Forever Pavot team up with their new android assistant Melchior to produce this album of Kraftwerk-inspired lo-fi, electro and robo-pop.
Melchior, who gave his name to the record, has the face of a ventriloquist's dummy, two plastic left hands, preppy clothes and a primitive logic circuit. Originally created by Emile Sornin to handle the interviews and deal with the socials. Melchior now shares songwriting credits and vocal parts vocoded to perfection. Not a jealous lad, Melchior makes way for a guest of choice on "UFO" and "Waiting for the sign": Lispector. Julie Margat sings and collaborated on the lyrics for these two bangers that provide a lot of context (robot angst is real). Kumisolo, a Tokyo-born, Paris-based artist, is also featured on "Postcard". Domotic, who mixes and co-produces, gives a nice spin to "Count to 10", a hip-hop/kraut rock crossover.
