SEXY ROBOTS #2 MIXED BY DAN CACIOPPO
Learn it and LEARN IT WELL! I wanted to re-post this mixed compilation I came up with in 2002 which was a time where in NYC there were really exciting possibilities developing for “new” music and people were receptive to electronic dance music with a new attitude that was certainly post-rave but not-quite-calling itself “electro-CLASH”. Electro was a sound from the late 70s, 80s and even 90s that I had liked and listened to but would never think of “playing it out”. The sound was dated, and the beat was not hard or fast enough I thought. I think it was a combination of this “new” electronica that was actually quite retro inspired and very hip in the underground / alternative club scene (fisherspooner, miss kitten & the hacker, felix da housecat, peaches, DJ Hell) with the return of POP MUSIC all the time on every radio station and even in CLUBS. Brittney, Kylie, Spice Girls, etc. I absolutely detest this pop music and hated it even more because it was very electronic and danceable as it was assimilating the style of “Electro”. So before my rambling continues: This mix album is my dissection of the modern day pop star. A Sexy Robot, mannequins, brainless bodies, beauty and

Sexy Robots 3 – Mixed and Arranged in 2003. Following Sexy Robots 2 which was an exploration into the sounds of classic influential electro records fused with scientific dissection of the pop genre by splicing and re-arranging layers of edited tracks together. Departing from the more narrative, Sexy Robots 3 brings you onto the dance floor. You have heard the influential records in the first two discs, the third disc is now taking your educated ass to the dance floor.
So this one is for all the dance floor maniacs out there

NEW PODCAST ALERT:
CAT DISCO!
Have you ever seen Jingle Cats? It’s totally bizarre and very psycadelic and just downright fun. It looks like it belogs on an episode of Tim & Eric’s Awesome Show Great Job but it’s no joke this is the real deal. This was my inspiration for creating CAT DISCO. Except replace xmas music with dance music, get rid of the meowing (trust me that’s a good thing) and imagine what a disco jingle cats DVD might look like. If they won’t make one then I may just make one myself!
Enjoy
JINGLE CATS: OK this is just kind of scary. Jingle Cats continues to shock and amaze me with it’s trippy visuals and good old fashioned authentic cheesyness.
