MJJVGMEPI (Japanese Video Game Music EP One)

This is my tribute to my first musical love: Chiptune.

These are all reworks, live edits, covers and remixes of video game tunes than have inspired me in one way or another. They are reworked in an electronic music style similar to the work of Sasha, William Orbit, and DJ Shadow. It took me around 5 years to convince myself that my work isn't complete dogsh1t. I am happy to now share these with everyone.

MJ.MMXI.MIXI (2011)

The past 2 years since Balearik have been quite interesting: trying at times, humbling, and definitely eye opening. I've spent a great deal of time planning my next move for the journey as well as for the crafting of the '2011' mix project.

For this mix the tracks I have selected I gear towards what I would swoon to hear on a night out in SF. The mood will capture the sound of the first half of a night at a club, from open to ferver point. Starting with hard-hitting yet soothingly deep & sultry "The Mad Philosopher", the sassy sci-fi funky house feel of "Technocolor", and a nostalgic uplifting disco revamp track "Feel". The drums kick-in with a zealous tribal workout "Long Legs Running" and "1998". Back to the "1980's", we relive the magic before the quirky but confident, Platipus-esque, 'rainforest' laced climax of "Cicadas". The last few seconds showcase a little Stutter Edit playfulness just for f-s sakes.

MMXI.MIXI is the precursor to the latter half of the night, the Indian Summer inspired second mix; on its way soon. Enjoy this lively sparkling varietal and get ready for something that pops.

I could not have had the capacity to create this without the inspiration of Hugo Allen (Diskord), Jefe Haviland (Vital), Jordan, Julian, & Tyler Bremer (Attic), R.C, Trug, Stu Troupe, Tracy Whipple, & Tasha Scott. Thank you.

I - Vital - I
II - Martin Patino - Make Love 
III - DJ Tim, Fady Ferraye - The Mad Philosopher 
IV - Jay Haze - For So Long 
V - Taras Van De Voorde - The Game

Matthew J. became interested in electronic music at the early age of 11 when he was introduced to dance remixes of popular artists of the early 90's such as Michael & Janet Jackson, Gloria Estefan, and Madonna. This led to the discovering of artists abroad; Massive Attack, Sasha, Underworld, BT, William Orbit and other artists under the radar of the radio airwaves.

As Matthew had also been inspired by the melodic sounds of the 1990's progressive house, downtempo/ambient, and world music he strives to weave sounds of numerous genres to present a modern day fusion of popular and underground dance music. He has played numerous clubs and events throughout the American west coast opening for the likes of John Digweed, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo, Henry Saiz, Sandra Collins and many other well known artists in the electronic music community.
