The Marriage Of True Minds Matmos SKU: THRILL316LP Barcode: 790377031614 17.00 £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Thrill Jockey Released Date: 15th February 2013 Buying Format: 2LP Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Expanding upon the ambitious premise of their recently released ‘The Ganzfeld EP’, Baltimore-based electronic duo Matmos (Drew Daniel and MC Schmidt) are now releasing their first new full-length album in five years: ‘The Marriage Of True Minds’. Matmos are known for making toe-tapping rhythmic pop out of odd and unusual sound sources. They have always worn genre loosely, but it’s safe to say that this is the first electronic album to start with tap dancing and end with doom metal. Comprising stomping techno, eerie synth jams, musique concrete, Latin rhythms, and Ethiopian music, at once at home in the academy, the art gallery, the nightclub and the noise warehouse, the dizzyingly diverse assemblage which is ‘The Marriage Of True Minds’ is driven by a tightly unified conceptual agenda: telepathy. Matmos are one of the most prominent experimental electronic artists of the last decade, their seven albums have been some of the most significant and acclaimed in the genre, and their high profile collaborations and shows with artists like Bjork and Kronos Quartet have given them definite exposure outside of the world of heady electronic music. On ‘The Marriage Of True Minds’, guest musicians including Dan Deacon, Dominique Leone, DJ Dog Dick, Leslie Weiner and Holger Hiller (Palais Schaumberg), Jason Willett (Half Japanese), Angel Deradoorian, Jenn Wasner (Wye Oak) and more all go under the digital editing knife as they are chopped into tight, surprisingly listenable songs which, for the first time in Matmos’ work, prominently feature vocalists and voices. 2LP version in gatefold jacket with artworked inner sleeves and free download coupon. Designed by Rex Ray, the album’s packaging presents in the liner notes the complete texts of the psychic transcripts which generated each individual song, along with photographs that document the Ganzfeld sessions. The vinyl version of the release also contains a bonus locked groove of white noise so that the home listener can put on the eye-coverings and headphones which accompanied the deluxe edition of ‘The Ganzfeld EP’ and complete the re-enactment of the experimental conditions that created the songs. The result is an artifact which is an art object, a scientific report, a practical joke and a daring pop record. “Matmos have always heard symphonies in life’s smallest details, sampling things like thawing streams and liposuction vacuums and building busy pop tapestries out of them” – Pitchfork “It’s a rare glimpse into their delightfully strange minds and a fantastic collection of aural creations that otherwise we certainly never would have heard” – Ad Hoc Artist Matmos Genre Rock And Pop Label Thrill Jockey Buying Options 2LP Includes Download Code Format 2LP , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Track Listings You Very Large Green Triangles Mental Radio Ross Transcript Teen Paranormal Romance Tunnel In Search of A Lost Faculty Aetheric Vehicle E.S.P.
