Limited to 500 copies.Emerging out of Australia’s barely-known dance-floor techno scene, Matthew Thomas has produced a series of well-conceived, thoughtful electronic releases. Although his „Mind Virus“ and „Architecture“ CDs did not cut the ties to the world of techno completely, they did feature a more sedate take on the genre, on a level with the minimal soundscapes of Mika Vainio, and perhaps especially, the delicate dub-techno of Germany’s Raster Music label. Matthew’s most recent full length, the „Modulations“ CD on renowned Australian experimental label Dorobo, home of Alan Lamb and Shinjuku Thief, jettisons the dance-floor connection entirely, for a deep and frightening excursion through an alien world of mangled detuned radio sounds, without beats or melodies.
