Abstract electronic duo Matmos will be playing two sets at Tzadik’s New York venue, The Stone, in February. Their most recent album, The Rose Has Teeth in the Mouth of a Beast, was released in 2006 on Matador.
From The Stone’s site:
“Dr. Drew Daniels (laptop, objects) Martin Schmidt (synth, objects)
Matmos are a duo who recently relocated from San Francisco to Baltimore. Their work is all over the place: musique concrete, pop music, rhythmic patterns, free improv, video, sound, actions. For this concert they will present their ‘cover’ of ‘The Backyard,’ the final act of the Robert Ashley tele-opera ‘Perfect Lives,’ and some newer pieces that focus on pure electronic music. Expect some improvisation and some guest shenanigans.”
