Artist Biography
As the Soft Pink Truth, academic, writer, and Matmos member Drew Daniel showcases his nimble production skills and explores the transformative power of dance music. With each album, the project's focus shifted: 2003's Do You Party? drew on funk, disco, '80s R&B, and composer Erik Satie for its booty-shaking allure, but 2004's Do You Want New Wave or Do You Want the Soft Pink Truth? turned vintage punk and hardcore songs into house anthems that felt even more subversive than the original versions. Later, the transcendent fusion of R&B and post-classical music of 2020's Shall We Go On Sinning So That Grace May Increase? and the sensual, ambient-tinged disco of 2022's Is It Going to Get Any Deeper Than This? offered joyous reprieves from the era's political and social conflict.
