After a 7 year hiatus, Jay Kay emerges with this heavily cyber-electronic, post-apocalyptic single.
The band is set to release an LP, due out via Virgin EMI on March 31.
The video, directed from the talented Charlie Lightening, is as every bit as electric as the funk fuelled tune.
According to a statement from the band posted by Pitchfork;
"The inspiration for Automaton is in recognition of the rise of artificial intelligence and technology in our world today and how we as humans are beginning to forget the more pleasant, simple and eloquent things in life and in our environment including our relationship with one another as human beings."
We just can't seem to get enough of Jay Kay's revitalised styling of his iconic headwear. The future is yours Jamiroquai. #groovybaby
