Photo: Still from ‘Robots In Disguise – I Live In Berlin’
I’ve been thinking about posting Berlin Songs for a while now and hearing Robots In Disguise – I Live In Berlin last night has prompted me to get on and do it.
The songs may be about Berlin, from Berlin artists, recorded in Berlin or in some other way associated with Berlin. I have a pretty long list already thanks to Bine but if you have any favourites let me know in the comments.
According to the bio on their website:
ROBOTS IN DISGUISE are fronted by DEE PLUME (guitar and vocals) and SUE DENIM (bass and vocals). Part riot grrl princesses, part monsters of DIY musical mayhem, this maverick electro-indie-rock-dance duo has a reputation for fashion-forward style and energetic shows where Dee’s guitar and Sue’s grooving bass lines dance over chunky electronic beats and tell-it-like-it-is lyrics.
Take another look at their names and you’ll see that the pair are no strangers to the nuances of comedy. The eagle-eyed amongst you might recognise Robots In Disguise as The Electro Girls and The Goth Girls in The Mighty Boosh.
I Live In Berlin is taken from the third Robots In Disguise studio album, We’re In The Music Biz.

Good choice – like the song as well.

Thanks for the info. I took some photos of a Dave The Chimp piece in Berlin the other day as it happens.
