BIOGRAPHY
Budapest based DJ/producer Matt-U is nothing less than a tune making machine. Armed with a seriously heavy deep and techy based sound, Matyas Szalai has made a name for himself releasing hard and heavy drum & bass for labels as renowned as the legendary Moving Shadow, Timeless and Cylon. With over 34 releases to his name since 2004, this is one producer you should be keeping an eye on.
His music encapsulates many genres of music, from drum & bass to dubstep, but all with that ‘Matt-U’ sound running throughout. Recently his dubstep tracks have been getting plenty of attention from DJs such as N-Type, TRG, Luke Envoy, Tes La Rok and many more. Look out for his releases forthcoming on Subway, Boombap, Mata-syn, Dub4Life and N-Type’s Wheel & Deal.
With just as much artistic emphasis placed on his DJ sets as his production, Matt-U can truly claim to cold rock a party with his impeccable blend of beats, incorporating everything from techy rollers to deeper, ambient pieces. This is one DJ who isn’t afraid to drop the right tune, at the right time to take the crowd on a very special journey.
