Topo & Roby was a 1980s Italian Italo disco duo consisting of Roby, the stage name of American-Italian vocalist Simona Zanini, and Topo, a robot. Zanini sang all vocal parts, including the automated voice of Topo, and the music was written, performed and produced by keyboardist Aldo Martinelli and producer Fabrizio Gatto.

Topo & Roby are mostly remembered, apart from their unusual line-up, for the song "Under the Ice" (1984), which received significant airplay in European disco clubs and radio stations and reached number 20 in France.
