==Background==
After promoting the acoustic version of her second studio album, ''Siberia'', in 2013, Lights returned to the studio to work on new material. On ''Little Machines'', Lights was inspired by bold female artists including Björk, Kate Bush, and Patti Smith, while also wanting to remain accessible. Critics have noted the more lighthearted nature of lead single "Up We Go" in comparison to the grittier, more experimental dubstep-pop of ''Siberia'', which is indicative of the sonic direction of the album as a whole.
In an interview with ''Billboard'', Lights explained that while she felt like taking risks on ''Siberia'', ''Little Machines'' was more about creating great "incredible songs that everyone can sing along to and lyrically latch onto" and then putting them together as an album.〔 Working with producer Drew Pearson and Mark "Spike" Stent, Lights captured a "timeless electronic sound" and found herself lyrically gravitating towards themes of nostalgia and naivety.〔 Lights has described the album as "a triumph after a hard dry spell" and "a complete journey, from front to back," noting that during the recording process she found herself "() to poetry, art and female songwriting legends .. and just enjoying () again."〔
