Unmarked Routes
Sine Sign (working title) is the debut recording for Unmarked Routes and is due for release Spring/Summer, 2025. It was recorded at the amazing Guilford Sound studio in Vermont (USA) and features 13 (maybe more) original compositions in which Matt and his cadre of musicians beautifully merge a string quartet, woodwinds, and grand piano with synthesizer atmospheres and experimental electronics to create a sound that is at once subtle and contemplative yet expansive, rhythmic and hypnotic with a stunning level of personality and emotion.
​
Joining Matt in the studio were these amazing musicians: Catherine Bent (cello), Bengisu Gokce (violin/viola), Stan Strickland (woodwinds/voice) and engineer John Escobar. The ensemble had an awesome total immersion experience - great music, great meals, amazing nature, unreal studio!
​
Until the recording is finished, you can hear some of the music in the VIDEO section of the site. ​
