Matt Hsu's Obscure Orchestra Details
Matt Hsu is a 2020 Queensland Music Award winning composer and multi-instrumentalist who creates intricately crafted experimental music using world instruments and rethought everyday objects. His one-person orchestra project Matt Hsu's Obscure Orchestra is the brainchild of his offbeat musical sensibilities, shaped by a childhood stint as a Buddhist monk, touring with Japanese artist Kenta Hayashi, co-founding folk-punk band The Mouldy Lovers, immersion into street jazz in New Orleans, and love of cinematic scores. He draws on his Taiwanese-Australian roots to create otherworldly compositions that celebrate difference, inclusivity and the fuzzy spaces in-between cultures. Enamoured with natural sounds, Matt blends world and orchestral instruments with field recordings and everyday objects used to produce unique sounds (such as bicycle spokes, saws and kitchen utensils). As an advocate for the fair treatment of marginalised peoples, he often uses music projects to underscore First Nations, gender diverse, refugee and immigrant issues through artistic collaborations. Matt has composed and performed for TEDx, Bigsound, La Boite Theatre Company and Brisbane Festival. His work has received critical notice from Los Angeles Cinefest (Finalist), SBS News, Sydney Morning Herald, Brisbane Times and ABC Radio, and has charted at #1 on 4ZZZ.
