Mat Riviere is one of the songwriters behind genius bedroom lo-fi heroes The Bells The Bells.

Now Mat hollers his songs over circuit-bent casio, sampled beats and battered floor tom, his lyrics full of love, desperation and simmering violence.

On Mat Riviere vs. The Owl Box, Mat showcases two live favourites Evening Drive and The Give In with new song Lamplight, while The Owl Box provides abstract beats and tape noise for the intervening tracks.

On Ilya & Emilia For Example, Mat’s Pause is a standout track of handclaps and racing bass.
