Each track on Robot Speaker's Plastic-TV Channel No. 5 is a unique collection of random sounds from electronic transmissions (television, radio, words, music, static), masterfully organized into complex and interacting sets of rhythms that are arranged unpredictably.
Words cannot begin to describe how much we love the music of Takuma Ebisawa's Robot Speaker, but we'll try. The most original music we've heard in years, effortlessly combining a sampledelic, cut-up collage aesthetic with ingeniously evolving, multi-layered, complex rhythmic patterns.

Reviewer:daveg - - May 22, 2006 Subject: Goofy cut'n'paste stuff Somewhat similar in structure (or lack of...) to Zorn's Cobra-era stuff, Robot Speaker takes widely different sounds, tosses them in a chopper, and mixes them to chunky proportion. Best served with warm fried tortillas.
