JTJ has been one of my true friends and supporters in LA, and in my opinion this is some of his best work to date. I’m a big fan of his and grateful for him to have written a solo record for my label Slothacid Records to take part in our mission to spread love with music. SLO004 is out this Tuesday 23rd.

Hello world!!
We created this track messing around in the studio while under lockdown a few weeks ago. As it grew arms and legs we realized it was not only relevant to the times we are currently living in but also contained an important message.
So we decided to make it available for a small donation, with all money received being donated to The American Nurses Coronavirus Response Fund - which provides assistance to frontline nurses who are putting their lives on the line to protect our own.
More information can be found on their website but please give generously to help these amazing men and women do their job.

Stay home, stay safe and wash your hands!
Much love, Sacha, TauOn & Josh

Shoutouts to Mayor Garcetti and Lee Wells for the vocal!
- So far we donated 250$ proceeds of the track sales on Bandcamp -

Hey sloth fam, thanks for bearing with me! 🖤I've been looking forward to share this recording of one of my last appearances for a massive crowd for the time being, live @ CRSSD Festival 2020 in San Diego. I had a truly great time during this 1 hour set and it's been a pleasure to take you on a journey as always. Much love, Sacha
Hey sloth fam, here’s a small token of my love and gratitude 🖤 Thanks for your support and patience, I’m getting something ready for me and you to stay in touch over the next months, stay tuned. For now though, I uploaded the recording of one of my last live appearances on the decks for now at @sound_nightclub in Hollywood, Los Angeles, 2/22/2020. The recording is 5 hours 20 minutes long. It also features @tau0n , @whoishush and @dj_jtj , all friends collaborators of my label @slothacid , who hopped on each for a few trax during the night. The mix is a journey, going up and down, I was having such a blast and got loose like my Italian self when I cook pasta while drinking a bottle of red wine in the process. Also I was sober that night. Let's remember the good times we had and cherish great memories 4ever, like this musical snapshot.
"Whistle Tippin' EP" Sacha Robotti, Steve Darko, JTJ SLO003
"The third release on my label Slothacid, out 7th February, is a three-tracker collaborative effort - a collab between me and the talented Steve Darko on two tracks, as well as me, my friend JTJ and Steve on the third one. The title track "Whistle Tippin' " is a funky jam featuring an infamous internet meme you might recognize, "Eliminate“ can be interpreted as a sonic crossover between Mars Attacks and a citrus fruit, and "The Inside" is what you could call the dark passenger of this EP. All tracks are clubtested dance floor highlights whenever we play them! Enjoy! X Sacha"

***After spending the latter half of the 2000s cutting his teeth in the music industry as one half of Robosonic, Belgian producer Sacha Robotti has spent the last decade on a solo tip, cranking out colourful and vibrant house music. However, for his next release he's teamed up with Boston producer and multi-instrumentalist Steve Darko for new EP Whistle Tippin.
First track out of the gates is "The Inside", a slippery and energetic feet-mover with a bit more of a techno influence than past outings, but still packed with deep grooves and plenty of bass. The rest of the three-track release features the title track and "Eliminate", a darker club track produced with Robotti's good friend and collaborator, L.A producer JTJ.
Speaking with Complex via email, Robotti told us: "I'm very excited about this third release on my label Slothacid! It's a collab with Steve Darko who I'm a huge fan of. We worked on two tracks together and are joined by my production buddy JTJ on the third. "The Inside" is the dark passenger of this EP, it started off as Steve‘s idea of a more techy roller with kind of psychotic vocals and a more alarming vibe than the two other originals. We kicked the project back and forth a few times until we had the final result you can hear! Hope you enjoy!"***

Sloth Sanctuary Live @ Sound LA (June 2018 Outtake)
Last Sloth Sanctuary was amazing! Here's a sneak peak of what's to come on Saturday!
"Hello Insomniacs! I created this track with my buddy JTJ in LA, we had a lot of fun making 'Play A Game'. The track is a dirty little nugget based on a siren-like repetitive melody capable of spiraling your mind into a meltdown; the whole thing sits on a haunting bassline and boasts some alien sound effects, and if you listen closely you can hear X-rated vocal samples. Enjoy!"

"Newcomer Sacha Robotti hit hard last year with his bellowing Dirtybird release 'Thump Bumper', which appeared on the San Francisco imprint's 10-year anniversary compilation. Following this release, Sacha made the move to Los Angeles and now has a hefty festival schedule to look forward to, including a spot on CRSSD San Diego's unparalleled Spring 2016 lineup.
'Viral' is yet another funky booty house tune from the Belgian-bred, Italian-German hybrid. The track is set to be released on International House of Sound as part of the CRSSD Spring 2016 compilation. The comp will feature music from Odesza, Hot Since 82, Gorgon City, J.Phlip, Tiga, Will Clarke and more artists from the stellar lineup.
Catch Sacha Robotti at CRSSD San Diego alongside Damian Lazarus, Loco Dice, Cirez D and more for one full-on house and techno weekend, going down on March 5 and 6."

