Information About

Mat Jarvis




Mat P. Jarvis is an label under the name Gas. More recently, Jarvis released material under the name High Skies.

Mat Jarvis' work as Gas is often mistakenly credited to an Alias used by German electronic musician Wolfgang Voigt . Although the two artists sound somewhat similar, they are separate and distinct musical entities.

The Gas 0095 album is a highly collectable CD often changing hands for over $100 , and has been known to reach over '''$350''' on eBay. The album, which includes "Microscopic", "Experiments On Live Electricity" and "Discovery", is also noted for the inclusion of the track "Timestretch", which is rumoured to be a complete four minute track shrunk down to one second. Much speculation has been made over whether the track can be stretched back again to recover this 'hidden' track.

Em:t Records went out of business before the follow-up album Gas 2298 could be released. There has been a version of the album circulating the internet, but this has been confirmed as fake.
