Man Made Object is the third album by jazz piano trio GoGo Penguin. It is their first of a three-album deal with the jazz label Blue Note.[3][4] Chris Illingworth, the band's pianist, has explained that the title of the album is partly inspired by his fascination with ideas of robotics, transhumanism and human augmentation.[3]

Critical reception

In his review, John Fordham said in The Guardian that "It still feels like clubbing music, but plenty of house and techno fans might be surprised by how good at partying three closet-jazzers can be."[6] Marcus J. Moore said in Pitchfork that "Man Made Object is tailor-made for laid-back enjoyment, to be consumed at a moderate volume without much fuss."[7]

The album charted at number 72 on the UK Albums Chart in February 2016.[8]
