Robots in Love smash the wall between rock and electronic music.
Known for their innovative production and dynamic live shows, they seamlessly merge heavy guitars and huge drums with driving electronics. The result is genre-defying but always recognisable as the Robots in Love sound.
Formed in October 2023 in Ōtepoti Dunedin, Aotearoa New Zealand.
Elenor Rayner (vocals, production) has credits on more than 80 releases as producer, vocalist or remixer and has played clubs and festivals around the world. Her solo releases are under the name Sobriquet. She has played in Soulscraper, Snog and The Crystalline Effect and she is the producer for dark pop act Human Confusion.
Alex Burchell (drums, production) is a classically trained multi-instrumentalist and producer with multiple releases. He remixes under the name Magnetique and is half of synthwave act Techno-Logique. He also plays in the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra, who recently supported The Chemical Brothers.
Tony Lumsden (bass) has been an international session and touring musician for many years, playing with Jan Hellriegel and Hello Sailor.
Having two producers from different backgrounds meant the band quickly established their unique sound. Elenor’s emotive goth-industrial programming and Burchell’s precise and sophisticated prog metal styling makes a formidable combination. The result is epic.
The band has been touring constantly around New Zealand and twice to Australia to play shows and a live-to-air on Melbourne radio.
They have released four EPs and had tracks on several compilations.
“Crush” has been described as a “pure hit of dopamine”. With their signature synths and heavy guitars it’s fast moving and builds to an uplifting finale.
The release includes a symphonic remix by Alex, under the name Magnetique, and a video edited by Elenor.
