Matthew Heller
Goodbye & So Long
La musique est l'art qui permet à l'âme de se livrer à l'universel.

Meet Matthew Heller, the Portland-based troubadour who fearlessly confronts the harsh realities of life in his music.
Portland's community and collaborative spirit is reflected in the city’s vibrant arts scene, which Heller embodies in his songs. He draws on a wide range of musical styles and influences, resulting in something truly unique and original.
His latest single, "Goodbye & So Long," is a driving force of evocative storytelling, taking listeners through a kaleidoscope of sounds, emotions, and textures. 
With a distinctive blend of indie-rock, folk, and pop influences, his music creates a rich and immersive sonic landscape that envelops the listener from the very first note.
Heller’s soaring vocals are the perfect complement to the music, with a range that spans from delicate whispers to thunderous roars. His piano work is equally impressive, shifting effortlessly from ethereal soundscapes to propulsive rhythms that drive the music forward.
Backing Heller’s vocals and keyboards is a powerhouse rhythm section, led by producer David Pollock, who also engineered, mixed, and mastered the song in his Fortress Galaxy studios. Pollock’s intricate drumming and groovy basslines, as well as his blistering guitar work adds a layer of intensity and urgency to the music, while Bradley Mackeson's additional keyboards add a touch of dreamy atmosphere to the mix.
The result is a sound that is at once raw and polished, intimate and expansive, joyful and melancholic. Whether he's exploring the complexities of love and loss or delving into the darker corners of the human psyche, Matthew Heller’s music is a thrilling and unforgettable experience.
Goodbye & So Long manifests an exquisite blend of post-punk garage vitality, interwoven with ghostly psychedelia and the vibes of classic alternative indie's new wave opulence. Heller's sonic craft, akin to a neo-outlaw songwriter, encapsulates the very essence of folk-rock balladry. Weaving together the vibrant rhythms of Dandy Warhols-esc groove-laden indie rock with the introspective depths reminiscent of The Cranberries' politically charged dreamy odes, this opus transcends mere musical boundaries, propelling the listener into a sublime auditory journey.
Goodbye & So Long is an epochal testament to Heller's artistic prowess, a demonstration that elevates the soul and resonates with the heartbeat of a generation yearning for melodic salvation. 
Heller’s lyrics are both poetic and erudite, saturated with a sense of profundity that is rare in contemporary music.
What truly sets Heller apart, however, is his ability to imbue his music with a sense of immediacy and gravitas. His songs are not simply exercises in intellectual reflection, but also powerful emotional journeys that resonate with listeners on a visceral level. Whether exploring the tumultuous nature of romantic relationships or the existential angst of modern life, Heller's music is always rooted in a deep sense of empathy and compassion.
Matthew Heller's music draws from a rich tapestry of personal experiences, passions, and influences. His lyrical and melodic style combines a sense of poignant depth with a musical approach that is both innovative and captivating. 
Ultimately, Matthew Heller is an artist who defies categorization, transcending the boundaries of genre and convention to create a sound that is wholly his own. Through his music, he invites us to contemplate the complexities of existence, and to explore the deep wellsprings of emotion that lie therein.

Suruba, or what in Brazilian means ´orgy´ is the word Delmar and Alvaro choose as an artistic name. An orgy of art that mixes music, design and fashion. 
The two met in 2000 at the European Design Institute in Madrid, and from that moment they became significant actors in the music industry. Delmar and Alvaro form this Spanish duo of music producers, record label managers, designers and old school DJs. 

Los Suruba has been enchanting their listeners for quite some time now with their mix of House, Minimal, Psychedelic and Deep Vibes. They define their music as Memories of the Future. 

Los Suruba managed to flourish four record labels each one with its personality, Suruba, Suruba X, Playa and the most recent one Nazca. This last one it's a unique project that links music with a fictional story inspired by ancient civilisations, the outer space, artificial and alien intelligence.

Awarded musical productions, tracks that have been in the top for weeks, a collaboration with fashion brand Marcelo Burlon – County of Milan, travelling all over the world are only a few of their achievements.

They have released with record labels like Crosstown Rebels, Diynamic, Last Night on Earth, Nazca, Get Physical, Culprit, Lazic, Tale & Tone, not to mention being remixed by international artists like Solomun, Sepp, Eric Volta, Kirik, Adriatique, Clarian, Okain, Santiago Garcia, Cristina Lazic, BRYZ, Enzo Leep or Theus Mago.

