"My Machines" featuring British electronic composer and singer Gary Numan is taken off Battles' recent album Glass Drop. Produced by The Studio in collaboration with Warp Records, we paired Battles with directoral duo Daniels, who are known for dreaming up some wild music videos for bands like Chromeo and Manchester Orchestra. The video was shot in a semi-deserted mall where the band appear to make impressive (and acrobatic) use of the escalator.
You can watch a video documenting the making of the "My Machines" music video at the Creators Project website, click here to check it out.
