About Me |

| Miracle Man has been commissioned by Esopus magazine for their spring 2008 'Good News' CD:
www.esopusmag.com To read about the Alcides Moreno, the 'miracle man': click here Formed in 2006, Artificial Workshop's remit is to produce electro-art-pop with symphonic allusions. Because their tracks are painstakingly assembled bit by bit, they do not consider themselves musicians. For Artificial Workshop – who's avowed mission in sound is the construction of pleasure – the pure pop moment will always remain unashamedly manufactured. Hail the Weave - more peaks and troughs, warp and weft. Artificially yours … Artificial Workshopping... And at: LAST. FM |

My Interests |

Music:Member Since: 5/12/2007Band Website: typeandline.com Band Members: Keyboard, Screen, Mike, Mouse, Guitar Influences: Our holy trinity, for sonic prescience and aesthetic purity: Suicide's first LP (the A side) and 'Dream Baby Dream'; Ramones first 3 LPs - for beating on the brat, and "…Oh Oh, I love her so…" - and Kraftwerk … naturellement. And in no particular order, and probably more for inspiration than influence: Brian Wilson - esp. the wilderness years; Post '65 Beach Boys - esp. their punk album 'Love You'; Grizzly Bear's 'Yellow House'; Mouse On Mars - always an inspiration; Talking Heads' first 2 LPs - esp. 'Stay Hungry'; Scritti Politti (the quintessentially 80s 12" mixes); Giorgio Moroder's 70s productions - esp. 'I Feel Love'; Mellow's 'Perfect Colours' - cruelly underrated; The camp symphonic pop genius that is ELO; Fischerspooner doing pop; Harry Nillson before the alcohol kicked in; ACR with Simon Topping; Sagittarius: 'Another Time' with Curt Boettcher's sublimely beautiful androgynous vocal; Belle & Sebastian - consummate pop-song writers - wish we could do that!; David Bowie circa 'Low' and 'Heroes'; AIR (check that tubular bell in 'Venus'!); Chic's machine-like precision playing; The Millenium's 'Begin'; Tortoise; Television first 2 LPs esp. 'See No Evil'; Caribou; Andrew Gold: 'Never Let Her Slip Away'; Phoenix - esp. first 2 albums; Scott Walker; The Raveonettes; High Llamas; Wire as pop band - esp. 'Outdoor Miner' and 'Our Swimmer'; Harpers Bizarre; The Beatles - esp.
