MAD EP

8

Ever since his first contact with Ad Noiseam and the release of his debut album “Eating Movies” (adn44) in 2004, Matthew Peters expressed his wish to release his long-running, massive trilogy. “The Madlands”, a gathering of three mini-albums forming a very coherent entity, finally sees the light of the day in the form of a triple package showcasing Mad EP's most delicate and soundtrack-oriented work to date. If there is a story behind every song, then there is an entire travelogue that could accompany "The Madlands". Composed over seven years, while living in ten different apartments in five cities, then finalized in Brooklyn for a Berlin-based label, this deeply personal work reflects the life of Mad EP, a nomadic musician trying to find his way home. Sometimes literal and programmatic, other times artistically abstracted into metaphors, the music of "The Madlands" tells a series of seemingly unrelated tales interwoven into a single, cohesive one. Combining his oldest tracks with his most current (including his first electronic track ever written as well as tracks written shortly before handing in the whole trilogy), this non-linear collection roams deeper into the mad psyche and gives even more attention to his instrumental background. Featuring tracks written with long-time collaborators Mathhead, Chaonaut and David Young, as well as together with Matthew Peter's improv-jazz formation (The Manhattan Gimp Project), “The Madlands” appears as one of the most meditative, laid back and somewhat emotion-ridden work of Mad EP so far; the voices (essential on the previous albums "Eating Movies" and "Not Afraid Of Spiders") have been silenced, the melodies and soundscapes have taken the beat's preponderance. Mad EP might invite us to a journey through Mad lands, but you're certain he will not let your hand go.

n.y., always a melting pot of cultures and styles. the city that doesn't sleep - and if you make it there you'll etc.-etc.. important for the u.s. subculture for decades (if you don't know 'no new york' yet, you should look out...). besides the academic 'knitting factory' scene, there have always been artists who are and will keep 'underground'. what that means in this case: fresh, pry and rowdy! and that's what this compilation series should be - a little overview of what's happening in this post-9/11 moloch of a city that is still a nutrient solution for something new! mad ep's 'acid jig' is g.g.g. volume 1's perfect opener, keeping the roughness of the sixties and transforming it into the 21st century - featuring a little homage to a young vocalist from texas. this is the only track which has been already released (on mad ep's phantastic 'not afraid of spiders' cd). bit shifter is one of the big names in the gameboy scene, having performed regularly in new york, and touring literally around the whole world. he is equally at home alongside fellow chiptune musicians as well as breakcore-cult-acts such as drop the lime and enduser. 'surge' is a syncopated, straight track making you move and twitch. go for it! twenty knives is an extremely talented youngster (he's only 21), who has already toured japan with enduser and had a split-7'' with joseph nothing. 'moloko velocet' will let your ears bleed - ultra-fast, hard as fuck and kicking your poor ass! turn the record over and continue with dnb ruffneck, submerged. 'gi choke' is a drum-and bass/breakbeat-mix with a killer-subbass and heavy-hitting, live-recorded drums. following the mayhem is the slower 'polychrome' by aerostatic, its pounding 16th-drums keeping the spacy synths and infectious grooves from leaving earth. math head sets the furious finale with 'toxic special', attacking mind and body with a merciless crescendo of beats, breaks, speed and volume. you want more? you'll get more - promised! this is only the beginning....
