About Martin Eden

Martin Eden is Matthew Cooper aka Eluvium. Martin Eden is the new nom de record of Portlander Matthew Cooper, AKA Eluvium, who's released a steady collection of ambient and minimal recordings. This new Martin Eden project sounds a bit less earthy, and a bit closer to Cooper's reported influences (the Field, Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, Kraftwerk)--muted, synthesized sounds mumble and churn along, as a hint of rhythmic ecstasy bubbles subliminally under the surface.
