We, Michel Banabila and Rutger Zuydervelt, proudly present our new collaboration album, simply called 'Banabila & Machinefabriek'. It will be released December 12, on cd and as download.
Though we met quite a while ago, it took some time before before we actually started working on music together. But once we did, we quickly got caught up in an unstoppable workflow. Swapping files back and forth, layering and processing eachother's sounds, it felt like a perfect match. In a short but incredibly inspired time span, we created an exciting 40+ minute journey through warm drones, soft melodic gestures, mysterious crackling and outbursts of digital noise.
While the download presents the album as free-standing songs, the cd has the tracks jointed, making it one continuous trip. The disc comes in a digipak, with photography by Michel and design by Rutger.
