The God From The Machine Songfacts explains this song was inspired by a plot device used in Greek plays, called deus ex machina, in which a seemingly unsolvable problem is suddenly solved by a contrived and unexpected intervention. In the case of this track, it's Santigold stepping into her own life to solve her own problems. Read more on Last.fm.

Santigold (born Santi White on September 25, 1976) is a musician, songwriter and producer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA who formerly went under the stage name Santogold. She is perhaps best known for the song L.E.S. Artistes which became a hit in the UK and on American alternative radio. In February 2009, she officially changed her stage name to Santigold as a result of infomercial jeweller Santo Gold threatening legal action against White and her label Downtown Records. White was lead singer of the Philadelphia-based punk rock band Stiffed, but while in the band, she was offered a solo contract. Working with fellow Stiffed member John Hill as co-producer, she recorded her debut album, Santogold, which was released in April 2008. Upon the change of her stage name, her label Downtown Records issued this press release: "Change the graffiti on the bathroom wall, get your tattoo fixed, get your T-shirt airbrushed and change the name on your year-end list: Santogold is now Santigold. She's not telling you why, that's just how it is." Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
