New York, United States

Matt is a DJ from New York City. Born and raised in the Bronx, he was exposed to many genres at home including Blues, Rock, Motown, and R&B. All of that exposure to music and the culture of New York City has molded him into the artist he has become.

Mat's first gig was as a drummer. Beginning 1999, he started playing in punk bands and became very involved in the NYC underground punk scene. He played all over the tri-state area; including at legendary clubs like CBGB and The Continental in NYC.

It wasn't until he was 21 (in 2005) that he decided to start dj'ing at parties. At this time, Matt was both playing in a band and dj'ing. Wanting to focus more on one craft, he decided to put most of his energy towards dj'ing. He started by playing college parties and house parties. Eventually, his experience led him to playing at clubs like Pacha, TenJune, Riff Raff's, and many other NYC clubs throughout the years. His eclectic collection of music makes him the ideal dj.
