Discography

Mattia Prete has been at the heart of Techno Jazz a new musical movement where the freeform improvisation and instrumentation of jazz meets the futuristic and hypnotic mechanics of techno. Prete has been working in this niche as a DJ, live performer and producer, but also as manager of Jazz-o-Tech, the innovative and well-known label based in Berlin and Milan that is home to many upcoming visionary talents.

Prete now lays out his unique vision of Techno Jazz on a first EP under his own name for Jazz-o-Tech itself. Three of the forward-thinking tracks are collaborations with musicians Prete admires and respects, and one is a remix from Reeko the Spanish techno producer.

After releasing Silent Rain EP as part of Beat Movement duo, Prete now fully steps out with a bold representation of his take on the fascinating techno-jazz sound. It is cinematic and expansive, heady yet physical, and builds bridges between the famous Berlin sound and the exciting new developments happening in his native Italian scene.

'Moon, Please Don't Go Away' with composer and multi-instrumentalist Alberto Fiori pairs heavy, spacious bass hits with a rousing lead synth. It is epic, suggestive, and a real call to arms before the pummeling kick drums charge into cosmic battle. 'The Bright Side' with the great French trans-jazz band Bada-Bada slowly but surely gets you in a trance. The drums are powerful and liner, but the jazz sax up top is loose and liquid. It unfolds with increasing tension before the energy dissipates and you're left adrift in space next and the sax returns as a more friendly presence. Mattia then links with jazz pianist Uri Gincel and producer and guitar player Daniel Calvi for 'Burning Man,' which was previously a part of the This is Techno Jazz Vol. 1 compilation and is a deep, dark and brooding track full of eerie suspense.

Daniel Calvi is also the collaborator on 'Stein'. It is a track dense with ideas - the train-track drums, the tortured keys, the waves of synth, then a stunning acoustic guitar solo that brings beauty and hope. Last of all, dark industrial techno maestro Reeko remixes 'Stein' into a thumping and cavernous groove with twisted synths that drag you into a dystopian future.

This is a landmark EP from an artist who is helping to take techno into innovative new realms.

Stein (Reeko Remix)

Premiere: Mattia Prete & Daniel Calvi - Stein (Reeko Remix) [JOT019]

Ambition is a quality that many artists give up when they are in a stable and comfortable situation - we have seen it in a multitude of producers, especially those who tend to headline more conventional festival line-ups. It is probably for this reason that we tend to praise those great artists who occasionally step out of their comfort zone and into other fields. In contemporary electronic music, however, there are avid artists who are not content with doing well in a particular field, but who aim to embrace as much as possible, and to make the most of their potential in other musical fields.

Mattia Prete is one of these multifaceted musicians, producers or artists, who understands that electronic music can be especially heterogeneous and very diverse, and that it can have influences of all kinds. Mattia has not invented anything because at this point everything has already been invented, but he is a producer committed to music. From his record projects Jazz-o-tech and Aurora he shows us that musical genres such as Jazz can be perfectly associated with advanced electronic music, experimental or dance music. 

Likewise, his qualities as a producer are just as exquisite as his work as a record producer, and this is how he demonstrates it in his latest release, published on Faith Disciplines. Live Is Waiting is an intense 6-track, with a neat sound and different settings. Mattia Prete manages to make his music penetrate the listener's mind, evoking different states of mind and demonstrating a great skill to operate in different contexts. Each cut tells a very different story, but all agree that its sonic condition is brilliant.

The author himself adds a few words about this release:
There are things that can't really be expressed with words, inner emotions that I must transform in musical forms, not to feel more free but to be able to observe them and to reflect on circumstances.

This is for me the way to understand better myself and to communicate with the world.

Release date: February 4th, 2022.

Life is Waiting EP

I Wanna Dance

Premiere: Mattia Prete & Daniel Calvi - I Wanna Dance Ft. Scott Martingell [FAITH030]

FAITH030 . Life is Waiting EP by Mattia Prete


Bandcamp  ➟ https://bit.ly/3Hm6jHz


Electronic dreamer Mattia Prete opens 2022 with “Life Is Waiting” on the Faith Disciplines label. His six track offering lands this year and is another mesmerising trip to the outer edges of the techno world.

