bbdigi001: machine rock by Machine Rock

(Now available to download)

(Originally released in 2001)

Machine Rock by Machine Rock

It all started back in 1999 when I moved to Sheffield. I=92d done dance
music for years and by the time I got to the home of the Cabs, Warp
and all things Bleep I was a bit frazzled and getting a bit bored with
music. Seemed to me it had all gone a bit drum and bass back then!

Back in the early nineties I was in a band called the PCM and we did
ravey stuff. Releasing a couple of tracks but never getting near any
radio play. It wasn=92t always about that though... we used to beg steal
and borrow so we could press stuff, mainly so we could go out and hear
it played. At the time we used to harass a lot of the techno dj=92s (SS,
Slipmat, Daz Willot etc) around Stoke on Trent and Manchester with our
white labels.

So, I get to Sheffield and literally as I=92m turning up... Warp head
south! Thing is though, with Sheffield I was always inspired by people
like the Cabs, league etc and the thing that kept me going when I
turned up was that the Allseeing I ruled the place at the time.

You would see NY Sushi flyers everywhere, you had the best club in Le
Citrus @ the casbah to go out to, nights like Abysynthesis at the
National centre brought a brace of the Sheff electronic gliteratti
together and Add N to X were still kicking and screaming.

All of a sudden you saw this totally inclusive scene that someone who
had always hidden behind pseudonyms like myself could =93possibly=94 get
in... didn=92t happen but had a fantastic time J

My entry point into the rich tapestry of Sheff was to open a record
shop in the Forum. V&M had the dance side covered so I funnelled every
bit of credit I could muster into Indie(!) Didn=92t work and we shut
after 6 months... but those 6 months were some of the most exciting
times I=92ve ever had.

You=92d meet friends through friends and that=92s how I ended up with the
Dr! Dobrovolski to be precise. He=92d some serious equipment up in his
attic studio and whilst we tinkered in mushi mushi, adk citrus what we
did ended up for me turning into Machine Rock.

Paul (the Dr) introduced me to other forms of software, I=92d been
brought up on cubase or octamed and now it was all Reactor or Fruity.
It was out of these experiments that I managed to muster 3 tracks that
were the first crop of Machine Rock.

Shame though... my time in Sheff came to pass. Bankruptcy and a broken
heart forced me back to the parents=92 place where with an old office pc
I pushed every bit of CPU into what became machine rock by machine
rock demos.

The set was basically the first 6 songs on this album, 4 of which were
recorded in Sheff and then tidied up in Congleton & Manchester. With
the help of mates Dr Dobrovolski and a new recruit Andy B we took
these tunes and planned playing them live. The thought of playing
electronic music live was something I couldn=92t get my head around.
When we did get something that sounded audible there was only one
place to play.

So back to Sheffield we went. Pete Dogdrill booked us into the Casbah
in various support sets (one of which was Snow Patrol!) and aside from
a nightmare gig supporting a band called Ugigami at the Grapes for the
most part we went down okay.

Well that was it wasn=92t it... we=92re off.

Machine Rock by Machine Rock. Hope you like it.
