More Info "US sound artist Matt Shoemaker has surely a voice of his own in the experimental music scene... Blending natural sounds (field recordings) with others sourced from various electronic apparatus (both analog & digital) or acoustic instruments, Matt drags out new sense from this friction... Barely relying on models generated by his predecessors or current peers, he has chosen instinctive introspection & autarkic audio-scripts pushing forward their own world of rich abstraction... Most of all, his sonic refined amalgams recontextualize and question the perceptual approach of our surroundings, processing by subdued psychogeographic strokes & allusions... After acclaimed works for Trente Oiseaux, Helen Scarsdale Agency, Oblast, & Ferns, commissioned works for radio, art galleries, and various pieces for compilations, he shaped another aural wonder for MS... Encircled, Swayed by Nature's babbles, a spectrum of infinite variations, we seem abruptedly to feel for real, beaming with primal energy, intensely rooted in the Now... - Then, collapsing within, levels below, searching for new foundations & emergences, all motion interiorized, we yield hidden recesses... - From the humming of a fly to the roaring of metal, the shortcut is gripping, a sea of contrasts... like finding an impossible island... "The Sunken Plethora Consumes All" is a quest for identity through gaining more focus... a personal exegesis... MS53 cd-r ltd to 120 copies and numbered sleeve design and artwork by Daniel Crokaert - source material + insert photo : Matt Shoemaker" [label info] www.mysterysea.net
