CLUB ROBOT, the new club night from Earth Academy Records, lands in London on Wednesday 23rd April with an amazing line-up of live electronica and DJs.

INTELLIGENTSIA are an international collective of musicians spearheaded by cyborg futurist Mirai, who is joined on stage by vocalist Dr Es (Cyber-Geisha) and keyboardist Christopher J Wray. They’ll be showcasing material from their first two albums, Federation and the acclaimed space epic Civilizations, as well as new tracks from their harder-edged forthcoming album. Mirai’s musical body-suit has to be seen to be believed. Don’t miss it!

We are honoured to be joined by the legendary KOMPUTER, who signed to Mute Records in the mid 80s as I Start Counting. Their discography spans Kraftwek-influenced electro to modern glitchtronica, and their 2007 album Synthetik is a brilliant summary of their wide-ranging sound.

Sweden’s RANDOM is a thrilling new force in electro - you won’t believe the sounds, beats and melodies he gets out of a single Nintendo Gameboy. He’s quite rightly the toast of the 8-bit scene, but even if you don’t play video games you’ll be blown away by his insanely catchy technopop sound.

DJs for the night are TERMINAL (Godlike / Synthetic Culture), MATT NIDA and FUTURE-BOY who’ll be playing any electronica you can think of - techno to synthpop, ambient to industrial, and everything in between. If it has an electronic pulse, you’ll hear it!

Everything happens in the unusual, Tokyo-esque setting of UNDER THE WESTWAY - located in Westbourne Studios, 242 Acklam Road, London W10 5JJ. The nearest tube is Ladbroke Grove - come out of the station, walk straight ahead and simply follow the path of the motorway flyover above you all the way to the venue (5 mins walk).

Tickets are £6 on the door, or £5 with a flyer or if purchase in advance from earthacademy.org/robot.
