Hi everyone welcome my name is Mathew, just a quick introduction about me. Born in Phoenix, AZ I grew up with a love for music at first it was music like The Used, From first to last, chiodos, etc. As I got a little older in life I was introduced to electronic dance music by one of my favorite singers Sonny Moore with his whole Skrillex project. I immediately fell in love with what I was hearing and started listening to it all the time. At first I didn’t think of music production or the whole DJ aspect of it because it was like early 2010 and I was like 11 or 12 years old. But it didn’t take long to discover how he was making the music he was putting out or how he was performing in front of strangers. But through YouTube in the early 2010’s I would watch his videos of live performances or interviews of Skrillex to hopefully learn what and how to do the things I was hearing and seeing. That’s when I learned about music production on a computer and the concept of being a DJ and so I was hooked. I started going to guitar center with my dad whenever he was going to get something he wanted so I could play around in the DJ section of the store and self teach myself. And eventually at around the age of 12 or 13 I got my first laptop and DJ controller to use at home and practice and play for as long as I wanted. I will say I took a break from DJing and music production during my time in high school to make sure I was going to graduate while maintaining a part time job but never forgot about my dream career as a music producer and DJ. About a year after I graduated from high school I managed to get my hands on a new DJ controller and picked up where I left off after a 5 or 6 year break or hiatus. And eventually I was able to get a solid laptop to hop back into music producing I believe this was in 2020 and have been consistently honing my music production skills since and here we are today with a solid number of releases on my personal SoundCloud account here and will continue to push my sound to as many ears as possible. Thank you for your time I know this is quite a bit of reading but I think it will help you better understand me and my start in music. Sincerely Fadedgray✌🏼🤘🏼🫶🏼🙏🏼❤️🔥
