   About Ma./Tom Challenger
Press: "Ma. are sure to carve out their own space within Europe’s electronic/improvisation landscape, with a distinctive sound moving between serene Boards Of Canada-esque layers, explosive noise-improv in the vein of Norway’s Supersilent, Tortoise-style beats and dark, abstract dub soundworlds. With members of Red Snapper, Three Trapped Tigers, The Heritage Orchestra, Outhouse and Nostalgia 77 it’s not surprising that Tom Challenger’s heady, often Messiaen-inspired material is subject to such a multi-pronged interpretation.

The quartet is powered by Dave Smith’s percussive flow, by turns sensitive and tumultuous, whilst Matt Calvert’s Fennesz-meets-Lee Perry electronics weave between the melodic focus of Challenger’s sax and the textural glue of Ross Stanley’s organ and rhodes."
