Cracked Circuits
Taking a sci-fi book title for inspiration, the Machine Stops serve up an individualistic take on electro.
Looking to a grungy, wiry take on the style, all the tracks on ‘Circuits’ are based on noisy beats, skewered rhythms and dense basslines. While this occasionally sounds too impenetrable and like they’re making music merely for art’s sake, their warped take on clubby funk – ‘Mooch’ and ‘Justice For All’ – and their fusion of grainy beats and Detroit musicality is well worth investigation.
