Matt Wand once of Stock, Hausen and Walkman is a genius. This not a accolade lightly given either. I saw SHW play in Edinburgh several years ago (supporting Zoviet*France) and was utterly blown away. The two of them playing laptops, a nord modular (I think) and cd players played a set that lurched from easy listening to pure noise with an almost glib virtuosity and perhaps rarely in music a lot of humour. Their records - some of which are constructed from home organ demo records are well worth tracking down.
I'm listening to Small Rocks another recent Matt Wand project. Great electronic music thats not up its own arse but is instead quirky, fun and above all great to listen to.
