Drose / Boy Man Machine+ / Compact Disc
Boy Man Machine+ is an album by Drose, an experimental rock band from Columbus, Ohio, centered around the haunting songwriting and voice of Dustin Rose. It marks the first release in Computer Students’ Anatomical Reissues series, which emphasizes conceptual design, presentation, and packaging.
Exploring the torments of sentience, the album merges human emotion with the raw sounds of machines across four unrelenting sides of vinyl. Gregory Packet’s jagged guitar lines and John Mengerink’s unusual drum patterns intertwine with mechanical sonic sources, including CNC mills, lathes, robotic welding, and pneumatics, representing the voice of the machine. The result is a disorienting blend of harsh, mesmerizing, and strangely beautiful soundscapes.
Written and recorded during the design and construction of a race car at the Center for Automotive Research in Columbus, the album reflects a unique intersection of art and industry. Boy Man Machine+ combines Drose’s 2016 album of the same name with their debut 7" a voice and a collection of unreleased tracks.
All recordings have been freshly remastered by Carl Saff, further enhancing this visceral and thought-provoking work.
