User Reviews:
Alain_Patrick, Mar 30, 2005

The way Maurizio Dami, better known as Alexander Robotnik, used to manipulate the sintesizers in a deeply futuristic shape in comparison to many other electronic music artists of his time. He stretched to the boundaries of a style well-known as Italo-Disco, but his sonorities went far away from the Disco itself, since it came more like from the depths of Kraftwerks Electro, the New Romanthic and Synth Pop movements.
His classic tunes, such as Problèmes D Amour and Dance, Boy, Dance are still considered references to all Electro & Synth-Pop supporters.
Despite his visionnary releases of the beginning of the eighties and the international recognition, he only earned what he really deserved after his come back in the electroclash era.
