Matthew Cardinal - Feb 21st

from Ho! Ho! Ho! Canada XI by Ho! Ho! Ho! Canada

/

about

For the second year in a row Matthew Cardinal starts off Ho! Ho! Ho! Canada. Last year we predicted a busy year for the amiskwaciy Edmonton) based musician, and we weren’t wrong. As part of nêhiyawak(, he released the critically acclaimed debut nipiy through Arts and Crafts. The band combine post-rock, ambient pop and shoegaze with history, culture and politics. The record is a story, informed by collective experience and memory, a continuation of a wider, ongoing tale of community and connection. Its a beautiful, complex and thought-provoking listen and one of the best debut releases of recent years.

Alongside this, Cardinal also recorded the score for Digging In The Dirt, a documentary about mental health in the oil patch of Alberta. (gem.cbc.ca/media/media/absolutely-canadian/episode-23/). Packed with ambient sounds, electronic glitches and industrial cracks it’s a moody evocative wonder.
