Album Review: Machinedrum - Vapor City

Fiercely underground, Travis Stewart's Machinedrum project has for the past decade delivered the kind of tasteful tech that has served as a guiding light for the more discerning dance floors around the world. Machinedrum lands this month with a concept album that is intended to feel like a late night walk through the boroughs, districts and suburbs of so megapolis. Beneath the glossy veneer of production, Machinedrum amalgamates diverse dance styles to create a cohesive and palatable but ultimately experimental sound. Taking us from the ghettos to the affluent suburbs, Vapor City offers deep immersive listening.
