John Foxx And The Maths – The Machine

This beautiful, dark, analogue electronic soundtrack by John Foxx And The Maths is described as ‘eerie’, ‘evocative’ and ‘a triumphant score of chest-crushing anxiety’ by The Independent and The Guardian. John Foxx and Benge’s set of dystopian science-fiction themes were first heard in the critically acclaimed stage play of E.M. Forster’s ‘The Machine Stops’ in 2016. This album also features new mixes created especially for The Machine. Abstract, atmospheric vocals by John Foxx and Elizabeth Bernholz (Gazelle Twin). Artwork is by Jonathan Barnbrook.
