Artist: BT. Album: These Humble Machines.

After reinventing himself as more of a headphone artist with 2006’s glitchy album This Binary Universe, BT takes it a step further on These Humble Machines, an album that explores the producer’s love of freedom and exploration. This is actually the single-disc, slightly shortened version of the two-disc These Hopeful Machines, but just like its parent, most tracks here build, fade away, morph, and wander about with little care for what radio, clubs, or a major label might require. These Humble Machines doesn’t try to convince; it’s meant to reward the already converted with a vast wonderland of melodic glitch and prolonged bliss.

Because some tracks exceed 10 minutes in length, the album spans two discs with six tracks on each.

This is actually the single-disc, slightly shortened version of the two-disc These Hopeful Machines, but just like its parent, most tracks here build, fade away, morph, and wander about with little care for what radio, clubs, or a major label might require. Fans who enjoy the glitch-meets-trance textures of Universe will find even more to love here, and more songs, too, as BT, the returning JES, and a handful of guest vocalists deliver the usual lyrics filled with modern mysticism. Riding Suddenly from its crunchy, avant opening to its Black Eyed Peas-like middle and on to its glitch-fueled.

I find it cheap to re-release the original album, edited down. At least he could have included bonus tracks or something, but instead, it's an attempt to cash out on a year old album. I'd suggest you'll get the original edition instead, because some tracks are just better longer.Length issues aside, it is a good album though. If you hated BT for Emotional Technology, then chances are this won't change your mind, especially with tracks like "The Emergency" and "Forget Me", which sounds a bit too poppy. But there are some brillant tracks like "Every Other Way" & "Le Nocturne De Lumière", which is easily the best track on the album.I'd give this a 7/10, because it's just a cash in, but it's great album never the less. I'd suggest getting the original 2 disc edition, because the longer intros/outros really adds a lot to some tracks. If long tracks aren't your thing though, then this is reconmendable.
