Machina

Boy Harsher's song 'Machina' delves into the alienation and emotional detachment that can arise in a technologically driven world. The repeated phrases 'Machina electrónico' and 'Artificial sensación frío' highlight the cold, mechanical nature of modern interactions. The use of the word 'machina' (machine) paired with 'electrónico' (electronic) suggests a world where human connections are mediated by technology, leading to a sense of artificiality and emotional coldness.

The lyrics 'I can't spend the night with you,' 'I can't stay to dance with you,' and 'I can't feel your heart beat too' emphasize the barriers that technology can create between people. These lines suggest a longing for genuine human connection that is thwarted by the impersonal nature of electronic communication. The repetition of 'I can't' underscores the frustration and helplessness felt in trying to bridge the gap between human warmth and technological coldness.

Boy Harsher, known for their darkwave and synth-pop style, often explores themes of isolation, desire, and the impact of technology on human relationships. 'Machina' is a poignant reflection on how the digital age can lead to a sense of disconnection, even as it promises to bring people closer together. The song's minimalist lyrics and repetitive structure mirror the monotonous and unfeeling nature of the machines it describes, creating a haunting and thought-provoking listening experience.
