A propos de Mat The Alien

Since the age of 14 Mat has been mixing & scratching beats spanning many genres whilst always having one thing in common - heavy drum beats Really Good basslines.
It all started after hearing the electronic sounds being played in the warehouse parties around the NorthWest of England in 1988.
Mats dad opened a record store in 1978 called Vibes Records (#1 independent record store in the UK) and eventually a second store Muze in Bury just outside Manchester where his parents grew up.
Being around music from an early age lead to Mat taking up the drums at age 10 then it was
1988 that he stumbled upon the underground Illegal Acid House DJ scene taking over the UK warehouses.
From then on he searched out where this music was from and how it was put together on the turntables. Muze records became a store where the locals djs came to get the new underground sounds and Mat began playing his first shows before he was even old enough to get into the venues.
He played sets on pirate radio shows such as I.B.C. Radio, began playing shows and charts on Da Intallex radio show run by Marc XTC and Marcus Intallex.
Then came scratching through seeing XTC and after hearing a tape from Dj Hype on Fantasy FM. Many nights were spent cutting back and forth trying to figure out how Hype got those crazy transformer sounds. These were the days before internet tutorials and dvds so it was a lot more trial and error.

In 1995 mat and his family moved to Whistler Canada to pursue his new found love for snowboarding where he met djs like Vinyl Ritchie (who gave mat the name Mat the Alien) and Kilo Cee. These djs were playing diverse sets dropping Hip Hop into Funk into electronic music .
Whistler had mixed crowds from all over the world and mat enjoyed doing sets where you could flip from genre to genre and add lots of cuts in there too Jamming lots of times on 4 turntables with other djs.
Described by Knowledge Magazine as 'awe-inspiring' & 'some next level shit.' Mat has toured across the globe in Places like London (Fabric) ,Vienna , Miami , Los Angeles (Low End Theory) to Moscow
He has performed at Sports events Recently for the Canadiens (Habs) NHL game to 25000 people, the Supercross in Las Vegas , the Olympic Games (Torino & Whistler) , the X Games Aspen.
