A Hammer Fell in Space and Somewhere Two Worlds Collided

How can I describe what it was like to see Marshall Schmidt? – Its pretty near impossible. I was pretty blown away with not only his incredible conceptual musical ideas, but also his absolutely charming personality. He is such an entertainer and an absolute joy to be around. His lecture was probably the funnest I have ever attended, since he was not only showing us stuff that he was genuinely excited about, he was genuinely excited to be telling us about it.

I had heard Matmos in the past, but I was happy to be reintroduced and consequently fell in love. I am, in general, a fan of ideas and conceptual works, so I was very impressed with Schmidt’s work. I, much like Bjork, have been telling everyone I know about Matmos for the past two days.
