I am weeks late on this but I think Oneohtrix Point Never may have dropped the mix of the year. Daniel Lopatin did his first Essential Mix a few weeks back and it slaps.
The centrepiece of the mix is the mashing together of the raging techno of Pluto by Björk (as produced by Mark Bell of LFO) and Liquid's hardcore classic Sweet Harmony. Yet while both those tracks are well-known, I'd never come across the kitsch dutch synth-pop of Robots in Love by The Robots.
And that's about all I know about The Robots. Anyway, you've still got a couple of weeks left to listen to the mix on BBC Sounds. Do it.
