Technical yet groove-able, M&D layer their vocals with dreamy languor reminiscent of New Order awash with reverb and stab the comfort with vibrant noise. After several solid albums of acclaimed releases these Bostonian gents crank out tunes equally suited for break-up mix tapes or a dance floor throwdown.
Editor's Pick, Download.com

Boards of Canada-esque rocktronica, the duo's three mostly-instrumental albums have inspired a small, rabid following among electronic music fans and DJs across the country. M&D just recorded an EP's worth of propulsive dance music with lots of breathy singing, ravesploitation synths, and live drums. See why they calls themselves a band when they open for Kompakt's the Field at Great Scott.
Boston Phoenix

Matters & Dunaway are up to their necks in electronica, but is a very good kind of electronica that brings to mind M83 at times. Sweeping arrangements make songs such as "RNA" soar without sounding too over-produced. Meanwhile, "Memorial" features a darker mood along the lines of The Cure or Moby.
Pop Matters

Matters and Dunaway truly distinguish themselves from the bulk of the electronic acts that have purists so squeamish, they are, through and through, a live band. And a very good one at that.
The Weekly Dig

Vangelis meets the most Eno-esque moments of "The Unforgettable Fire".
Grooves

Multi-instrumentalists Thomas Gallagher and Andre Obin, have taken their heavy, dream-state electronica and pushed it further into well developed, cinematic themes. From passive 80s new wave - the perfect backdrop for a John Hughes remake - to sci-fi chase scenes and futuristic robot battles.
Glide

Electronic rock so warm it will melt through any mid-January Northeast blizzard.
