Vote Robot is a canadian duo who produce a wonderful mix
of glitchy melodic ambience, experimental electronica, and
light touches of indie pop. Fans of early Oval/Microstoria,
Jeremy Boyle, Robert Babciz, Tom Steinle, Novisad, etc
should really enjoy the Vote Robot output. Vote Robot
have a 15-track LP out on the Canadian Vegas label and
a ?-track remix LP, called Versions, featuring mixes from
Yacka Tundra, Climax Golden Twins, Nova Scotias, Will
Simmons, Corvalis, Ralph Haxton, French Paddleboat,
Dasbild, Joe Bloggs, and Vote Robot. The Versions LP is
also out on the Vegas label.

On a related Vote Robot note...
Glad someone mentioned the French Paddleboat release because it
is an excellent but little known treasure that was released last
month. French Paddleboat is the guise of Scott August who is ½
of the excellent Vote Robot duo. The Conversions in Metric cd,
on Canadian Scratch label, is the first French Paddleboat cd after
two excellent cassette-only releases on the Granted Passage
label. Anyway, the sound of the Conversions in Metric cd is
an excellent mix of poppy electronica with just a touch of
experimental glitchy electronics proding a nice Isan vs Oval
sound. Recommended.
