The Bay Area based post-electro artist, Matrixxman is gearing up to release his debut album entitled Homesick on July 10th. Matrixxman’s style of EDM doesn’t really play by the rules. Its choppily smooth computerized music embodies creative sonic inconsistencies (not the beats but in regards to a fixed genre specific style) that makes his music’s style intriguing and attractive.
Before digging into the steely, handcrafted technoisms of Homesick, you need to know a few things about Charles Duff, the Bay Area artist behind Matrixxman… He’s also a voracious information junkie, soaking up government conspiracies and contemporary science-fiction like a proper X-Files fanatic. These cultural reference points are as integral to the background of Homesick as Detroit, Chicago, and Berlin’s musical legacies. Across the record’s versatile track list, Matrixxman uses the language of machines and dance floors like a hungry pulp novelist, weaving together his divergent narratives and characters under one sprawling dystopian sky.
Check out the lead single from his upcoming album due out on Ghostly.
