Machete

About Machete

Contains a sample of "Apache" by the Incredible Bongo Band. This is uncredited in the album liner notes. "It was the only song on the record that was really fun to play live. "Machete" was the only techno song. It's such a weird song. To me it reminds of that late-'80s EBM. When I was recording it, I was trying to be like Meat Beat Manifesto, Frontline Assembly, Skinny Puppy. That song was my direct influence from listening to too much Front 242." - Moby (rollingstone.com) .
