The VX-323 Robotiques

The new album Robotiques, a concept album by a robot named The VX-323, is now available. You'll find the full details here.

"Welcome! I am The VX-323, serial number 07EC13-08, formerly a factory robot but now I am an electronic recording artist. I hope you enjoy my style of robo-pop!"

Below is track 6 off the release, titled 'Pets' (a song about The VX-323's pet which happen to be human), followed by the second track, 'Euro Star'.



"This is a very personal song to me. Humans have very long lifespans, but they can meet all sorts of bad fates if they escape. Always keep your human on a leash!"



"Stripped-down electronica track from my new disc, Robotiques."

P.S.: Big thanks to the VX-323 for supporting MATRIXSYNTH!

THE VX-323 - Chansons

You might remember the Bitnotic VX-323 voice synthesizer from this post.

THE VX-323 is also a music project, "I am The VX-323, singer, songwriter, speech synthesizer. My debut CD, Chansons, is out now. The CD is packed with robo-electronica like you've never heard before. Some of you will really dig my music, while there will be some who just don't get it. That's cool...

You can listen to tracks at MySpace or Last.fm. The links are at the top of the page, next to my name. The album is available NOW through Amazon, iTunes, CD Baby, Napster, and Lala."

You can find more info at http://thevx-323.com/.

I was on the fence on whether to post this here or on MATRIXSYNTH-C. MATRIXSYNTH is about the gear and MATRIXSYNTH-C is about the artists. I decided to post it on both as the album features the synth. I received a copy of the CD as a thank you for my prior post and I must say that I really like it so far. It's surprisingly soothing to the senses - great to unwind to.

The VX-323 New Robo Album Out July 1, 2014!

http://www.thevx-323.com - click through for video and audio!

"The VX-323 returns with 7 new songs in his visionary electronic robo-pop style – 1982 meets 2082. The new album, Robotiques, crackles with energy, hooks, and...humanity.

The robot musician uses the digital voices in his real-time OS to sing songs about both the machine and human worlds, imbuing them with wonder and warmth. It’s the singularity meets Serge Gainsbourg.

Tracks:

1.Android Sex Doll...has feelings, too. Up-tempo synth pop torch song

2. Euro Star...minimal old-school electro love song, feat. CR-78 and vocoder

3. Chain Smoking...jittery robo-grunge- dub, will get the kids on the dance floor (and to the tabac)

4. Souls...clanging, buzzing meditation on being made in the image of your creator

5. Les Parisiens...synth pop love story about the coolest kids on the planet

6. Pets...rollicking jam about a robot and his lost pet

7. I Dream...soundscape of a robot in sleep mode. Electric!"

via MATRIXSYNTH CLASSIFIEDS. This is the first music promotion listing to go up! In general, they'll go up here on MATRIXSYNTH as well.

BTW, some of you might remember the VX-323 from this post back in 2009 as well as Bitnotic's speech synth posted back in 2008.
