Shit Robot on RBMA Radio
Marcus Lambkin, also known as Shit Robot was born and bred in the suburbs of Dublin, Ireland.
Growing up on a steady diet of Killing Joke, Dead Kennedys and the Buzzcocks, he ventured into the nightclubs of Dublin where he discovered Acid House in the late Eighties. Things were never to be the same and when his friends began throwing parties and booking DJs such as Andrew Weatherall and David Holmes, Marcus was schooled in the art of the DJ "set".
A lucky strike in the Green-Card lottery led the Robot to New York City where, after a chance meeting with some like-minded friends in the East Village, he was invited to play some records at the infamous rock venue "Brownies" on Sunday night after the bands had finished.
A residency here and a mixtape there led to gigs all over the big apple, including a residency at the legendary Save The Robots. A few years later and Marcus is now a fully-fledged member of the DFA crew, and co-founder of his own record label Plant Records.
You can catch Shit Robot this weekend at Electric Picnic.
