Of the many aliases attributed to Orlando, FL-based creative person Travis Dugald Stewart (aka Syndrone, tstewart) Machine Membranophone is handily the near well-known. Although ab initio conceived as an bulwark fire hydrant for Stewart's drill'n'bass meanderings, Machine Drum's outset populace release was a misty, skittering mishmash that owed more to rap music and ambient than early Squarepusher. Indeed, the bursting "Izey Rael" would raise to be the templet for Simple machine Drum's ensuing long-player. Recorded during the summer of 2000 through and through to early 2001 on location in Hickory, NY, and eventually released on Merck, the glorious Now You Recognize would finally be released to subway herald, unwaveringly establishing the 19-year-old James Maitland Stewart as one of IDM's brightest hopes.
