The sound of a pink narcissus
When Coil got lost in the tragedy of the death of Jhonn Balance i was also lost ... Now i have many friends who have been promoting the sound of Matmos and told me i would love them i never really listened too closely. Their new album, «The Rose Has Teeth In The Mouth Of A Beast» changed that ... I have been a huge fan of Drew Daniel`s side project The Soft Pink Truth, but it took these hymns to a large number of queer heroes and villains to make me sit down and listen closely to Matmos.
Matmos has posted an indepth article about «The Rose Has Teeth In The Mouth Of A Beast» on their website.
This is what they have to say about one of my favourite tracks, «Steam and Sequins for Larry Levan».
Larry Levan (nee Lawrence Philpot, 1954 -1992) holds an important place in the history of disco music and gay nightlife as the resident DJ of the Continental Steam Baths and the Paradise Garage. His obsessive attention to the narrative and perceptual possibilities of mixing during his tenure at the Garage has become the stuff of urban legend. His dub-inflected, psychedelic remixes of artists such as Loose Joints, Ednah Holt, and Class Action exemplify a promiscuous, open-ended approach to dance music which is his enduring legacy.
