14 October 2026 – Robyn and Mechatok Exchange Remixes in an Unexpected Electronic-Pop Collaboration

Swedish pop innovator Robyn and German electronic producer Mechatok have released two collaborative remixes, exchanging material from their respective catalogues and creating an intriguing connection between established dance-pop and contemporary experimental electronic music.

Mechatok has reworked Robyn's "Fembot", originally released on her influential 2010 album Body Talk. Robyn, meanwhile, has contributed a new interpretation of "Expression on Your Face", the Mechatok track featuring Swedish artists Bladee and Ecco2k. The collaboration developed from an existing creative relationship, including their work together during Robyn's Berlin performance earlier this year.

Her remix introduces additional vocals and a more explicitly pop-oriented arrangement to a composition originally associated with the experimental electronic scene. Mechatok's interpretation of "Fembot" approaches the older song from a contemporary production perspective, demonstrating how electronic arrangements can evolve across different generations of musicians. The collaboration is particularly interesting because Robyn has consistently maintained connections with emerging producers rather than relying exclusively on established commercial collaborators. Mechatok, meanwhile, has developed a reputation through music associated with the Drain Gang creative community.

Both recordings are now available through Young. The project demonstrates how remixes can function as genuine creative exchanges rather than merely promotional additions designed to increase streaming numbers. It also proves that a fifteen-year-old pop song can acquire an entirely new personality without requiring an expensive cosmetic procedure. Electronic music remains particularly effective at making the past sound suspiciously futuristic. Dive deeper into cutting-edge club sounds in our electronic section.
