RELEASE DATE 2022-01-14
LABEL Meanwhile
CATALOG MW025

After an incredible year from which Meanwhile continued to release a panoply of stellar music, GMJ and Matter's imprint begins 2022 in scintillating fashion. Now, with a quarter century of releases under its belt, Matter returns to the label with his second original EP in the shape of the 3-track, "Banksia".

After an incredible 2021, culminating with the November release of his debut "Starchild" album on Meanwhile Horizons, numerous collaborations with production partner in crime, GMJ, and over 1 million Spotify streams, the Melbourne based DJ and producer begins the year with a musical vignette of the highest quality.

Opening proceedings, the title track is a glorious piece of trademark progressive house from the Matter production studio. As mesmerising as it is powerful, an immaculately syncopated percussive and melodic groove combine in joyous harmony as a repeated motif waxes and wanes with filtered ease, backed by thumping beat and rumbling bassline. Huge white-noise swells herald new sonic phases as "Banksia" builds to a powerful crescendo post-breakdown in a spine-tingling second half.

Continuing the deep rolling groove of its predecessor, a seismic kick and head-shaking bass pattern form the foundations for "Burnout". A trademark swathe of filtered synth motifs soon come to the fore amongst waves of gently pulsing white-noise risers, before an Underworld-esque breakdown of bassline prowess and hands-in-the-air synths explode into a third movement. Containing all the characteristics for a club-friendly stormer, "Burnout" is sure to fill festival floors over the antipodean summer.

The third track sees "Magic Rooms" complete the triptych with its shimmering arp and swung hi-hats. Working together in perfect synchronicity, a bassline sequence adds subtle urgency and low-end power before an evolving suite of synth elements combines in a magical symphony of sound that rises and falls in counterpoint glory. A characteristic bevy of reverb-soaked white-noise effects add to the sonic dynamism as the track opens up post-breakdown into a stunning arrangement of production know-how and sonic mastery.

A career that continues to blossom with each successive release, "Banksia" finds Matter coming into bloom once again with an iridescent pattern of musical verve.

============= About Visionquest ============= 
I'm a scientist at heart, but music is the closest to thing to magic that I've found. It's been said a million times before but in the flow state you really do feel like a conduit through which the inspiration and ideas pass, rather than the source. One sound leads to the next, like there's no other choice. Like the unfurling of a fractal. My purpose is to become good enough at the craft that I hear what arises out of the ether and use the right brushes and palette as I try to capture it. 

Visionquest is a voyage through sound with no known destination. I'll try to get out of the way and let whatever is meant to happen just happen. I'm releasing one each month (two episodes to start things in motion today). I've no idea where this is going but I wanted to take everyone along for the ride. 

Come with us on a journey...
