FAX & FRIENDS | Fax Machine EP release

Fax Machine celebrates the release of their upcoming EP. Performances by Fax Machine and other friends TBA. The band about the event: "We are Fax Machine. After founding member, drummer & singer Max van Rossem died last year, we finished our EP. We invite you to celebrate with us. Holding this record in our hands, we look back on the nine years of musical friendship that led up to it. From the very first time in our rehearsal space when we wrote Giraffe and Variations - how stoked we were to have written our own songs; how cool we thought the one-word titles were - to our last studio session with Max when he was still alive. For us, this record feels like a time machine: Spreadsheets of Love (demo, released online late 2024) has a more acoustic, funky disco sound, while Algorithms of Devotion has a more electronic sound (more drive, depth, and darkness; more corporate funk) that we were still developing when Max passed. We have this vivid image of Max in the studio when we were working on Algorithms of Devotion: jumping and dancing around with the vocoder in one hand and the microphone in the other, rocking out with this mischievous look in his eyes… Unfortunately, he died before...
