A Glitchy Romance: Machine Girl's "Come On Baby, Scrape My Data"

Machine Girl is the frenetic, genre-bending project of New York-based musician Matt Stephenson. Known for a blistering, high-octane sound that smashes together breakcore, jungle, digital hardcore, and punk, Machine Girl creates a chaotic and visceral auditory experience. Their music often explores themes of technology, identity, and modern life through a distorted, hyper-digital lens.

The song "Come On Baby, Scrape My Data" is a track from the album U-Void Synthesizer. The song is a chaotic and almost unhinged dance track that captures the raw, unfiltered energy of a Machine Girl live set. As with much of their work, the song's title is both a provocative and a highly literal statement. It’s an abrasive, loud, and intense track that turns the creepy, voyeuristic nature of data scraping into a bizarre, almost romantic, come-on. The song is a commentary on the erosion of privacy and the casual, almost seductive way technology consumes our personal information. It presents this unsettling reality through a danceable, glitch-filled, and utterly cathartic sonic explosion.
