ContirbutorMattheo – ‘Atta Boi’
Release Date – 1st April
Street Food Records
Returning with his second release, Chicago born Mattheo (Matthias Mehrpuyan) showcases futuristic banger ‘Atta Boi’. Creating a textured soundscape with intricate layers and a captivating vocal sample, his sophomore instalment continues to exhibit the sophisticated production abilities of the emerging producer.
Of the track Mattheo says: ”‘Atta Boi’ is a track that was written strictly from attempting to break the common rules of dance music. It took ages to figure out what worked in the studio, but after countless hours of jamming, the legendary OB6 came in to save the day with some epic synth leads, at which point I brushed its face right next to the oscillator controls and whispered “Atta Boi”.”
Mattheo amalgamates his Chicago roots with a nostalgic nod to the early 90’s rave scene, combining articulate breakbeats and layered textures with his own unique modern-day studio techniques. Paying close attention to telling a story through rolling melodic bass lines and cutting vocals, his productions sit comfortably alongside the likes of Bicep, Dusky and Four Tet.
Having already played key shows with Joris Voorn, Gui Boratto and Dusky, along with his recent appointment as a resident DJ at Primary Chicago, expect a steady flow of consistently high calibre releases from Mattheo.
