Robbert Bobbert and the Bubble Machine


So you're an original founder of Elephant Six. You've got production credits on both Neutral Milk Hotel records as well as work with Olivia Tremor Control and Beulah. You've made enough great albums with The Apples In Stereo to have a good shot at the Indie Rock Hall Of Fame, and on top of that, your solo projects Marbles and ulysses weren't too bad either.

What do you do next?

Write music for children educating them about science, maths and ethics! Make it into a cartoon!

That's the career path for Robert Schneider, aka Robbert Bobbert from Robbert Bobbert and the Bubble Machine. It's unclear who the Bubble Machine is as yet, but the bookies have thrown up the names of the bubble machine from the Flaming Lips at 3/1 and the bubble machine who formerly worked with Dublin Duck Dispensary at 10/1.

It makes a lot of sense when you think about it. Apples In Stereo + a straight admission that you're writing for children = Robbert Bobbert and the Bubble Machine.

But then, when you hear some of the songs about science, like 'Gravity', you'll realise that certain AIS songs, like for example 'Energy'... are exactly the same.

Check this one out:



Or if you want sound quality, try MySpace.

The man is obsessed with science and sums. When I brought the Apples over he all he wanted to see in Dublin was the Brougham bridge where Hamilton scribbled his quaternion. I think he shed a wee tear. Bless.

I think hes following in the footsteps of TMBG. Ever see this? http://www.giantkid.net
