Machinedrum

A collision of battle-style turntablism and surgical IDM. Brittle, stuttering beats and vocal 'sentences' that feel like a transmission from a glitching radio.

October 2006 · The Inside

A restless and intellectually curious exploration of rhythmic deconstruction.

Moments Worth Listening For
The aggressive needle-drop aesthetic of track 2 where scratches become the primary melodic lead.
The way the 808 kicks in track 13 collide with brittle, high-frequency glitch artifacts.
The rhythmic tension of the 'Juggle Sentences' where vocal samples are physically manipulated into new percussive languages.
