icicles
melting in the warming sun of spring, thereby creating
hypnotizing and vibrant electro dew drops.
One thing is certain: even an Android will only dream of
Plastique's beauty henceforth after having laid eyes on her
alluring form and having listened to her conjuring voice for one
single moment.
THE GIRL & THE ROBOT unite COVENANT's elegance with CLIENT's
sexy style, and with melancholic tracks like "Howling Winter"
they also pledge allegiance to the solitary soundscapes of
LADYTRON and ROYKSOPP. As a result, the atmosphere of a
nocturnal metropolis merges with a soft longing to create a
gripping listening experience that even transcends the
boundaries of the named artists: On "Whole/Flowers", the
Scandinavian robot and his long-legged beauty convey the message
that the seemingly paradoxical similarity between girl and robot
only exists in our heads. Humans or machines... aren't we all
creatures searching for comfort, freedom and love?
With remixes by DIE PERLEN and JAVELYNN FATE (the new project of
former ASHBURY HEIGHTS stunner Yasmine Uhlin) on board, THE GIRL
& THE ROBOT head for the future, entering a new era of the
relationship between man and machine.
