Machine + Soul is the eleventh solo studio album by the English musician Gary Numan, released in 1992.

Numan's two previous studio albums, 1988's Metal Rhythm and 1991's Outland, had been released through IRS Records.

Like Outland, Machine + Soul features movie vocal samples (for example, a line from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory can be heard at the beginning of the album).

However, Numan strove for a much more commercial sound with Machine + Soul, influenced by the work of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis as well as by Prince.

So, at a time when I was experiencing extreme lows in my career and private life, the last thing I felt like making was a shiny, polished pop record.

I put out a really shit album in 1992 called Machine + Soul which I’ll regret for the rest of my life.

With Sacrifice, Numan dispensed with the dance rhythms and female backing vocals, in favour of a back-to-basics approach, more introspective lyrics, and a darker musical sound.

Three songs from Machine + Soul (the title track, "Emotion" and "U Got the Look") were included on the 1996 remix album, Techno Army featuring Gary Numan.
