Drawing from minimal krautrock repetition, pounding EBM and industrial techno, MAQUINA. explore the
boundaries of these genres with force – carving out an adrenaline-fuelled sound that’s as equally suited to
dark, sweaty back rooms as to the dance floor.
Though their sound might have the club in its sights – ‘PRATA’ follows their aptly-titled 2023 debut EP
‘DIRTY TRACKS FOR CLUBBING’ – this is an organic dance music that’s equally punk and psychedelic,
played by a guitar-drums-bass power trio formation firing on all cylinders, without a synthesiser in sight.
Having already amassed a notorious reputation in Portugal for the all-out energy of their live shows, it’s no mean feat to replicate that in the studio but on
‘PRATA’ they have managed exactly that – owing to a creative approach largely rooted in improvisation, both
on stage and in the studio.
In support of the release, MAQUINA. just finished a European tour with A Place To Bury Strangers and play
album release shows in Lisbon this week, followed by more headline shows and festival appearances
throughout the summer.
