it seems to me that he has managed to get himself in with bands who would be good whether he was involved or not, drunkdriver, billy bao, junko & hijokaidan etc, i guess those bands accept him because he will finance stuff for them (my own speculation) and any kind of collabs that result will just sound more or less like that band does already, plus an extra laptop (which probably doesn't have too much of an effect on the end result, just a bit of extra noisiness).
until about a year ago i only knew mattin as a person from quiet improv, now he's got himself involved in all these punk bands and i wonder how he's done it because presumably (and this is pure speculation) but i can't imagine bands like drunkdriver or billy bao having much interest in incorporating quiet improv into punk rock, or that they would have approached him abot collaborating
