Hi, thanks for checking my site out. No new music to report at this time, but a reminder to click on Older Posts to see previous releases. Most of these are free to listen to or download, and if you want a physical copy (which typically comes with special packaging) it's name your own price, $3 puts a few cents in my pocket. Contact me at thebizzle76 .a.t. yah-oo dot com for any info, put Get Out of Jail Free in the subject so you don't get deposited in the spam cave. Thanks for listening and your comments are always welcome!

Matt Henshaw-Letter

2011-02-21T10:00:00.000-08:00

New piece, recorded last evening, about 25 minutes of completely improvised, live guitar playing. I am putting this out to the larger world "noise" community as well as local friends to cut up, re-mix, re-contextualize as they see fit. Perhaps this will give me some new ideas as well. All I ask is to give me credit and access to the track(s) you come up with.
Thanks as always for listening.

Matthew Henshaw-Vicious Garden

2011-02-13T15:19:00.000-08:00

New solo release. After several months of recording, I took the time to put together this release. It is a big one-well over an hour and a half, touching on a variety of styles. I'm quite happy with the results, and hope you will be too. This is available for download from http://www.archive.org/details/MatthewHenshaw-viciousGarden or you can play it from that website as well. For some samples from the album, check out http://soundcloud.com/getoutofjailfree/vicious-garden-excerpt or http://soundcloud.com/getoutofjailfree/full-race-excerpt

Urknee and Birdtone Russell-Smorg Is Bored

2010-08-27T06:25:00.000-07:00

Two of my favorite people to collaborate with have released a whopping 2CD live document of 2009 performances. I join them on several tracks, including the controversial "Ballad of Hollis Mouse". Rick does most of the writing, and his poetry is abstract and lovely. Mike plays various instruments and is a sympathetic improviser. To procure your copy, get in touch with Mike at jonmacrae2002 .a.t. ya-hooooo fullstop com, I am not sure how much he is charging, but given the quality and quantity of performances it is worth checking out.

Bolide & NPV Octet - Split CDr

2010-08-20T06:56:00.000-07:00

From UK label Chocolate Monk comes a split with NPV-if memory serves me correctly this is from the Halloween show last year. I played very noisy guitar and bass, and it might be a little buried in the mix. Hear a sample at their website http://chocolatemonk.co.uk/available.htm where you can also purchase a copy for about 10 bucks.

CRKD

2010-07-26T20:06:00.000-07:00

An hour of new music.The first piece is me trying to move slow and create a meditative bed of sound. The second piece is chaotic, but I think also has meditative value of its own. Both use a couple of new devices that I recently acquired. I hope you find them an interesting listen-available free to download from http://www.archive.org/details/MattHenshaw-crkd

STRNG

2010-04-30T06:34:00.000-07:00

New music: STRNG is a new conceptual project where the performer is limited to creating sound from one string, be it on a guitar or stretched in a physical space. I was quite pleased with how this ended up, and hopefully I can turn it into a short live set, possibly with other STRNG players. Available for free download at http://www.archive.org/details/STRNG
