Sacha Robotti today unveils his highly-anticipated debut album I, Robotti, out now via Dirtybird. A wide-ranging project that encompasses Robotti’s two decade career, I, Robotti includes earlier singles ‘Words,’ ‘Whistleman,’ ‘Manifest,’ ‘All Night,’ ‘The Flood,’ and ‘Say It’.
I, Robotti unfolds as an expansive body of work that reflects the many corners of electronic music Robotti has explored throughout his career. Moving fluidly across tech house, breakbeat, indie dance, peak-time techno, jackin house, and the many subgenres in between, the 22-track album highlights an artist who has long resisted being confined to a single lane. Instead, it embraces the unpredictability that has defined Robotti’s path, weaving together club-focused moments with more experimental turns that broaden the scope of the record.
Collaboration drives the album’s spirit. Robotti brings together a diverse cast of voices, including Perry Farrell, Felix and Eric D. Clark, SYREETA, Sian and JOPLYN, Blakkat, and Victoria Rawlins. Additional appearances from Gene Farris, La Boix (Salva and Thee Mike B), Christopher Coe, Pershard Owens, DJ Rap, BabyGirl, and more further expand the album’s sonic palette. Each collaboration adds another layer to the project, reinforcing the sense of shared history and creative exchange that runs throughout the record.
“Two decades of touring, three decades of living in Brussels, Edinburgh, Berlin and California, collide on I, ROBOTTI — a debut album that was always being made, just never finished, until now! Twenty-two tracks across house, techno, breakbeat, and electronica, created alongside collaborators who aren’t just features but reasons why I’m still making music. I, ROBOTTI is an honest attempt at mapping the journey so far and I’m excited to share it with you!” – Sacha Robotti
Across the album, each track acts as a snapshot of Robotti’s sonic journey, mapping the sounds, styles, and relationships that have shaped his evolution over the past two decades. Together they form a narrative that bridges early underground influences with the global dance floor presence he holds today. With I, Robotti, Sacha Robotti delivers a debut album that captures both the breadth of his musical identity and the collaborative spirit that has defined his career, marking a milestone moment while continuing to expand the ever-evolving world of Dirtybird.
