Sacha Robotti unlocks the next chapter of I, Robotti with ‘Manifest’, his latest single in collaboration with British stalwart SYREETA, Los Angeles-based producer and vocalist Mikey V, and legendary act Blakkat, out now as part of the Dirtybird’s 20th anniversary.
A fusion of Robotti, SYREETA, Mikey V, and Blakkat’s distinct talents, ‘Manifest’ slips into a hypnotic space where groovy undertones meet spiritual intimacy. Moving with cerebral focus, the track spirals with deep melodies and transportive rhythms, carrying uplifting messages that encourage freedom and self-expression. It’s an otherworldly invitation into dancefloor escapism, a sonic realm where movement becomes meditation and euphoria unfolds into positivity.
‘Manifest’ is the latest piece of the I, Robotti puzzle. Set to arrive in early 2026, Sacha’s impending debut album is a journey into the experimental, cross-genre sounds that have followed him across two decades and countless time zones. The project reflects the nomadic career he’s constructed while showcasing the friendships he’s developed along the way with collaborations like ‘All Night’ with Sian and JOPLYN and ‘Say It’ with Victoria Rawlins.
From Berlin to San Francisco and beyond, Sacha Robotti has carved his place in the vanguard of underground dance music. His creativity is boundless, extending from his solo project and Slothacid imprint to his work as ½ of Third Culture. I, Robotti is the culmination of his longstanding creative partnership with Dirtybird, following 2014’s Loca Lola, 2017’s Melato Nina, 2024’s ‘Roll With Me’ and collaborations with Kevin Knapp and Kill Frenzy. He returned to the label in 2024 to headline the inaugural edition of Back To Baysics at San Francisco’s Embarcadero Plaza.
British producer and DJ SYREETA has built a reputation for being authentic, fearless, and inclusive. In addition to residences with HE.SHE.THEY. and ANTS, SYREETA is a regular spinner at parties like Paradise, Elrow, and Circoloco and performer at festivals including Time Warp and Lightning in a Bottle. Releases on Crosstown Rebels, Nervous Records, Eats Everythings’ Edible, and IDRIS’ Sound International have further catapulted SYREETA as a favorite amongst tastemakers and fans alike.
Mikey V is a producer, DJ, and vocalist whose work bridges Los Angeles’ underground house scene with a deep, spiritual sensibility. Over two decades, he has crafted a distinctive sound that flows between groovy, dancefloor-ready rhythms and immersive, meditative textures inspired by his journeys in the Peruvian Amazon. Collaborations with artists like Riva Starr, Camelphat, DJ Sneak, and Sonny Fodera have shaped a versatile discography that spans labels including Classic Music Company, Snatch!, Hot Creations, and Toolroom.
Blakkat has been a driving force in electronic music for over three decades, his career spans a Mercury Prize with M People, remixes for New Order, A Tribe Called Quest, and Chaka Khan, and collaborations with pioneers like Marshall Jefferson and David Morales. Known for bridging cultural credibility with crossover appeal, his catalog includes releases on Crosstown Rebels, Hot Creations, and Defected. Blakkat joined Sacha earlier this year for ‘The Flood’, the second single off I, Robotti.
