REVIEW: Harmonic 313 - When Machines Exceed Human Intelligence

6.75 out of 10

When this album begins you may feel you're just listening to another "generic" Dubstep album, but give it about 2 or 3 songs and you'll see that Mark Pritchard has no problem genre hopping, giving "When Machines Exceed Human Intelligence" a real interesting flare/cut above most electronic albums today. Harmonic 313 takes all of the fun parts of popular electronic genres and mixes them all quite nicely.

"World Problems" has to be my favorite track on this album imagine Apehx Twin's "Window Licker" mixed by Kraftwerk...yeah it's that awesome. Overall this is a pretty tight electronic album, I like the tracks that are "less Dubstep-y" more though. If you're a fan of Dubstep music, Vex'd, Aphex Twin, Warp Records, Kraftwerk, Boards Of Canada, Isolee, Hip Hop, or Dabrye you should have no problems bobbing your head to this album.
