"Pleasure Point" by The Mattson 2

[unclaimed-baggage-music]

Band: The Mattson 2 Album: Feeling Hands (2010) Track: “Man From Anamnesis” Genre: Experimental / Surf Jazz For Fans of: Real Estate-like experimental jazz rock... ? yes! or Toro y Moi This duo is from Southern California, and somehow their native land flavors their sound with an impressively lush surf quality yet their jazz and experimental elements have provided them with a following in Japan apparently? I could see it. And I can definitely say, after experience Feeling Hands for the first time this afternoon on a friend’s turntable, was a complete treat. Besides, you couldn’t pigeonhole this band to just plain “surf rock” anyway because after all, they were nominated for best jazz band in San Diego by City Beat Magazine. ... [The Mattson 2 create] new experiments in overdubbing, instrumentation and layering aesthetics. It’s a dynamic journey focusing on orchestration and composition, bringing together elements of jazz, new wave, punk and ’60s surf rock. The surf aspect doesn’t drown its elements of noise and jazz too. For the more noisy side of them, check out track “Pleasure Point” ;) when it gets to the high point. “Man From Anamnesis” is my absolute favorite right now though. There’s the triumpate sense of anticipation, and rising action, and sprinkled with plenty of heartthrob guitar-breakdowns, it’s got me on the floor right now. Goodbye.
