Etienne Machine presents Every Little Dream — a handcrafted EP that goes back to basics.
In 2024, the band retreated to a quiet corner of France, somewhere between the woods, the gear, and fresh ideas. Far from the buzz of traditional studios and equipped only with their own instruments, Etienne Machine set out to reconnect with raw, unfiltered creation. The result is a homegrown EP, shaped like a sonic diary — where each track bears the mark of that week-long musical retreat, blending brand new compositions with reimagined pieces first born during the A Playground for the Crowd era.
Every Little Dream favors intuition without sacrificing precision. In this more direct approach, analog textures meet digital sparks, structures evolve day by day, and each track finds its own shape and voice. Nothing was left to chance. Beneath the apparent simplicity lies a deep creative process, driven by the desire to stay true to the original impulse — without ever compromising on clarity.
Mixed and mastered by Alexis Sudan, the final touch brings out the warmth and detail of the recordings without sanding down their edges. You can still hear the walls of the chalet, the doubts turned into choices, and the collective energy of a band focused not on shining, but on sharing something real.
Every Little Dream is a breath of fresh air. A step to the side. A small, carefully crafted dream — the kind you listen to like flipping through a forgotten sketchbook, smiling, and catching glimpses of yourself in the details.
We hope you find a part of yourself in it, just like we did.
