A Soundtrack to the DSM-IV

Coming this November, one of the most ambitious projects yet from the Output:Noise collective. 
"For this compelling release, the Output:NOISE Improv Collective assembled at the Gallery at Potential Life Studios in Rochester, NY to record one of their most ambitious conceptual performances: a fully improvised score directly influenced by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV)."

Output Noise Document 15

Available exclusively through subscription at http://outputnoise.com Document 15 showcases several duets ranging from ambient beauty to harsh soundscapes. Another stellar entry in the expanding O:N discography. I am featured on guitar on one of the tracks. Major props go once more to Jeremy and Colleen on putting together another fantastic set of music.

Thud-Lice Before Lies

A new 100% serious harsh noise project (although there are downbeat and meditative moments)-Thud is an outlet for sticking fingers into. Recorded entirely live without overdubs. The Power of Thud compels you-Choose Lice Before Lies.

Matt Henshaw-Letter

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

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
