Matmos Music
Artist Overview
San Francisco-based electronica duo Matmos (aka M.C. Schmidt and Drew Daniel) make clever, cerebral, beat-driven sound collages using a variety of found sounds, ranging from surgical equipment and amplified human body parts to broken musical instruments and the dusty grooves of old folk recordings. The result is both challenging and highly intriguing. Matmos are also known for being the on-stage beatmakers for experimental pop singer Bjork. They released an album dedicated to and inspired by a number of their heroes--musical and otherwise--in 2006 entitled THE ROSE HAS TEETH IN THE MOUTH OF THE BEAST.
