Matt Wand from Salford, UK, became known to a wider public especially with Stock, Hausen & Walkman, frequent collaboration with Tony Oxley (documented on Incus, The Tony Oxley Quartet, The Tony Oxley Orchestra on Soul Note). Had recently been commissioned by WDR sound collages extracted from WDR recordings of contemporary classical works (Schnitt-Haubenstock, composition & live performance). Individual compositions/contributions also appeared on compilations on various labels. Has received numerous commissions for installations and exhibitions in the UK and abroad.
Besides live performances, radio work, installations he has written film scripts for short films and animations (one winning the Goldcrest Award for best short in 1988) and shown many small gauge movies in the UK and abroad. He also runs the independent artistic recording label Hot Air and designs the visuals and packaging for the many vinyl and CD items released so far.
