Reviewed By Sharla Cartner

Robert Delirio a name well known in the Italy underground scene as the bassist and a founder of Atrox - a famous Italian punk rock hardcore band. This innovative punk rocker is now living in California and has recorded a new CD "Digital Core!" Robert is now infusing Punk Rock Hardcore with Techno, and is producing some fast and furious hardcore punk music. He is using the methods normally used by the Hip Hop scene, looping, sampling,
digital recording and software instruments.

Robert Delirio plays with:

Workstation: Dell Dimension

Software: ProTools LE
Soft Synth: Xpand!, Reason
Synth: Roland Fantom x8
Guitar: Ibanez
Ampli: Line 6
Mic: Rhode NT-1
Mixer: Mackie 14

This is where Punk meets Techno and the result is highly intense music and is unbelievably impressive. Digital-CORE is fifteen hardcore tracks dealing with issues such as genetically modified food, global warming and the
new economy impact. The punk style vocals spin out the crafty clever lyrics, the music is explosive
with stompin' drumbeats, contagious guitar riffs and quirky musical effects.

The tunes "G.M.O.," "Hot Heat," "In the SUV," "Made in China,"
"O.G.M." and "Atrox remix" are the stand out tracks for me.

01. G.M.O. - The Invasion
of Genetically Modified Organisms
"Added genes it’s all we’ve got."
02. HOT HEAT - Global warming effects
"I can’t breathe in, I’m going to pass out."

"Stuck in traffic your deepest obsession."
06. DREAM OF HAPPY HOLIDAYS - The most profitable
time of the year

07. MADE IN CHINA - Manufacturing disappeared 
from US & Europe (and Australia)

08. UNITED NATIONS OF STANDARDIZED FOOD -
All restaurants offer the same menu
"Since they taste too weird for the masses."
