Machine is a unique compilation album and collaborative effort, produced by the Elektron-Users community.

    Machine – a single word and concept that has guided the imagination of electronic musicians for decades: one word that has captured the attention of electronic music makers, from the early pioneers to the electronic luminaries of today. As relevant as ever, we have chosen this concept to provide a starting point for the Machine compilation album. The compilation seeks to investigate various aspects of this term, and bring some new interpretations to the table.

    The album consists of 15 magical tracks of contemporary electronic music, crafted by artists from all corners of the world. The tracks and artists are united by the Machine concept, and the loud and proud use of Elektron musical instruments. The love of Elektron instruments has been a primary inspiration behind the album, and what united us in the first place.

    All proceeds from the album will go to the World Wildlife Foundation.

    ” This compilation was initiated by the love for Elektron music machines: the Machinedrum, the Monomachine and the Sidstation. These electronic instruments have built up a following of avid users that value their abilities. We think these machines are unique vehicles for carrying the culture and heritage of electronic music through their use of grid- based sequencers, creative qualities and man-machine potential and we regard them as cross-cultural, genre-defying machines for generating motion and emotion. These machines inspire us. “

    The Berlin-based netlabel Crazy Language released their third compilation, for the occasion an unreleased version of Mightymovements, a track from the album La fille verte is joined to the crazy trip !

    « Complex and sometimes crazy !
    It is always difficult to grab peoples attention for electronic music released in the world wide web and it might not be helpful to publish a compilation of electronic music between Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
    Anyway, the language of music is complex and sometimes crazy in a positive way and Crazy Language presents a really great finish after plentypublications in 2008.
    The compilation features 23 artists from across the world. This includes a global survey of the very active electronic music scene and it shows how multifaceted music from IDM to Electronica and Abstract Noise could sound. The Crazy Compilation #3 is definitely not engaged to provide 2-hour-changeless music. In fact it is like a demonstration that each kind of music regardless of abstraction has its value set to be heard. »
