Transformer Di Roboter is a Berlin based duo consisting of Johannes Malfatti and Alex Kloster. Originally from Berlin, the members of TDR have lived in San Francisco, London and New York over the past years; but for now they're back where rents are irresistabily low. Johannes and Alex first met in high school and have played in various bands together since. Current experimental projects such as Danzen Jetzt, Shakti-Maan and Chlorgeschlecht have performed in Berlin, S.F, London, Paris and have have some releases here and there.

The name Transformer Di Roboter is taken from the Italian version of the widely known 80's toys/tv animation: Transformers - robots in disguise. The original idea behind Transformer was to do covers of known pop hits, using musical language and cliches of contrasting musical styles. More recently, transformer has moved towards doing own tracks, but the pop-cover-song-format remains the general aesthetic, because Transformer is fascinated by how interchangeable contents and concepts in pop culture really are.

Transformer Di Roboter also thinks that it's best not to take things too seriously.
