malloc Matthew Thies San Diego Malloc (Matthew Thies) creates ambient landscapes from delicately crafted sounds, giving spectral content equal status with melody, harmony, and rhythm. Experiments with stochastic systems and micro-sounds led to the EP Louisian Stars, released in 2011 on Artificial Music Machine. This project moves away from the layers of drone found in Malloc's past endeavors and deals more directly with structure and pulse to create ambience from many tiny musical moments that are gently unveiled to the listener. Along with writing music as Malloc, Matthew has been an active performer in Austin's electronic music world since 2002. He began as a member of the ambient performance group Numbers on the Mast (whose self-titled album was released by Artificial Music Machine in 2007), later sat in with sonic magicians Book of Shadows, and collaborated with Eric Archer as Visitor Q. With a background in computer music from Berklee and the University of Texas, Malloc draws on influences ranging from Aphex Twin to Steve Reich. malloc’s tracks 400 Series01 by malloc published on 2024-01-10T23:13:51Z 400 Series02 by malloc published on 2024-01-10T23:13:50Z 400 Series03 by malloc published on 2024-01-10T23:13:48Z 400 Series04 by malloc published on 2024-01-10T23:13:47Z Nmass 03 by malloc published on 2014-06-04T23:21:43Z Nmass 02 by malloc published on 2014-06-04T23:21:42Z Nmass 01 by malloc published on 2014-06-04T23:21:41Z Daban Urnud by malloc published on 2014-01-17T17:27:47Z Base Six by malloc published on 2013-05-20T22:46:47Z Dione remix by malloc published on 2013-01-15T21:50:59Z
