Percussion and electronics master Matt Weston has released this experimental CD with compositions entitled "Vacuum". This is music very differnt from all the other projects in which he participates. In fact here he is the only musician doing all the electronics and percussion. The experimental music contained here goes from extremely subtle percussion passages, like in the beginning of "Vacuums II" for example to louder passages were he puts an emphasis on the intensity of his improvisation. Fans of experimental drumming will be delighted with this release. Favorite tracks: "Vacuums III" and "Vacuum IV". Contact: www.mattweston.com
