Bless This Machine: Forging Sonic Frontiers with Unconventional Soundscapes

Hailing from the vibrant musical landscape of Edinburgh, Bless This Machine is an audacious and boundary-pushing collective venturing into the uncharted realms of leftfield experimental electronic music. Comprised of visionary artists and sonic explorers Bless this Machine blend unconventional sounds, captivating textures, and thought-provoking narratives into a mesmerizing sonic tapestry. Their ever-evolving sonic palette draws inspiration from a diverse array of influences, ranging from glitchy beats to intricate sound design, from ambient atmospheres to intricate polyrhythms. 

At the core of Bless This Machine's ethos lies a deep commitment to pushing artistic boundaries. Their compositions are not merely a soundscape; they are profound explorations of emotions, concepts, and the very essence of human experience. Each track is meticulously crafted to transport the listener on an immersive journey, evoking a wide spectrum of feelings, from introspection and melancholy to elation and wonder.
Through their music, Bless This Machine invites listeners to challenge their preconceptions, expand their musical horizons, and embrace the boundless possibilities of sound.

Now an established force in contemporary Techno, Mike Bierbach, better known under his stage name Rødhåd is someone who has seriously put in the work. Having cut his teeth DJing as a relatively unnoted (but well loved by those in the know) local in Berlin for 10 years, one could argue that by the time success knocked on his door, he was more than ready for playing the international stage. It was during these 10 years of obscurity when he refined his craft to become the singular DJ he is now. 

Launching his party-series-turned-label Dystopian in 2009 was what truly tipped the ball over for Rødhåd. In a time where the Berlin scene was heavily oversaturated by fluffy, miscellaneous dance music, he & his peers set out to form a platform for real techno. The reception to this was raucous. 

Although he has lauded productions and remixes to his name, DJing is his true forte. Before abandoning his day job as a draftsman in construction “The Red” (as some call him due to his gingered, bearded appearance) was known for playing very long sets in Berlin’s most notorious hideaways. 

With an album, several EPs & remixes for a multitude of different artists under his belt, Rødhåd the producer has received equal praise as Rødhåd the DJ. Dystopian has hosted most of his releases, but in 2018 he founded a new label WSNWG that serves as a home for collaborative productions, excavated in sessions at his East-Berlin studio with his peers such as Lucy, Alex.Do, & Antigone.
