We, Computers (Matt Play Remix) - Etienne De Crécy [Download]

Over the years I've explored many different genres. I've gone bass, deep, progressive, tech and everything in-between - but when I first started DJing, I was playing nothing but funky breaks. 

In 2001 I put out my first "official" mix. Meaning it was the first mix I mass-duplicated and passed out on the party scene for promo. It is the mix that started everything for me. It spread like crazy and got me booked throughout the south-east. It was called Tantrum. 20 years later, I decided to return to my roots and bring you this - Tantrum II. 

This is a mix of new breaks I've collected over the past few years - but a lot of it has old-school flavor. Like all my other mixes, this is intended to be a bit of a journey. Harmonically moving through a certain buildup into peak energy, then descending into darker tunes and smoothing out at the end with some uplifting vibes... All while keeping consistent classic breaks and Miami bass elements to tie it all together. I hope you like it! Please share if you do.

Much love,
Matt

This is for the old INSOMNIA Nightclub crew! This is a mix built entirely from classic tracks that I commonly played during my DJ residence at Insomnia Nightclub in Huntsville, AL from 2004-2008. Comprised of my selection of mainstream house from the time, along with more underground selections. From early night, to warm-up, into peak-time, and after-hours... the journey thru the memories is here... Enjoy!

The full extended mix of this record is now available for free download!

(I originally produced this remix for K5 Music Productions LLC. I did this several years ago for free, just for the exposure and opportunity to work with artists I have always been a fan of. The EP was originally released and available on all of the major platforms. However, their distribution method must have expired, as the song is no longer available on these platforms. My efforts to contact the label about renewing the distribution were unfortunately met with no replies. Therefore, I have decided to now offer the extended version of my remix for free download. Thank you for the support!)
