Sky Machine is a multimedia project from Perth that blends together science fiction, digital art, and jazz fusion. They fuse elements of rock, funk, jazz and metal music with the purpose of taking the audience on a journey that explores a science fiction world populated by superhuman secret agents, artificially intelligent spaceships, covert organisations and a looming threat by an otherworldly power.
Over the course of 2020 – 2021, Sky Machine have been releasing parts of their first body of work entitled, The Prologue Series. Each part adds to the lore of Sky Machine and focuses on building a cohesive science fiction world. The finale of the series, “The Ancient Empire”, has been released recently. It explores the culture of highly advanced aliens from Messier 105, known as The Andraenians. The music for this part of the series is purposely heavy and ominous to suit the power of the Andraenians.
Join them tonight and experience jazz fusion like you’ve heard before. Supporting them will be Kamino and The Mikayla Boonstra Duo.
