Birmingham Electronic Artist, Machine Boy, on the Radar at BBC Radio 1

(PRWEB) October 17, 2007 -- Unsigned Electronic UK artist Machine Boy has released the single 'Action Figures' from his new album 'Building a Better Boy' which is available now on iTunes.

Machine Boy was a favourite of the late, great John Peel. He is now supported by those who come in the wake of Peel - DJ's such as Radio 1 Huw Stephens are airing the track on Radio 1 Introducing - On the Radar. The quirky and radio friendly 'Action Figures' track makes a stance against the state of the human condition. Machine Boy describes the single release as "a light-hearted swipe at humanity."

Dean Cook from Birmingham is behind the Machine Boy project. This recent upswing of plays has increased his profile and he's recently been featured on a Gill Mill's "Best of MySpace" iCast podcast.

Dean's influences for Machine Boy' include Kraftwerk and Jean Michel Jarre. He brings his knowledge of drumming into his compositions and focuses on pushing boundaries, giving the tracks an edgy, modern feel.

'Building a Better Boy' follows the release of the 'Depression' EP, which attracted the attention of MTV's Real World who selected the track "Sleepless' to feature in a 'Real World episode in 2005.
