Artist description
This music buzzes, wiggles, splatters and spins. It emits dazzling showers of high-voltage sparks over a blanket of multi-colored psychoactive gasses that obscure glistening icy pools. At once both familiar and alien, Matt has come up with the perfect mixture of trance, space, electronic and world musics in a package that's all his own. |

Artist History
For a musician who lurked in the shadows and largely made music only for himself for decades, Matt Seniff has been unusually prolific in the public arena since he helped pave the way for the re-birth of Home Recordings in 1998. In less than two years, he's contributed to the renovation of HR's main studio and built a secondary studio for the "audio commune". He helped resurrect the legendary HR band The Sediments, after which he founded both The Chronomatics and W.T. Fits with his Sediments partner Pink Bob. On top of all of that, he has started to compile the body of impressive, largely computer-based solo work you hear represented here. Matt is currently wrapping up the debut W.T. Fits CD and has been working with The Sediments on their stage debut in late May, 2000... |
