Have You Heard: Zen Robotic

Answered by: Thom O'Leary

When did you start making music and why? I was a visual artist from early childhood. I have always been and always will be an artist, but music and poetry have been my mediums of choice for the past 12 years.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Lyric-driven electronic music.

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Moby's Play is an eclectic mix of songs. Play is an album I often find myself coming back to. It has been an album I've long since considered to be among the greatest ever produced.

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? While in a metal band years ago, Deicide were touring and were so impressed by our advertisement stating we were looking for someone who could drum like Mike Portnoy, they invited us to jam with them at their sound check.

Why should people come and see your band? Powerful, deep and emotionally moving lyrics that are sung from the heart. Layered over live electronic synths, bass and drums. 

When and where for your next gig? 21 Aug, Mr Boogie Man Bar.
