"To those who do not know mathematics, it is difficult to get
across a real feeling as to the beauty, the deepest beauty, of
nature ... If you want to learn about nature, to appreciate
nature, it is necessary to understand the language that she
speaks inö Richard Feynman, Physicist
Marshall Watson returns to Highpoint Lowlife records with his
second collection of affecting electronic compositions
entitled "Math And Other Word Problems", carelessly weaving
strands of Cologne style dub techo, minimal house, avant-pop
and shoegaze sensibilities. The end result is a refined and
rich development in the maturation of Marshall Watson's style
and sound.
With his usual exquisite attention to mood and detail,
Marshall Watson's follow up to his 2004 debut "The Time Was
Later Than He Expected", centres itself around the theme of
the elegant beauty inherent in mathematics, a beauty at once
cold and austere, yet capable of pristine perfection and
evoking a strong emotional resonance.
Marshall is back now, living in Seattle and working full time
on music after spending a year in Brooklyn. He has carved
himself a respectable niche within the North West's burgeoning
techno and electronic music scene, with upcoming shows at
Oscillate, one of Seattle's finest forward thinking music
nights, and also at this years Decibel festival, one of the
largest and best electronic music festivals in the US.
