Wrakobill



There are two acts going by the name of Robotix. Robotix: one of Poland's hottest and upcoming rockbands, and Robotix: a Dutch underground hiphop collective. Robotix were formed during the summer of 2002 (in Pultusk, near Warsaw) and play classic-psychobilly rock. The lyrics are mostly Polish, and are about horror-movies, monsters, parties, drunk devils, nasty girls and vampires. Robotix can be described as something between Gorilla and Scallywags. Their debut album Kosmiczna Odyseja Helvisa has been released on Amigos M.D.C. in January 2003. After the big success of the Polish CD-version, German label Black Sky Records decided to realese a special limited LP-version with a different sleeve-design (July 2003). Their second album Wrakobill will be released soon (Winter 2004). Robotix started out in the early nineties (in Almere), when Milko Offringa aka Chill Mill started making beats and samples in an eighties tradition, together with his childhood friend David de Wit aka Benni Blanco. Their talents were recognized early on by Chew Fu Fat (producer and musician) and Eboman (sound scientist), and they were given the chance to develope their skills at night in a small but well equiped Amsterdam studio - where they learned the needed skills to truely become a production team. Together with longtime friends Minister Di, MC Ramzter, DJ DO and MC Miekster, the production team formed the group Onafhankelijk (wich means Independent). After a few years of performing at youth centres and small clubs, the group onafhankelijk fell apart. The remaining crew formed a new group called Robotix. Now Robotix consists of MC and producer Professor Funkovski (Milko Offringa, aka Chill Mill), producer Mandroid (David de Wit, aka Benni Blanco), MC and producer October Chabliski (Dimitri Wevers, aka Ministir Di) and MC Millennium Miek Miguel Meijndershagen. In this well balanced formation the group sets out to be productive, creative and true to themselves, and create music that reflects this philosophy. Read more on Last.fm.
