Glaswegian multi-instrumentalist trio, Machines In Heaven, unveil ’20XX’ from forthcoming album

Glaswegian multi-instrumentalist trio Machines In Heaven return with a taste of their deliciously experimental and always danceable brand of indie-electronica in ’20xx’, taken from their ‘Phenomenology’ LP, set to drop 13th May via Hot Gem Tunes.

The three-piece, comprised of Greg Hurst, Davey Gwynne and Connor Reid, have been bringing together widescreen electro, sunshine-textured shoegaze, majestic post-rock and melodic synth-pop influences since the release of their debut album ‘bordersbreakdown’ in 2014. The LP won the group critical acclaim from MTV, Clash, The Skinny and BBC Radio 1’s Ally McCrae, and ushered in a relentless stream of successful subsequent releases.

Touring extensively across the UK with standout performances at T In The Park, Electric Fields, Wickerman and Kelburn Garden Party, they have drawn comparisons to the iconic sounds of DFA Records, Prince, Aphex Twin and Glasgow’s decibel-decimating finest Mogwai. ‘Phenomenology’ aptly represents the continued refinement and diversification of their unique sound; something which makes them harder to categorise with each fresh release. Yet one thing seems certain – the future belongs to the Machines.
