Man Made Object is the third album by jazz piano trio GoGo Penguin. It's their first of a three album deal with the jazz label Blue Note[3][4]. About the name of their third album, the pianist Chris Illingworth explain that the title is partly inspired by his fascination with ideas of robotics, transhumanism and human augmentation[3]
Critical reception
About Man Made Object, John Fordham says in The Guardian that "It still feels like clubbing music, and perhaps best heard live, but plenty of house and techno fans might be surprised by how good at partying three closet-jazzers can be."[6]
Marcus J. Moore says in Pitchfork that "Man Made Object is tailor-made for laid-back enjoyment, to be consumed at a moderate volume without much fuss."[7]
