The Pain You Bring ~ Mike Valenzuela and Matt Hatter

The intro tune, which is also the first single and video to be released in early ’18, is “Rise From the Ashes,” which immediately starts with a compelling vocal and a powerful guitar riff. “I wrote this song when I was still trying to work on a relationship with my daughter’s mom. It starts off sad, but ends in triumph.”
“Then I realized I had a fire inside. Then I could take off and fly, I’ll rise from the ashes and flow to the sea, I’ll rise from the ashes and die on my feet”

Rise From The Ashes

MATT HATTER creates and performs music that’s heavy, melodic and cathartic, or “emotive electronic rock,” according to the artist. Combining soaring vocals with fuzzy, crunchy guitars, groovy bass lines and steady, powerful drumbeats, Hatter is on his own and ready to release perhaps the first piece of music he’s written completely by himself, with no one else trying to influence his creativity. His new full-length solo album, “Introduction”. Josh Breckenridge at Cosmic Mastering in Arizona mastered the nine-song album.

“Rainy Day” is also about the end of that relationship. “It’s what I felt like; as if she and I were in the rain together, weathering the storm. A part of the song says, ‘together in the rain.’”

Hatter, attributes his first single wrote at The Library Studios with Brandon, but mixed and mastered by Larry Elyea from Mind’s Eye Studio, as well as recording of back up vocals. Larry is well known in the valley by many artists and they attribute their success to his knowledge and abilities. Hatter would also like to acknowledge Brandon Kruszeniak our guitarist, and the owner at The Library Studios, who without him this album would have never happened. Lastly but not by least, Phil Taylor from Future Leaders Of The World, for helping make this album possible and causing Hatter to take it to another level. Phil Taylor is featured with backup vocals on 5 of the songs.

His new full-length solo album, “Introduction”. Josh Breckenridge at Cosmic Mastering in Arizona mastered the nine-song album.
The result is a eight-song album that is a very personal piece of work for Hatter. “The difference between this solo album vs. the music with my past bands is the flow of creativity and quality of the work. I can’t wait for people to hear this, and open their minds up and enjoy the story.”

Advocate for pressure

Song from my brothers band Dryden.  Let me know if you want more music from them.

Dryden - Not Alone

This is one of many songs I created while on break since I left my band.  This song has parts that i just let come out of my head freely while looping the tracks and went from there.  I was kind of sick of hearing the same old riffs from my band so when I created these songs by myself I wanted to go for something different and unique.  I hope you like these and I have more to put up.  I created these songs within a 3 month period of taking time off from my band. Please comment and leave your good opinions.  Thanks for the support.
