AFTERLIFE OUT NOW

Since launching the Datsik brand, Troy Beetles continues to evolve as a solo artist all the while pushing his beloved bass music world to new lengths, both on a personal artistry level and as a genre as a whole. From bedroom producer to chart-topping artist, internationally touring act, and owner and founder of the enterprising Firepower Records, Datsik is poised to make bass music the sound of the future with his recent Down 4 My Ninjas EP (Nov. 2014 / Firepower Records) and upcoming release Smoke Bomb ft. Snoop Dogg (Nov. 2015 / Ultra Records). 

Datsik took his initial steps into global dominance in 2009 with his first official release, the Nuke ‘Em EP, which set the new precedence of the future of dubstep and bass music. Immediately following that was the Boom EP featuring Excision and the legendary Flux Pavilion as collaborators. In that same year, Datsik claimed 10 Beatport #1 releases. Additionally, he has also released massive remixes for dance music icons Skrillex, Diplo, Kaskade, and Zedd, as well as two collaborations with Bassnectar and two more with Diplo on his Express Yourself EP. He has also remixed artists from the mainstream pop world and hip-hop spheres such as Coldplay, Lil Wayne, MGMT, Linkin Park, Wu-Tang Clan, one of the biggest influences on his sound, and, most recently, Lana Del Rey.

Nonetheless, Vitamin D, his debut artist album released on Dim Mak Records in 2012, remains his gleaming trophy of work. Rightfully so, as Vitamin D was the first project to illustrate the full spectrum of Datsik’s production cannon and to give glimpses of the artist’s potential as a producer and songwriter. Vitamin D was the first major milestone of many to come in the Datsik storyline. The next chapter came in 2013 in the form of a two-part release, the Cold Blooded EP and the corresponding Let It Burn full-length album, both released on Firepower. While shorter in length, Cold Blooded packs as much a punch as big brother Let It Burn. Hand in hand, Cold Blooded and Let It Burn comprise the knockout one-two punch in Datsik’s artillery.

Datsik stands at a point of transition with his recent EP Down 4 My Ninjas. It exemplifies a more mature Datsik, both in sound and in vision, as it sees the producer taking vast steps outside of dubstep and deeper into his ever-burning fondness for hip-hop. In essence, it is his love letter to the hip-hop and bass music genres and sees a full circle for Datsik as it combines the best of both worlds. Featuring collaborations with DJ Paul of renowned Southern rap group Three 6 Mafia and the legendary KRS-One, Down 4 My Ninjas sees Datsik keeping one foot in bass and one foot in hip-hop and, for the first time ever, sees the artist pairing his original productions with bona fide, universally celebrated members of the rap world. 

With Down 4 My Ninjas in tow and a hefty supporting tour scheduled for 2015, expectations are higher than they’ve ever been for Datsik. Beetles welcomes the challenge, though. It’s what’s kept him developing since those bedroom producer days, and it’s what verifies Datsik as one of the leading figures in the bass music scene of today and tomorrow.

Raised by the early and mid 90’s NYC club and rave scene as a follower of the now famous Frankie Bones’ Factory parties from under the Brooklyn Bridge to The Tunnel and Limelight, Matty P finally found his way into DJ’ing in June 2007 while residing in the Philadelphia metro area.

Influenced by those same sounds and environs, Matty made sure to continue the same tradition in his sets by offering a constant 4/4 bass sprinkled with techno and broken-beat elements. Reminding his audience where it all began and where to go next with the sound of electronic dance music in whichever scene he finds himself a part of.

After throwing his own event in South Philly at Ulana’s Nightclub, in the summer of 2007, a well-known local DJ of 10 years: Jon Anthony saw the talent and potential his sound had. He immediately added him as a resident of Square One at Liquid Charm (the longest running house and breakbeat monthly in Philadelphia.) He held that residency for two years as well as one year for Jon Anthony’s The Get Down at The Liberty Bar.

His two-year tenure in Philly assisted his successes elsewhere, but mostly in the EDM underground of the northeast region of the U.S. He extended himself to New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and most recently: Texas.

Since moving to Texas in May of 2009, Matty found himself at Numbers Nightclub in Houston. Within the next month he was asked to guest DJ and, immediately following that night, he was asked to be a featured resident at "Revolve!", owned and operated by Chris Kairo.

The following summer of 2010 to present, Matty teamed up and began an additional residency with a multi-genred, libertarian-minded crew of DJ’s who formed the largest EDM Crew in Texas: Underworld, owned and operated by Bart Black.

Underworld has become a musical movement and the new standard in underground electronica events in Houston, TX. Matty currently holds residence at their seasonal GLOW event and Underworld Friday weeklies.

Today, you’ll find Matty promoting the Tech Funk movement: heavy bass-laden Electro, Fidget and Breaks.  He also has teamed up with Bart Black and El-Nino of Underworld for a new project: The Electro Enforcers: a 2x4 3-DJ tag set that has Houston party-goers breaking their legs on the dancefloor! With soon to be released production works coming in 2012!
