Submit ReviewOnly the Baltimore-based electronic duo Matmos (M.C. Schmidt and Drew Daniel) might be able to make an entire record from the sounds of a washing machine, or for their latest - only from plastic. They've sampled the percussive qualities of a police riot shield (purchased on Ebay from the Albuquerque police department), made patterns, saved, repeated, and voila! Electronic music that is fun to be unsettled to. There’s a squeaky “crying pill” made of plastic, a PVC pipe as percussion and pseudo digeridoo, along with breaking vinyl records, attaching a contact microphone and quickly making a kalimba-like instrument. There is so much “audio gold”, as the duo terms it, on their latest record, Plastic Anniversary, and they’ll perform some of these pieces in-studio. – Caryn Havlik
