Audience, he did that all in his own studio. The drums and everything...
That dude is crazy.


Whats really cool about the dude is his daring inventiveness for music. For example one album he used all toy instruments. He wanted to prove to people you can make a record with anything and it sounded crazy. He made What a fool believes just with this driving bouncing beat. It was so funky how he did it.



You should get Breakfast for Girls it will make you a self fan in one second
Thats the one that shows you Matt is a genius and he deserves every compliment he gets.


you can download like 3 out of print albums
and many live shows here.

The use of "toy instruments" sounds very Zappa-esque.
His idea that you can make music using basically anything is very progressive in this day and age of having to have the latest, greatest gear.

I just listened to "Brooklyn" (being that's my home town).

I'm taking a train to Brooklyn

"M.C. Something". Classic.

Great pop sensibilities.
