Robidat

Robidat is a dj and he is the founder of 51beats. In the real life, Roberto Mantovan is a physicist, and his research activity mainly relates with the study of materials for microelectronics and spintronics. Under the pseudonym "Robidat", RM has been involved in the djing from 1991 since the purchase of his first vinyl (FUSE, plus8 #013). This page summarizes the main projects in which Robidat is involved. He is constanly trying to push forward the selection of a highly noncommercial technominimal experience. Robidat will always try to make better the 51beats project

Robidat - dj set technominimal performed purely with genuine vinyls, no mp3, no laptop, only two MKII and a heavy bag!
Twins (Robidat, Alan) - dj set technominimal contaminated with scratch performances
"Robidat Statico" - dj set of fully netlabels catalougues selections. It was not possible even for me to resist in mixing netaudio staff, meaning the need for a laptop at some point....Robidat Statico starts 51mix, the 51beats side project where we would like to help the visibility of the netaudio culture by promoting high quality mixes and selections of netlabels tracks. Our first mix [51mix#001] "Statico" is characterized by a fine selection of ambient, techno, and complicated tunes which are all intelligently mixed together for an highly non-conventional mix and selection. 

The player on this page contains some mixes from Robidat and Twins (Robidat, Alan). All you can hear here are mixes/selections of genuine vinyls done in the last years, recorded on a DAT tape and now available as mp3 files. Thanks to Rising high Records, Plus8, UR, and all the existing and not yet existing high quality, non commercial labels. Thanks to the records shops still providing this music to us. Thanks to the web and to the people who have used it in the most intelligent way....
