One More Robot | New Issue

New issue of One More Robot magazine out now.

Gil Scott-Heron, Radiohead, Miles Davis, Prince, The Beatles, D’Angelo, and Jay-Z are among the artists featured in One More Robot’s Autumn Issue special feature ‘The 100 Songs That Changed the Game’…

In a special article for their eighth issue, Dublin’s cultural journal One More Robot polled their team of music writers to create a list of 100 of the most influential post-World War II songs. A huge 19 page feature, each song choice is accompanied with some brief notes written by a contributor passionate about its inclusion, as well as insights into particularly influential artists and introductions to each featured decade to add extra perspective.

“We probably could have stretched it out to another 100, such was the scope and quality of the tracks nominated by our writers,” says editor Dean Van Nguyen, “But we had to draw the line somewhere.”

One artist to be featured in the piece was Gil Scott-Heron. For the issue, One More Robot commissioned artist John Breiner to paint a special portrait of the singer, songwriter, poet and novelist, who sadly died earlier this year. Breiner’s work appears on the new issue’s front cover.

Also included in the new issue, writer Michael A. Gonzales recounts the turbulent relationship between lowly paperback writer Jim Thompson and rising filmmaker Stanley Kubrick. Derek Owens chats to Luke Ford, one time chronicler of the adult film industry, and there’s coverage from the magazine’s recent Battle of the Bands event The Rock-Off Redemption, including interviews with the joint winners Race The Flux and Tandem Felix.
