About Matt
My journey with electronic music began in the raw, energetic warehouses of Toronto in the mid-90s, where driving beats of techno first took hold of me. Leaving a rave at sunrise, with the rhythms still echoing in my mind and my feet (literally dance-walking my way home) is something I've carried with me through all forrms of electronic music.
This has led me to the belief that every genre, when you strip it back to its core, holds a beautiful, mechanical heartbeat that pulses with the spirit of techno.
Everything Ends in Techno is not just a performance; it's a conversation between the music of the past and the technology of the future. I take pieces of the sounds I love and rebuild them in real-time, creating something new and unique.
I'm incredibly excited to share this creative process with you.
