Album

Ultimate Care II is the new album from renowned conceptual electronics duo Matmos Drew Daniel and M. Recorded in the basement studio of their home in Baltimore, the album is constructed entirely out of the sounds generated by a Whirlpool Ultimate Care II model washing machine. Like its namesake, the album runs across its variations as a single, continuous thirty eight minute experience that starts with the grinding turn of the wash size selection wheel, and ends with the alert noise that signals that the wash is done. Ultimate Care II is an experimental electronic music album by Matmos, released on February 19, 2016 on Thrill Jockey. Ultimate Care II consists entirely of sounds produced by the musicians' Whirlpool Ultimate Care II washing machine, recorded in their basement. It features guest contributors Dan Deacon, Jason Willett from Half Japanese, Max Eilbacher and Sam Haberman from Horse Lords, and Duncan Moore from Needle Gun. The album consists of one 38-minute-long track, described in a press release as. Named for the Whirlpool model they used to record the album, Ultimate Care II takes listeners through an entire cycle, literally and figuratively: its single 38-minute track matches the time the machine takes to wash a load of laundry. Between the creaking dial that commences the album and the buzzer that announces its completion, there are enough layers to fill a hamper.

About Ultimate Care II. Ultimate Care II Q&A. As a result, Ultimate Care II is reliably dream-like, the sort of album you never quite hear in the same way twice passages jut out or fly under the radar. Arguably the second-least obtrusive entry in the Matmos catalog just behind 2008s synth-mad opus Supreme Balloon, the smooth, sly Care doubles as a starting point for the uninitiated and a magical, mystical journey into the picayune-cum-avant mass-production hinterlands for everyone else. Raymond Cummings. Ultimate Care II is not a sequel. Nor is the title some sort of parody of other albums. As a quick google search can attest, it refers to a particular model of a washing machine, as featured on the cover. The album is a masterwork of sample-based songwriting. The Ultimate Care II is actually transformed into an full-grown band in its own right. Sifting water creates ambience, tumbling creates drums, beeping creates melody, and no one section sounds exactly the same as another, which is another achievement in its own right.
