Description
2023, 2×12″ LP, De:tuned. Transparent yellow vinyl.
Trickstery braindancer Luke Vibert lays down his next album via De:tuned Records, following prior releases on the imprint such as ‘Arcadia’. Refusing to opt for hypey trends, Vibert stays true to his craft on ‘Machine Funk’, sticking to cute electro, winding melodies and a light-hearted sense of humour. Packed with playful puns for track titles and music spanning everything from electronic reimaginings of helter skelters to funny spoonerisms, the 808 and 303 ring most true here. Whirly FM synthesis pokes through on tracks like ‘Juxtafication’ and ‘Moderneers Modernize’, while even a rare Vibert footwork bit shows up on ‘Taming Of The View’.
