Matt Black - Ghost In The Machine (Alt Mix) - ***** FREE DOWNLOAD ****

From the rugged landscapes of the North East to his formative years in the South West, Matt Black’s three-decade odyssey through electronic music stands as a testament to unwavering passion and artistic evolution. When he transplanted himself to London’s vibrant scene in 1991, it wasn’t just a change of address—it was the catalyst for a lifelong love affair with the transcendent power of dance music culture. Though initially captivated by the frenetic energy of hardcore and drum & bass, everything changed when the hypnotic progressions of a John Digweed mixtape found their way to his ears in 1994, revealing the sonic path he was destined to follow.

Matt cut his teeth in South London’s intimate pub circuit, where raw talent and dedication eventually opened doors to his breakthrough club performance in 1995. What followed was a meteoric rise through London’s notoriously competitive underground scene, where his signature blend of melodic textures and driving rhythms earned him coveted slots at industry touchstones. From the sweaty, packed rooms of Empathy in Bristol to the legendary decks of The Gallery in London, and across international borders to Poland and Mexico, Matt’s musical journey has left an indelible mark on dance floors that transcends geographical boundaries.

In the studio, Matt has emerged as a formidable production force with an ear for the sublime. His collaboration with progressive house pioneers Lexicon Avenue on “The Farthest” didn’t merely chart on Beatport—it captivated listeners and DJs alike with its meticulously crafted soundscape and emotional resonance. This success has been far from isolated, with Matt’s musical fingerprint gracing releases on industry powerhouses Perfecto Black, Bonzai Progressive, Balkan Connection, and Krafted Underground. Perhaps most telling is the caliber of support his productions command, with luminaries Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, and Guy J—true architects of the progressive sound—regularly featuring his work in sets that define the genre’s cutting edge.

The airwaves have become Matt’s second home through his twin radio residencies, each showcasing different facets of his encyclopedic musical knowledge. The monthly “Housefeelings” broadcast on Frisky Radio has become a sanctuary for deep, emotive selections, while his enduring “Acoustic Pleasure” show on Proton Radio stands as one of the platform’s most cherished offerings. Both programs consistently attract electronic music’s most respected voices as guests, creating a forum where boundaries dissolve and pure musical expression reigns supreme.

With an arsenal of unreleased material currently being perfected in his studio sanctuary, Matt Black continues to push his artistry into bold new territories. As these forthcoming projects prepare to emerge from the shadows, one thing remains certain: the dance music landscape will be all the richer for having this sonic architect’s vision within it.
