...guise and the debut release on Canada's Area709 Recordings. For this release, Matte has applied his holistic understanding of all things
musical to fuse two of his spheres of musical influence - psy and progressive - with the result every bit as fresh and genre-defining here and now as his
previous release, The Immaculate Perception (released on Australia's Sundance Records under the name Nystagmus to critical acclaim), was in 2005, when
Psyreviews called it 'one of the most intelligent, considered, non-patronizing, and lastingly enjoyable releases under this genre's banner. Ever.'
Put simply, Conduktor is the product of an intensely musical mind that knows all the rules - and then knows when to break them. A
limited-edition double CD, this release includes both Conduktor and Anahata's groundbreaking downtempo /ambient opus, The Unmade Sound.
