“Scifi noises but with big feelings!” is how Dylan Hawke Diamond (aka Manic Machines) categorizes his music. Sweeping a wide variety of genres Dylan strives to put narrative and emotion first, rather than sticking to an old formula. Growing up in Atlanta, Georgia, he developed a passion for electronic music at a very young age. He also took classical piano lessons and started producing electronic music in High School. His work is inspired by his fascination for robotics and dystopian science fiction narratives:
“I often wonder if we as humans may only be cold physical machinery acting in a world governed by physics and statistics. However I liked to turn this seemingly dry and negative philosophy on its head by saying this only shows we are more than the sum of our parts. We may be chained to the mechanized random nature of the cells and atoms that make us up, but zooming out we see our lives are very much meaningful. If we can have emotions, relationships, personalities, and lives from the trillions of inner workings of inanimate parts, does this mean with enough complexity can a machine live, laugh, love?”
