Eluvium Biography
Portland, Oregon resident Matthew Cooper records under the alias Eluvium. His ambient washes and symponic guitar pieces would feel equally as home on a Brian Eno record as a Fennesz recording. His debut release "Lambent Materials" was released on the Temporary Residence imprint in 2003. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