Faith Disciplines is a sublabel of Subsist Records, and focused on more experimental sound territories.

Prete grew up in Lecce, Italy but is now based in Berlin where he runs his own studio as well as managing the cultured aurora. and jazz-o-tech labels. He is someone who always imbues his music with deep, personal feelings as well as a love of sci-fi, the freeform nature of jazz and avant-garde sound design. In 2021 Prete layed out his unique vision of Techno Jazz on a first EP called “Moon, Please Don’t Go Away” for Jazz-o-Tech itself. Three of the forward-thinking tracks are collaborations with musicians Prete admires and respects, and one is a remix from Reeko the Spanish techno producer. The risk taking DJ was also formerly part of the Beat Movement duo that appeared on releases with artists like Oscar Mulero, Stanislav Tolkachev and SHXCXCHCXSH as well as playing in Europe's most quality night clubs. He knows exactly how to craft loopy music that you never want to end.

Prete opens up with guitarist Daniel Calvi, and Scott Martingell, the singer from the Blue Foundation band who was part of the original Twilight movie soundtrack. Their 'I Wanna Dance' breaks out on a broken beat that is powered by squealing, tortured guitar sounds. It's a new rave sound that is expertly designed before 'Sacre Scuole': a lo-fi, grainy tension before hulking great drums take over and drive onwards under artfully pained and melancholic synths.

Prete then, links up with 'Maledetto Me,' a haunting piece of interplanetary ambiance with a pulsing and urgent rhythm buried deep down below.


The 'El Cairo' track contains Egyptian reflections on the period in history when wars raged in Cairo, as interpreted by Reda Youssef. It is another suspenseful and atmospheric builder with booming bass, razor sharp hi hats glistening in the shadows and a sense foreboding building from start to finish. The excellent 'Life Is Waiting' ups the ante further with a twisted sonar pulse spraying over loose, rumbling drums that canter along a pace that really invites you to move your body. Last of all, ' The Fear of The Greatest' feat. Mataya Waldenberg then brings clunking machine sounds and eerie solar winds to a dystopian techno landscape where a mysterious female vocal drifts in and out of focus up top.

Brilliant, dramatic and intriguing, this is an all consuming and thoroughly stylish new EP

D3. Studnitzky and Bodek Janke - Rebirth

This double album is a deep dive into Jazz-o-Tech carefully nurtured sound. What unites the label and its broad array of artists is a desire to fuse the traditional improvisation of jazz with the avant-garde experimentalism of techno. Over the last couple of years, it has done that to critical acclaim with a series of innovative EPs and LPs from artists all over Europe that cooked up fresh new sounds that push the boundaries of electronic and acoustic music further than ever.

For each track, we put together jazz musicians and techno producers and asked them to freely express their vision of what techno-jazz should be. Our poly-centric musical identity speaks of many possible futures in a multitude of individual dimensions, unified by an ambitious artistic effort to write a new chapter in music. The result is an innovative musical language that aims to provide a new sonic vocabulary for jazz and avant-garde electronic. We really hope you like it as much as we do!"

Finnish duo Aki Himanen and Aleksi Kinnunen kick things off just as their new album A Thing with Feathers is about to drop. Their 'Valediction' is led by melancholic trumpets and hypnotic drums, while Reeko, Katharina Ernst and Leonie Freudenberger combine to create dark, heavily percussive rhythms and eerie synths on 'Snake Spirit.' Flat Maze pairs glitchy techno with edgy piano chords and Supercore keeps up the pressure with clattering drums overlaid with a snake charmer-like sax line. After Lyder's soothing and suspensory 'Sea of Thought' with its gorgeous wind sounds and soulful vocals, techno legend Sunil Sharp remixes his collaboration with experimental label regulars TUN into a frenzied mix of free-jazz motifs and industrial rhythms.