Born in Madrid in the 80’s, Domingo Bellot starts his musical career at the age of 16. Influenced in its beginnings by techno and drum&bass, his technical skills, ability to connect with the crowd and he’s diverse musical style has made him one of the most versatile DJ´s in Spain. Over the past 5 years De La Swing has shared turntables with different top level Djs as Marco Carola, Loco Dice, Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Laurent Garnier, Joseph Capriati, Adam Beyer, Paul Ritch, Paco Osuna or
Vitalic among others, and has played at festivals like Monegros Desert Festival (Spain), Eastern Electric Festival (London),Kingsday Madness (Holland), We are Together (Marseille), Plages Electroniques (Cannes), Ultra Cape Town/Johannesburg & Origin Festival (South Africa), resulting rapidly a well-known and familiar Dj in countries as Spain, France, Italy and Holland.
Since 2010 this Madrid born is one of the emblematic ElRow residents, the after hour based in the ever growing electronic hub of Barcelona, that has become one of the best clubs worldwide, brainchild of the organisers of Europe's only desert festival, Monegros, and owners of the acclaimed techno club Florida 135 in Fraga, Huesca. Equally important are his recent ElRow residencies during the summer season in Privilege Ibiza -in 2012 and 2013- and Space Ibiza in 2014.
De la Swing is that type of non-conformist artist which lives in a continuous sound evolution, where the depth, darkness and fun are always present in his sets and throughout which he shows his creativity and innovation on stage, driving his passion and vibrancy to create a different story every time, while establishing a unique connection with the crowd.
While in the studio, De la Swing is a solid and fertile mind being in charge of different labels as Elrow Music, Florida Music & Ker Recordings, having also produced and remixed for labels like Form, Drakos Recordings and Amazing Lab. However, his skills and abilities go further on. We can also enjoy its more underground side with his aka ‘Smoke Signals’, usually as resident in Ker Club Barcelona once a month, sharing his talent with artists such as Martinez Brothers, Art Department,Maceo Plex, Maya Jane Coles, Seth Troxler, Scuba or Los Suru

For all of Matthias Tanzmann’s achievements, the future is showing even further excitement and evolutionary growth. He is known as a global leader of the Tech House scene and is synonymous with Moon Harbour, his influential and soon-to-be 25-year-old record label that has already put out over 100 vinyl releases and more than 200 digital tracks. Like Matthias who first broke through as a DJ at the end of the 1990s, it constantly evolves, adapts and leads the scene from the front. 

Both he and Moon Harbour have stayed true to the signature sound that first stood him apart. They never fail to bring new ideas to the dance floor and constantly evolve with the culture. Along the way, there have been countless seminal moments. From his early residency at Leipzig’s cult Distillery Club to his first releases on Steve Bug’s Dessous label and Freude Am Tanzen in 1998 and 1999 via the infamous Moon Harbour showcases at major events including Miami Music Week, Amsterdam Dance Event, Barcelona’s 'Off Sonar' and the leading clubs of Ibiza over the last 20 years. Furthermore he is an integral collaborative member of the super group, Better Lost Than Stupid, alongside Davide Squillace and Martin Buttrich. This ground-breaking trio performs all over the world from London, Ibiza, Miami to Dubai. Together they released the acclaimed full length album Wild Slide and accompanying remix album. 

Whenever he plays, Matthias locks his global audience into his winding and hypnotic grooves for hours on end, always ramping up the pressure and keeping dancers on their toes. He has consistently performed as a resident for almost 15 years at Ibiza's wildest and the most cutting-edge Circoloco party at DC10. He also plays in demand back-to-back sets with partner in crime Davide Squillace and is regarded as one of the favourite players at the infamous ANTS events at Ushuaia Ibiza. In between those regular gigs and picking up several DJ Award nominations, he is on a constant tour of the world's most celebrated clubs and events from Elrow to Solid Grooves to Music On. 

Founded in 2000 and followed by sub-label Cargo Edition in 2006, Moon Harbour Recordings has been a vehicle for much of his music over the years, though it has also been responsible for bringing through plenty of next-generation talents. Matthias Tanzmann has served up three solo albums on his own label - Restless in 2008, Momentum in 2016 and the far-reaching Round And Round album in 2019. Each one shows how he brings colour and narrative to his music through the careful layering of percussion and the teasing out of deft sound designs to make for moments of real dance floor drama. Whether working solo or in collaboration with the likes of Steve Bug, Black Circle or Daniel Stefanik, the key for Matthias is to never stop evolving, asking questions and exploring new ground. Furthermore as a keen contributor to the industry and passing on to the new generation, Matthias shared his vast knowledge with a unique production masterclass in collaboration with Mixmasters in Ibiza in 2023.

As a remixer, Matthias also brings an in-demand signature sound for the likes of Jamie Jones, Dennis Cruz, Moby or Booka Shada. His Remixes 2002-2012 compilation showcased his adeptness and adaptability, and he has further cemented his legacy as a definitive DJ with seminal mix CDs for revered series like Cavo Paradiso Mykonos in 2010, Circoloco in 2008 and 2011, fabric London in 2012, and several times for Moon Harbour.

What started as an obsessive hobby back in Leipzig became a globe-trotting profession. Importantly, though, Matthias Tanzmann has always retained the sense of fun and inquisition that motivated him back then. That shows in the tracks he continues to skillfully craft, whether deep and moody for cozy backrooms, or more raw and jacked up for the main room. From his sets to his productions via the music he A&Rs for Moon Harbour, Matthias Tanzmann blends a deep understanding of dance music dynamics with a burning desire to keep things moving forward.

The past is a ghost, but we’re chasing tomorrow.
