The former drummer of Soft Machine and the author of "Rock Bottom" makes his return to the music scene by releasing a double compilation album with Domino. Divided into two volumes, it is the ideal introduction for both newcomers and fans of the creator of "Rock Bottom." The first volume, titled "Ex Machina" and produced with his biographer Marcus O'Dair, serves as a best of as it brings together tracks from the giant's work. The second disc, "Benign Dictatorship," compiles Wyatt's collaborations, rarities, and unreleased tracks.
