Ubiquity Machine develops the 90s indie/ pop rock culture with modern themes and sonic ideas. The duo are storytellers, immersing the listener in the characters of their stories, their paths, dilemmas, contemplations, emotions, and experiences. And it’s all in the song, the easy grace of their instrumentals, vocal simplicity and candid performances. Their latest release is ‘Betty & Steve’, a track that is a fluid confluence of vintage country folk, 90s indie, and 00s pop rock. There’s a distinct small town charm to the way the story is told, of a couple and the complexities that arise in their life as they grow and age.

The instrumental backdrop, seemingly simple, combines straight shooting guitar acoustics with resonant basslines, fuzzy riffs, calling trumpets, and a mellow beat. The harmonies encircle the composition, progressively driving it to its climax. Among all these layers of sound, you find yourself sinking into the rustic country framework set by the duo, reflecting on the impact that human relationships have on a person’s life. Despite its upbeat tone, there’s an enjoyable dimension of melancholy situated right underneath the surface. And once you tap into its contemplative ethos, you can’t get enough. Listen Now!

The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
