Soulful deep house with a hip-hop heart. Warm analog grooves and clever vocal chops that bridge the gap between a sun-drenched lounge and a dark basement club.
Robosonic, originally the duo of Sacha Robotti and Cord Henning Labuhn, emerged as a significant force in the Berlin electronic scene by blending deep house with a distinct hip-hop and funk pedigree. Their sound identity is characterized by 'storytelling techno,' a term coined to describe their ability to weave narrative and emotional arcs into dancefloor-oriented tracks.
Their career arc saw a major breakthrough in the early 2010s with hits like 'Worst Love,' which solidified their reputation for soulful, sample-heavy house music. Culturally, they occupy a space between the academic and the underground, running their own label DISKOMAFIA and emphasizing a multi-dimensional approach to music as a cultural product. Their influence web connects the precision of German tech-house with the loose, swung rhythms of 90s boom-bap. Critical consensus highlights their versatility, noting that their productions work equally well on high-fidelity club systems and casual home setups. Following Robotti's move to the US and focus on solo work, the project has continued to evolve while maintaining its core commitment to groove and soul.
