“The Tyranny of Matter” by Scribe Machine, from their 2004 album Isolation Loop.
This is an artist I first heard about in the heyday of MP3.com, circa 1999 or 2000. The first song of theirs I remember hearing was “Monolith - Daisy in Space Dub” — a slow techno jam with samples from 2001, which naturally endeared me to them immediately.
“The Tyranny of Matter”, along with a few other songs of that era (remixed or reconstituted) are on Isolation Loop — original title, I believe, “The Tyranny of Matter-Science”. And it looks as if they’ve had a couple of albums out in the interim, so I’d highly recommend giving them a listen if you’re of the techno persuasion.
