Following last year’s formidable 4#TRAX EP- a love letter to the TRAX community that helped shape a young Travis Stewart into the phenomenal producer we know today- Machinedrum returns with his first studio album since 2020, 3FOR82. 3FOR82 features an incredible cast of collaborators including the likes of Tinashe, Tanerélle, Duckwrth, Mick Jenkins, AKTHESAVIOR, KUČKA, deem spencer, Jesse Boykins III, Deniro Farrar & Topaz Jones. A reference to Stewart’s birth date, the album will be announced on his birthday this year (4th March). The record builds on the themes of reflection, this time a letter to his teenage self as he set out making music. The album deftly switches across hip hop, soul, UKG, liquid drum and bass, footwork, R&B, maximalist electronica and abstract jazz beats. Machinedrum has previously been featured in Billboard, Mixmag, Dazed, VICE, Time Out, Stereogum, The Quietus, Drowned in Sound, Narc Magazine, Clash, Earmilk and more. Travis has also contributed to guest mixes for major stations around the world including NPR, BBC Radio 1 (including an Essential Mix in 2013), BBC 1Xtra and KEXP, plus local tastemaker stations. Machinedrum is also one half of JETS (Innovative Leisure) with Jimmy Edgar, one half of Sepalcure (Hot Flush) with Praveen and one half of Dream Continuum with Om Unit. His solo work has garnered over 80 million streams worldwide. He has additionally collaborated with the likes of DJ Rashad, DJ Spinn, D∆WN, Lone, Theophilus London, Azealia Banks, Roots Manuva, Jacques Greene and more.
