Thank You Machine is a collaboration between a collective of London producers and a
recently discovered musical engineering experiment from the 1950s. Found in an
unopened room of a research facility in North West London, the primitive music
technology has been rennoavted and used as the basis of this new project. When
feeding the sounds derived from the machine into a modern studio set up, one
10-second snippet of sound (Logo) resonated with the producers - as they recorded it
in the waveform on the screen spelled out the words 'Thank You Machine'. Whether it
was a quirk of fate or a calculated move from the original scientist, that was the
moment that Thank You Machine was born.
This EP is the first product of the project, incoroporating guest vocals and live
instrumentation from the unorthodox sounds derived from the Thank You Machine. This
takes in digital electro hip hop on 'Computerised', the liquid crystal smoothness of
'Four Corners', the Glitch Pop of 'So Long' and the protest soul of 'The Flame'.
