The Shape of Sound in Motion
Machina is not a setup—it’s a force, a shifting entity of rhythm, decay, and momentum. No two performances are the same. Some nights, it’s a storm of guitars, synths, and pounding drums, twisting and mutating in real time. Other nights, it’s just the VerseLab MV-1, stripped to its core, carrying the weight of the show alone. Built for one, open to many, Machina expands and contracts, adapting to the space, the crowd, and the moment. Machina is the vessel that breathes life's rhythm. Whether soaring in reverberant echoes or grinding through distortion and decay, Machina is movement, momentum, and electricity—an evolving force, alive in the moment, built to transform.
At its helm is DJ Per Se, the guiding force behind Machina’s evolution. Within this ever-changing sound, two projects take form:
Fallen Feathers – A cinematic, ethereal expression, blending melody and atmosphere into something dreamlike and immersive.
Ø – A darkwave-driven pulse, built on deep grooves, raw energy, and the tension between structure and chaos.
