Hello everyone!
White Robot goes live in a rare dual performance featuring mrbotty and DrXparaMental at the Zeitgeist Theatre in Detroit Sat, July 28 at 9:00pm. Well known in the Detroit area for it's "outsider art ethic". The Zeitgeist Gallery/Performance Venue celebrates it's 10th year of bringing true inovation to our fair city. My connection to this organization goes back many years as well. I hosted my first CD release party there and worked on many projects including numerous sound scores for the Zeitgeist Theatre productions. As a performer I am thrilled to be a part of the celebration. The Zeitgeist is located in Detroit at 2661 Michigan Ave. Check them out on the web at: www.zeitgeistdetroit.org for more info.

Newly featured free mp3 downloads for January 2007. What's been on our mind for a while??? White Robot releasing a guitar- tronica record for spring 2007. We thought we'd give you a little preview in the meantime. We've really funked up the beats and added lotsa guitar to these grooves. Man this is powerfull stuff! Playing off genere's pulled from rock and fusion bands from the 60's and 70's. This is a format we began with back in the 90's with a project release called visionEar. We see this trend drifting back into peoples ears and see this as a good time to deliver here at White Robot.

Well...after finshing off with all the holiday celebrations around us. We're back here at the store adding up the numbers and we are very pleased to see your busy eyeballs and wallets focused upon us this year. Not only did we manage to create some amazing music this year, but we sold a fair amount as well. It's also interesting to note you've been coming back to see us. We Like That!! It inspires us to know you care.
Hey... were a feisty little label battling for our fair share of the market like everyone else. So we try harder to bring you our best and we'll keep on doing it this year. 2007 is going to be and interesting years for folks like us. So much of the music industry is changing and we believe, in our favor. The demise of Tower Records, and the rise and sale of YouTube to Google are just two examples of how consumers are changing the way they shop and purchase music. We love being in the middle of it and never did we ever think we could evovle so much in such a short time. So...thank you for your time in visiting and coming back and most importantly the money you spent downloading or purchasing our music. Best to you all in the coming year.
Mr Botty

The disasterous events at New Yorks Twin Towers is once again recalled in the minds of all Americans this weekend. There isn't one of us living who will forget what we were doing 5 years ago on that day.
That day for me was at best surreal. Like many of you I really didn't belive it was happening. I first heard about it listening to the radio and it wasn't till I saw it for myself on television with my own eyes that it was indeed for real. I have no family or friendship connection with the people who died that day but my sympathy for all of them was real and heartfelt. I was at that time finishing up a new CD project and decided to plow my feelings into a small suite of music to express my feelings. I did post and will again post them here for you to listen to. I must also say I was surprised at the response I had to this music. I didn't really expect it. So if you are so inclined, feel free to take a listen for your self. I hope you will.
