ELECTRONIC DARKWAVE DUO BEAUTIFUL MACHINES RELEASE NEW SINGLE “CONTROL”
NEW ALBUM SINGULARITY OUT IN 2022
Electronic darkwave duo Beautiful Machines have released new single “Control,” out now via Republic Of Music. “Control” is the first track to be taken from the duoβs forthcoming album Singularity. Itβs ambition is breathtaking, a stunning journey through the past to the future, inspired by Fritz Langβs Metropolis.
“We now live in a world, ever increasing in our reliance and connection with technology, which is advancing at break-neck pace, such that life becomes blurred as to what is really driving our motivations,” says the band. “Is it the multi-faceted algorithms and AI code which drive our ‘human’ behavior? Are we even in control or have we already lost control? These drivers become the gateway to further our merge between man and machine; arguably we have already breached that threshold. ‘Control’ is an invitation to a future in the making, as we quietly relinquish control.”
Beautiful Machines are putting the finishing touches to their new album Singularity. Singularity is an album, but itβs also an experience; a continually updating project that spans music, visuals, and performance, an act of synthesis that blends technology with art, the digital with the humane. On one level, itβs sparkling synth pop, in line with everyone from Giorgio Moroder to The Human League, Nine Inch Nails to Robyn. On another, itβs a total art experience, inspired by interstellar wanderings through the cosmic realms of Kraftwerk, and Isaac Asimov.
The band recently supported Wolfgang Flur at The Lexington. Look for news on live dates in the new year.
