Soft Machine

A British fusion/progressive rock group named after the book of the same name. They were a central band in the Canterbury Scene of musicians. They started off as a psychedelic band, performing at the UFO club of Pink Floyd fame. Their best album is, without a doubt, Third, which is fusion in the style of Miles Davis's Bitches Brew. It's very trippy.

Some famous members were Robert Wyatt, Mike Ratledge, Hugh Hopper, Kevin Ayers, and Allan Holdsworth.

I was listening to Third by Soft Machine, and it was so awesome that everybody came over and had a good time.

Machine mode

When a male goes to a social gathering (such as a bar or club) and tries to chat up every female at said gathering.

A male in machine mode who gets knocked back by a female, will quickly forget about the female and move on to another female, often the nearest female to the first female and probably the first female's friend.

Friend 1 @ a club: "Alright mate, where you been for the last hour?"

Friend 2 @ the club: "No time to chat, I'm in machine mode tonight, I've already been knocked back by half the girls here... time to move on to the fat chicks. Later."

Swag Machine

One who is so full of swag, that they spontaneously create swag, for the use of less confident individuals.

Don't worry, I'll bring Grant, he's a swag machine.
