An experienced cellist and classical musical producer with years
of music studies behind him, Matthew Peters, the man behind Mad
e.p., doesn’t write music for the close minded. It is
not enough for him that he produced the Chicago Symphonic Orchestra
radioshow, for theatre plays in New York City, or that his cello
lines were used by Venetian
Snares and Leafcutter
John. After years of writing music and collaborating with vocalists
and musicians, the time has come for Mad
e.p. to present his art as it should be experienced. Following
a split CD with Abstract Polygon on Tribal
Treble, a 7” on Budget
Cuts Music, and remarked concerts in NYC, Mad
e.p.. joins the Ad Noiseam team with the “When I’m
6” 12”, to be followed in late 2004 by the “Eating
Movies” full length CD.
“When I’m 6” is Mad
e.p.’s first solo release, based on a track written several
years ago but which hasn’t aged at all. Presented alongside
remixes by long time collaborators Jason
Forrest (a.k.a. Donna Summer),
End
and Chaonaut,
by Ad Noiseam label mate Mothboy
or enriched with the vocals by Equivalant, this track is a delicate
nostalgic ode, and still a surprisingly gritty, unsettling and complexly
interwoven work.
Break beats, electronica, abstract hip hop, IDM, soundscapes, call
it as you like, Mad
e.p. cooks without a recipe. Juggling in an insolent way with
instruments, genres and referrences, Mad
e.p. navigates in an area which he is himself shaping, somewhere
between electronic wizardry, soulful hip hop, groove, breaks, jazz
a healthy dose of gritty noise. Mind you, this all fits well with
Jason Forrest’s
spliced disco, End’s
joyful mashed up beats, Mothboy
rumbling basses and Chaonaut's
whispering glitches.
Ad Noiseam is very proud to present here Mad
e.p.’s first release (and how could one have said no to
such a demo?). With such a display of talent, Mad
e.p. is to leave a mark wherever his music threads, and “When
I’m 6” might very well become the long time classic
that set the first stone.
