Muzik 4 machines is a minimal electro house act from Montreal, Canada.
	
 
The project was started in 1991 by TBA03 with the goal of making music to listen for himself.  the project was put on hold a few years then in 2007, he resumed where he left with gigs and events outside and in clubs, small venues and bars.
 
It all began with a Portastudio, a guitar and a TR-707 drum machine, early compositions were a mix between early house and grunge music, mixing the 4 on the floor rhythm with loud fuzz guitar. As the technology evolved, so did the Project; recruiting performers and signers and buying, finding or building new gadgets and sound mangling devices. When computer became powerful enough to generate and process sound, a new page of M4M history started.
 

The Music also evolved from simple riffs over a steady beat to more complex and mysterious texture in some works and at the same time exploded into Rave party music in others. They got some good charts apparition online and even sold Cd's worldwide on the then underground mp3.com website that since closed.
 

Over the years, different styles were explored as the personel changed (house, techno, drum and bass, rock, noise rock, pop, trance, and some unclassifiable sounds). Guests including Luke, MisterW, YUL and DP participated to different Live events and recordings (all available online).
 

Back to minimal electro house, Muzik 4 Machines is now producing new material, performing it live, and distributing it via bit torrent and youtube.

M4mLive november 18th 2010 - Music for Machines By Machines  - truncated :(

First recorded flight with the Korg SAS-20. Heavily laden with effects. 

The Korg is a gift from http://soundcloud.com/kev7bx

Korg SAS-20 was the first Korg keyboard with a chord recognition computer onboard. It dates from 1983 and weighs 11kg. Solid piece of equipment.

Forward in which direction? First flight with SAS 20

Phil Weeks is a house music purist. Whether DJing or producing, the Parisian with the huge personality delivers raw beats influenced in equal measure by
classic Chicago house and nu‐school French flair, underpinned with a hip‐hop attitude. His long running Robsoul Recordings also defines him as one of the
most skilled label heads in underground house music.
In the studio Phil is dedicated to classic hardware like Akai’s MPC 3000 sampler and Roland’s TR909 drum machine. He has released more than 250 tracks and
remixes since his debut in 2000, working with labels including 2020 Vision, Music For Freaks, Brique Rouge, Detour, Adult Only and his own Robsoul, which
is responsible for the majority of his original output. 

Phil’s work can also be found in the collaborations Fries & Bridges (with Hector Moralez) and PS Project/Bubba Beats & Kid Piston (with DJ Sneak). Production highlights include Phil’s three albums ‘Love Affair’ (2011), ‘Yeah I Like That’ (2003) and ‘Raw Instrumental’ (2012), alongside style‐defining singles ‘Hypnose’, ‘It Put Me Well’ and ‘All Day Every Day’. The music has been
heavily supported by international dance press including achieving accolades such as MixMag’s and De‐Bug’s ‘Album Of The Month’, while DJs ranging from
Danny Howells and Yousef to Mark Farina and DJ Sneak consistently play his tracks. Behind the decks, Phil has racked up enough air miles to take him around the
world several times over, with appearances at the world’s leading house clubs ‐ Queen’s Club, Sankeys, Circus, Ministry of Sound, Back to Basics and Stereo are
all regular haunts, alongside his Paris residency ‘Get Underground’ at the infamous Rex Club.

Phil has also fully embraced the relationship with his fans and house music fans in general – whether through his popular ‘Underground Chronicles’ video diaries
on Youtube or his personal relationships on Facebook.
Despite his success Phil isn’t one to brag. To him it’s all about keeping proper house music alive. Which just goes to prove Phil Weeks is a house music purist.

Solitary manipulator of soundproducing stuff. Mostly improvising in some way or many. 

You're free to download and use this music as you please. Sample,mix, fix or mangle it into unrecognisableness, but I want to hear the result. That's the only catch.
Can send you stems etc if wanted... 

Interested in collaborations/remixing/stuff.
Give feedback and hints as you see fit. Peer review is important in this kind of endeavour. I have no charts for these territories, no boundaries are in view, no limits.

Mixed with and mostly for headphones, not sure how it'll sound on sound systems. For some tracks it's advisable to turn the sound up, but some tracks are quite loud. I don't know what I'm doing half(or more of) the time.
Time is elusive and opportunities for spending time on my music comes and goes fast. An hour here and two hours there...I need coffee...
