Machine Love and the groundbreaking NYC acoustic-rock group Elizabeth Gone were both the brainchildren of vocalist/songwriter/ composer Vincent James. Rick played bass for Vin throughout the mid-90s, and they (along with drummer Maria Baugh) recently had a fantastic musical reunion in San Francisco. Look out for Elizabeth Gone Reunion dates in Austin for Fall 2007.

In the meantime, for the absolute groovingest sounds in electronica and trip-hop, do yourself a favor and check out Vincent's work here!

Machinelove songs have been featured in films and on MTV and VH1, and have been consistent internet radio  top spinners. As an added bonus, it's some of the best make-out music ever written!
