Night Machine are a solo project from Tennessee that plays an 80's and horror inspired form of synthwave and this is a review of his self released 2018 album "Themes Of The Dead".
Ambient style synths which also use a variety of many different sounding keys start off the album while also capturing the atmosphere of a horror movie soundtrack along with soem avant garde elements being utilized at times as well as some tracks also adding in programmed beats.
All of the tracks sound different from each other while all of the songs are instrumentals along with the music being very heavily rooted in the 80's era of horror films as well as the music bringing in a more update approach by adding in some elements of extreme metal without the use of traditional instruments and as the album progresses a small amount of programmed blast beats can also be heard.
Night Machine plays a musical style that mixes 80's era synthwave and horror soundtrack music along with some touches of extreme metal to create a sound of his own while keeping everything instrumental and the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion Night Machine are a very great sounding horror inspired synthwave solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Black magic (The Witch)" "Countess (The Vampire)" "Chapel District (The Ripper)" and "Old Scrath (The Devil)". 8 out of 10.
