Anodyne Industries - Heart of the Machine (Empathy Records)

Crawling forth from the post apocalyptic wasteland that was once San Francisco…

Anodyne Industries is a genre defying battlefield of mechanised break beats and subtle melancholy. His sound teases us with the hope of a better future while punishing us for contemplating the futility of our daily existence.

Since he announced his arrival in 2009, Anodyne has released a series of successful singles and EPs to growing acclaim. He has shown little need to conform to genre – moving seamlessly from half time drum and bass to dubstep – always remaining intelligent.

Heart of the Machine comes in the form of a four track EP. Two tracks are pure Anodyne: the title track is a sci-fi infused half time drum and bass exercise in defiance, and Kanjou Nashi: an intelligent dubstep number with subtle IDM edges. The release is rounded off with two remixes by Empathy’s favourite masters of the dark arts: Nanotek, Mars and Lex.
