TITLE: THE MACHINE SERVES/IN THE SHADOWS OF HUMANS
ARTIST: PIERCE WARNECKE
CATALOGUE: FR2011-07
MEDIUM: DIGITAL SINGLE
RELEASEDATE: 03/10/2011
Berlin-based audiophile Pierce Warnecke releases his digital single ‘The Machine Serves’ on October 3rd 2011 on Dutch label Fremdtunes. This single preludes his forthcoming EP ‘The Machine Regrets’ and introduces the listener to the beatstrumental universe of Pierce Warnecke.
The title-track blends an up-tempo groove and thumping drums with a catchy melody. On an abstract level, Warnecke was inspired by the story of a servant machine that somehow gains consciousness, realizing what a burden it is to live knowing that you won’t exist someday and subsequently reformats his memory and start over as a faithful stupid servant. ‘In The Shadows of Humans’ is the classic example of how well glitch and hiphop can collide: electronic instrumental hiphopbeats with a slight touch of avant-gardism.
