Right now, Matthew Dear is arguably one of electronic music's most versatile artists. He's made stripped-down, fluid constructions as False, rough, acid techno as Audion, and more pop-oriented fare as himself. Dear explores the latter tonight, with support from a full band (aka his Big Hands). While the earliest incarnations of this setup were slightly shaky, Big Hands have found their stride, having tightened up with extensive international touring. The resulting show is the antithesis of faceless electronic music, and Dear proves to be quite the charismatic showman, with plenty of swagger and Byrne-esque intonation.
