Hey Pete!

Great Podcast - the only track I knew was Kraftwerk's, which reminds me that I must listen to more Kraftwerk in the near future.

I was surprised to find I quite liked t.A.T.u.'s track, which was my favourite after 'We are ze robotz' :)

Hey Pete - second time on ye honorable blog for me first time when I was researching some robot radio concepts. An old blog of yours popped up - cool stuff. Anyway, I am doing some robot radio podcasting development - there are some sample shows on my blog.

Also, the reason I found myself pn your blog again was robot music. I did a bunch of music sung by robots. OK, sung is being generous but they are quite entertaining. Bohemian Rhapsody and Rapper's Delite are my personal favs: http://hatheadmusic.blogspot.com/2006/11/ll-r00-rd0.html

Keep up your cool blogging and podcasting - peace!

I think I could think up a few more,
like "microkid" from level 42,
"love machine" from the spinners.
There are more, its easy enough just to pick songs with the name robot in them, its harder to find the songs that actually have robots in them, apart of the sound. I can do that easily just doing a search on song titles that have the name "robot" in rhapsody.
