Review

Spin (8/98, p.144) - 7 (out of 10) - "...Eschewing synths and drum machines, they sample found and created sounds....Despite the Spike Jones schtick, Matmos aren't strictly Goofball City: Their best tracks recall the fuzzed-out grooves of austere experimentalists Autechre or the clanky percussion of Javanese gamelan music..."

Product note

Matmos includes: Drew Daniel, M.C. Schmidt.

Album Description

The duo's second full-length release on their own Vague Terrain imprint is both an improvement and a disappointment. On the plus side, the material is oceans better production-wise, more thoughtfully arranged, and more fully developed. However, Matmos tend to let the schtick of let's-make-tracks-entirely-out-of-weird-noises get the better of their aesthetic judgement, and too much of Quasi-Objects ends up being little more than flat-falling justification for whoopie cushion samples, stretched banjos, and chopped-up voice. Still, more than a few tracks -- "Cloth Mother/Wire Mother"and "Always Three Words" among them -- are both sonically perplexing and engaging. ~ Sean Cooper
