Supermachiner was intended as a side project of the Boston hardcore band Converge, which includes singer/songwriter Jacob Bannon and guitarist Kurt Ballou. Unlike the heavier music of Converge, much of Supermachiner is ambient.

Supermachiner was a project that I began writing for in 1994 with Ryan Parker. When Converge had about six months of down time as we searched for a drummer, we found the time to resurrect that project. We entered Godcity Studios with Kurt Ballou to take on the piles of old four track tapes we had. We each brought something to the table. And in the end we created an interesting record. After the recording was complete, there was little/no time to carry on with the project.
