If you are a freak-a-zoid, Bobby Evans is your friend. "Freak-A-Zoid Robotz (RMXXOLOGY Theme)" is his new single, so get ready for some serious electro-pelvic gyrations. The song sports whip-it-good drums, ass-clapping bass, and synapse-snapping synthesizers...but not today, not here, not now. Instead we're freaking on one of the single's bonus cuts, the Freakapella, reveling in the isolated voice of a loving droid as it gives props to the pioneers of Miami Bass music: Freak-A-Zoid Robotz Acapella. FREAK-A-ZOID ROBOTZ (RMXXOLOGY THEME) ACAPELLA And now for a word from the Bobby Evans:  "While making 'Freak-A-Zoid Robotz' I was taking in a steady diet of bass and early electro, Afrika Bambaataa, Gucci Crew II, Maggotron, DJ Smurf — a lot of the artists who wound up getting name-checked on my song. Even the SP-12, TR-808, and TR- 909 are mentioned on the chorus. Those machines were the foundation of the music so I knew I had to work them in. Musically 'Freak-A-Zoid Robotz' is steeped in Bass references, the drums are 808s, there's arpeggiated synths, and of course the Vocoder! Also everything in the mix was touched by the same classic reverb that Prince used on 'When Doves Cry'." Thanks Bobby. Freak!
