MAQUINA. 'PRATA'

With 'PRATA', MAQUINA. unleash a blistering fusion of minimal krautrock repetition, industrial techno, and EBM—reimagined through the raw, organic force of a power trio. Eschewing synthesizers in favor of relentless drums, scuzzy basslines, and piercing guitar FX, the Lisbon band channels club energy through a punk-psychedelic lens. Across six high-octane tracks, 'PRATA' captures the sweat, urgency, and intensity of the band’s notorious live shows, translating dancefloor chaos into pure sonic combustion.

This is dance music made by humans, not machines—yet it hits with machine-like precision and primal fury. Born from a year of improvisation and studio experimentation, 'PRATA' dives deep into texture and feeling, blurring the lines between noise and melody, structure and spontaneity. Co-produced by Carlos de Jesus (Sunflowers), the album paints vivid, tactile soundscapes meant to be felt as much as heard. A bold and immersive evolution from their 2023 EP 'DIRTY TRACKS FOR CLUBBING', this is MAQUINA. at full throttle: unfiltered, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.
