What can we say about this song... We recorded it in 1993 and honestly were never really that happy with it. We almost passed up on including it here. Thanks for helping us to realize what a great song we actually wrote. |

Seperate Ways has been one of the most popular downloaded songs in the synthpop vein on mp3.com. Scribe Machine(no relation) out of Portland, OR has delivered a very "in your face" trance remix and we think you'll like it immensely. To hear the melding of synthpop and trance will give you an idea of the future of both genres. |

Written in 1993, Turn My Back On Yesterday was one of our first attempts at establishing a new identity for the band. We were working alot with a slew of analog synths and this was the outcome. Great synth-pop song with a driving synth-line. |

Written in 1994/95 Shametown was a transition for Joy Machine. Lyrically we were always above par over most local acts but writing this song allowed Peter to push his bard skills to a higher level. Great techno-pop and a awesome song to dance to. We hope you like it!! |

This is the last song we recorded as Joy Machine in the Spring of 1996. We were hunting and searching for some way to accomidate our varied tastes in music. The result, a stunning track and the death of Joy Machine. (by the way, Peter's current band borrows their name from this track) |