Stanislav Tolkachev comes together with Aki Himanen & Aleksi Kinnunen for more detuned, unhinged synth madness, Bodek Janke & Studnitzky reset the mood with a calm yet menacing fusion of ambient synths, prickly rhythms and fluttering wind sounds, then Fabrizio Rat remixes his work with Bada-Bada into a pounding techno groove with mysterious jazz melodies. A Dinamite remix brings textured broken beat techno to the fore, Morgen Wurde & Tis keep it deeply dark and atmospheric on their cut with Tetsuroh Konishi and Sliver Galaxy then races off into the cosmos on high energy and uplifting jazz-techno rhythm. Finally, Bada-Bada releases the tension with a celebratory sound before Key Clef and Luigi Ranghino's 'Piano Movimento 2' closes down in gorgeous neo-classical fashion.

This collection once again proves that jazz and techno belong together as it takes you on a rollercoaster ride through many fascinating fusions.

Margherita

Premiere: Mattia Prete, Daniel Calvi and Leonie - Margherita [JOT028]

Premiere : Mattia Prete - Solar Approach ft. Alegros [JOT034]
(From Eruption EP) . Out 21th March


Mattia Prete returns to Jazz-o-Tech with a new EP that emphasises the power of collaboration. His dark, abstract Eruption EP blends electronic and jazz sounds and features musicians from the label roster across five edgy tracks. Prete has been expanding his musical horizons in recent years. After building a solid foundation in techno, he has begun to work across a wider world of electronic and organic sounds while also working closely with formally trained
musicians, plenty of whom feature on this EP.

'Solar Approach' ft Alegros rides on rubbery kick drums and has sweeping chords that reach up to the sky where twinkling melodies awake. There's a halfway switch up when breakbeats change the groove and sombre trumpets sweep across the mix.

Jazz-o-Tech is a label that draws on the rich heritage of two of the most visionary and experimental genes in music: jazz and techno. Taking inspiration from the freeform creative nature of those two musical worlds, artists on the label mix tradition with modernity, improvisation with experimentation, and create a new sound known as techno-jazz.
Modern music needs to be ambitious. It must aim to deliver a musical message which is one step beyond what has already been heard. It must take you on a new musical journey into unknown dimensions and emotions.

Mattia Prete is a Berlin-based DJ, producer, band member, and label manager whose ambitious electronic music is deeply influenced by club styles such as techno and electronica, merged with intricate jazz rhythms and organic instrumentation.

As a DJ, Prete has a versatile sound, and his sets tell a sonic story, taking the audience on a transcendental journey that keeps mind and body engaged on the dancefloor. His mixes incorporate intelligent, dreamy, fluid, and eclectic genres, including techno, jazz, IDM, tribal, and broken beat, all built on strong, propulsive grooves.

In the studio, Prete’s work is infused with sci-fi futurism and the immersive scope of film soundtracks, producing a unique sound that has gained international acclaim. He debuted with “Moon, Please Don’t Go Away” in 2020 on Jazzotech, the label he manages, and has since released the vinyl EP “Life is Waiting” on the experimental label Faith Disciplines, as well as singles like “Palettes” and “Zamovliannia,” featuring classical musicians from Dnipro’s Philharmonic.

Prete recently co-founded the 505 band project with Daniel Calvi, exploring electronic rhythms with a sensitive trip-hop sound and incorporating live electronics and organic instruments for a trippy, textured experience.

As label manager and A&R of Jazzotech, Prete has laid the foundation for a new club scene called Techno Jazz, producing original music and live events featuring jazz and electronic musicians.

One of his most notable projects is the double LP “This is Techno Jazz,” featuring collaborations between artists like Stanislav Tolkachev with Finnish band Himanen & Kinnunen, Katharina Ernst with Spanish techno innovator Reeko, Tensal with Turin jazz band TUN, Fabrizio Rat, and trombonist Gianluca Petrella. This project also inspired a party of the same name, held at Kantine Am Berghain and Sage Beach, with legends like Matthew Herbert, Fabrizio Rat, and Studnitzky.

Prete has played at renowned clubs and festivals, including Montreux Jazz Festival, Fusion Festival, Kantine Am Berghain, Jazz:Re:Found Festival, and Tresor Berlin.
