Travis Stewart aka Machinedrum reasserts his GOAT status with another brilliantly innovative album effortlessly traversing tempos and musical styles as only he can. ‘3FOR82’ comprises 12 high-intensity, ruminative tracks that thread the needle between his past, present and future selves. His first studio album since 2020’s ‘A View of U’, ‘3FOR82’ features an incredible cast of collaborators including Tinashe, Duckwrth, Mick Jenkins, Jesse Boykins III, KUČKA, AKTHESAVIOR, Tanerélle, deem spencer, Deniro Farrar and Topaz Jones. Between drum & bass, hip-hop, jazz, R&B, dazzling beat switches and a singular ear for sonics, Machinedrum adopts a rich, prismatic approach to collaboration, building on the uptempo vocal manipulations that won him acclaim in electronic communities, notably on 2011’s breakout LP ‘Room(s)’ and 2013 opus ‘Vapor City’. Printed inner sleeve housed in 3mm spined outer sleeve with hidden spot gloss ASCII art. Includes 20-page boutique zine and digital download. Artwork by Joseph Durnan [124 World].
