Memmaker - How to Enlist in a Robot Uprising

[DJ Saint]

Always get a lot of inquiries into the band Memmaker whenever I've spun "Get Your Ass To Mars". Sadly the band had signed to Hive Records prior to the labels demise and I often had to tell people the CD was out of print. Good news however as the band has inked a deal with ArtOfFact who is re-issuing the bands CD now with an additional bonus disc. So if you missed out the first time now's your chance to get this fun, energetic and stomp-a-rific CD. Highly recommended!

Memmaker is the alter-ego of Montreal-based Iszoloscope, the brain-child of Yann Faussurier and Guillaume Nadon whose interest in EBM, noise, and industrial led to the project’s inception in 2004. After several live gigs and festival appearances and a couple demos, the band caught the attention of the now-defunct Hive Records and released How To Enlist In A Robot Uprising to wide acclaim. The album quickly went out of print, and in 2010 Artoffact Records signed Memmaker to release an updated 2CD Deluxe Edition of the band’s debut release. How To Enlist In A Robot Uprising: Deluxe Edition comes with extra tracks that never made it on the first edition, as well as a full-length bonus CD featuring remixes by Rotersand, Xotox, Fractured, Stendeck, Liar’s Rosebush, and other fine electronic artists. The album is totally remastered and sports new cover art. Memmaker is one of the new breed of electronic aritsts making harsh electronic dance music, and How To Enlist In A Robot Uprising: Deluxe Edition is the perfect expression of dark, driving energy.

Released on Artoffact and available June 8th, 2010.

By all means check em out. memmaker is like that scene out of War of The Worlds where the robots first begin kicking ass... you know destruction, crushing, lasers, loudness...

Never heard servotron so i can't make a comparison or contrast.

Servotron runs on the gag that the robots will rise up and enslave humanity. I think some of the guys from Man Or Astroman are in the band. Fun stuff. What other band could write a song titled The Ballad of R5D4?