Amigos! I recorded this mix while on tour in the USA recently. "The Basement" asked me if they could air my mix on the FM waves of Ibiza Global Radio. As I'm moving to LA after 16 years living in Berlin, this recording is dedicated to the many awesome people I met both in Berlin and LA. Enjoy!

DIRTYBIRD CAMPERS! <3 <3 <3 I just uploaded this mix I recently made for the Dirtybird Campout & Thump / Vice. Thank you for the kind words, listening, spreading the <3 and shaking those booties!
Thump article: http://bit.ly/1hpmS8D Mixcloud: http://bit.ly/1Mc8xsU
"Half-Italian, half-German, raised in Belgium, trained by an ex-Kraftwerk percussionist, leveled up in Berlin, and adored by the Dirtybird organization, Sacha Robotti is part of some evil transcontinental conspiracy to manufacture the perfect house DJ. And it seems like it just might have worked.
When Robotti makes a rare stateside excursion to perform at the upcoming, inaugural Dirtybird Campout next weekend, he'll be bringing his A-game, assuming he doesn't get taken out by Claude during capture the flag or attacked by a gang of ornery squirrels hopped up from nibbling substances they found on the ground. Both of these are legitimate possibilities.
'Animal Encounters' is the theme for the mix Robotti has put together for us, so imagine a dance circle of ornery squirrels getting down to Butch, DJ Funk, Radio Slave, DJ Deeon, Kill Frenzy and Robotti himself in what is an immediately-gripping selection of house and techno cuts. For reals, though--Don't feed the animals (foods or drugs)."

Giant Pandas love Bamboo! Yum.
"8 years after Rainer Weichhold's original 'Bamboo' release on Great Stuff Recordings kickstarted his dj- and producer career it's now obviously time for a new version. And it also marks his very first own release on his label Gold Rcrds including Rainer's own update for 2015 plus remixes from Ardalan and Sacha Robotti, two of his favorite producers of the moment. "

"My remix for RIVA STARR is out on Snatch! I took the original and gave it a more low end 'urban' approach while focussing on the soulful vocal vibe, added a time stretch in the middle and some mozzarella - here we go!"

Excited about this one! <3
"Dirtybird artists meet Toy Tonics for the second time. First Ardalan and now Sacha Robotti and ZDS join the German label for a collaborative EP of two tracks of quirky bass influenced techno.
Sacha has a rich musical history. He studied music with none other than KARL BARTOS from Kraftwerk. He has many solo works out under his own name (including a recent collaboration with Claude VonStroke and the massive 'The Major' feat DJ Rush). He has also found time to be half of the Berlin based duo Robosonic.
Nat Self aka ZDS is a London based producer who has been fortunate enough to have played many of the worlds best clubs (including a residency at Panorama Bar) and to have had out a long string of music on a multitude of great labels including : Dirtybird, This and That, and Classic to name a few.
This EP should surprise many of their old fans and make them a lot of new friends for sure. Check the EP out!"
Excited about this one! Out in 10 days. <3

YO! I made this little monster with homie Kevin Knapp for my fave label's 10th birthday! Here's what Claude Vonstroke has to say about the release:
"I can't think of a better way to celebrate DIRTYBIRD's 10 year anniversary than by releasing 14 great tracks that I fully support. There’s no fluff in here. Everyone from our amazing talent pool has delivered their A game material. And l have also added a few great new names to the family.
It’s hard to believe that this little project started in my bedroom in the Lower Haight, San Francisco 10 years ago. I can distinctly remember hand stamping vinyl promos at home with my friend Fernando and trying to figure out the best way to mail them to Europe. I remember the very first guy to ever call me back about our music was Edgar Dirksen in Frankfurt, Germany, who was working at a now defunct distributor called Neuton. This was the only place that would agree to sell our records back in 2005 and I still thank him for taking the chance on us.
There have been many many people involved since the beginning. Special thanks to all who have helped me run the shop at different times such as my wife Aundy, Mike Bosley, Christian Martin, Adam Carter, Sharen Norden, Bryan James, Luke Williams, Jonathan McDonald, Alastair Duncan and Stacey Gamble. Of course I couldn’t have done it without my good friend and the amazing music producer, Justin Martin, who helped shape our sound and also really define what it means to be part of DIRTYBIRD.
A lot has happened in the music industry over the last 10 years but I like to think we have stayed consistent and managed to enjoy the ride. The players may change but the theme stays the same; keep it fun and funky. So please enjoy this very special compilation of our music and here’s to another 10 years of DIRTYBIRD!
Much Love, Claude VonStroke"
