"It’s easy to gather here that not only would Biomechanoid surely have been the perfect soundtrack for any science-fiction film that came out around the same time as the album, but also stands the test of time today, and would be just as useful to outer space films that require more mood than flash... there's lots to parse, discuss, and enjoy. Those are my favorite kinds of albums."
- Ryan Masteller, Critical Masses
Former Brainticket frontman Joel Vandroogenbroeck founded his record label Colorsound Library in 1980, after leaving his Krautrock group behind and spending time in Bali learning gamelan. He reemerged from his sojourn in the East as a solo artist, releasing Biomechanoïd, a dark, foreboding and unsettling album bridging the gap between his love of world instruments and his mastery of liquified synth loops.
