Everybody, Try not to get too mixed up about a statement like that. It's not uncommon for people in some European countries, like Italy and Germany, to refer to a particular style of music as "Black" music. Whatever kind of music that is is a very loose genre, but it usually refers to Hip-Hop, Soul, Funk, etc. If Robotnick says he doesn't like playing "Black" music, it probably means he doesn't like Sister Sledge and "We Are Family" or 50 Cent. He's not a racist, or proably saying anything racist. He's just a 55 year old man from the kind of not racially sensitive country that would define a musical genre as "Black".
I've spent a reasonable amount of tiume with the guy and I can tell you with some certainty that he is not some kind of kooky White Supramatist. He's a very sweet, nice guy who is very opinionated about Espresso. He also doesn't speak very good English. As for his live set: it does both of what you would want. He plays new electro/techno stuff as well as performs a few of hits live. Usually, he plays "Dance Boy Dance", "Problems...", and one or two others. His show is very fun and high energy and I'm certain most people on lthis list will enjoy it. e Scatalogics 205 15th Streeet #A7 Brooklyn, NY 11215 www.scatalogics.com "Talent Copes but Genius Steals"
