Getting hit with this spam again on facebook. Good for a giggle.


Matt K
Matt K aka DJ Matt K is the creator and undisputed king of the viciously fresh and cathartic ingenious genre of dance music known to club floors everywhere as Gangsta-Tech, the fusion of methodically syncopated bass driven techno and hip hop. Hailing... from Atlanta, Matt K took up the champion sound of house and techno and began spinning in 2001, red shirting in his studio for 2 years before detonating the Atlanta dance scene in 2003 with a more punishing sound than had previously been available in the southeast. These events helped pioneer the new generation of hard-edged events that had been eluding the Atlanta scene for so long. By the end of the year, Matt K had not only become recognized by his astonishing live sets but had become an underground mix tape legend, refusing to release anything even remotely substandard. It was in 2004 that Matt K began headlining abroad, given the opportunity to play at prestigious events in places like Ibiza and London. During his travels he discovered the true power of the global clubbing populace, traveling from packed dance floor to packed dance floor, hearing absolute mayhem being pounded through the speakers. Upon returning, Matt K focused all his attention on production, using the ideas he saw being implemented in European clubs to create the finalized direction of his Gangsta Tech sound. He used these avenues of creativity to master the unforgettable "Under the Gun" mix CD, which featured his first ever, released Gangsta Tech tracks distributed by Glitch Recordings (U.K.). The releases immediately netted airplay on such formats as the notorious BBC Radio 1 and the resulting hype helped to push Matt K through his second, more extensive, world tour, a tour that would find him headlining with some of the most respected DJs in the world. During this tour Matt K found the balance between his version of Gangsta-Tech and the hard pounding European style of Germany and London. His sets now sliced the pie of Detroit down the center: finding the middle ground in the bass and the kick. Still focusing his attention solely on defining the Gangsta Tech sound, the next few years found Matt K releasing a slew of records on such labels as Planet Rhythm (U.K.), Submissions (Holland), and beginning his own imprint in 2006: Omerta Music Group (USA). These records have defined his genre of music as one of the most impressive and infectious sounds to come from the Detroit school of thought. His DIY approach helped fuel not only his own label, but in 2007 he founded the booking agency Niytrus Management based out of Atlanta, as well as his own clothing company entitled 8mm Clothing, with its designs and styles catering to the images and ideas associated with his Gangsta Tech individualism. In 2009 Matt K starts the next phase of his worldwide techno invasion bid with the opening of the newest nerve center for all things hard: Hardtekno.net, as well as carrying out his own artist album "Fully Strapped". Matt K the mogul currently continues his global tours year in and year out while balancing his advancement of Omerta Music as far as the sky will allow it.


t'in't half bullshit. :lol:

[gunjack]

OMG i love how he mentions NOTHING about me even though his "releases on PRRUK/Submissions/Omerta etc. were 100% produced by me! what a douche.

[gunjack]

internet spam gangster of the year. take away the WWW and that fool is NOTHING.

[DannyBlack]

I know, all I can do is laugh.... I kinda cringe at stuff like this. What happens when I get released... Do I have to write crap like that about myself? eek! I just don't take myself that seriously hahaha

[gunjack]

i had to write the booklet for the new dials mavis CD check it:

1974:

Lord Shorty's “Endless Vibrations”, the first major “SOCA” hit ever, is engineered by our man Dials as part of a desire to diversify his repertoire. Later, back in the United States, Mavis is arrested with Dino Martin (singer Dean Martin’s son) for sale of machine guns. Out on bail, Dials is instrumental in formation of the group Blondie.



1983:

Dials Mavis meets singer Prince in a Los Angeles bar, the two quickly find a common musical ground and work side by side on seminal funk/hybrid hit “1999”. Dials meets painter Jean-Michel Basquiat on the street in New York and immediately commissions several album cover designs from the rising star also known as “SAMO”. Herbie Hancock and Grandmaster D.S.T. name Dials’ classic electro break tune “Back Up Bitch” (1981) as the primary influence behind the construction of runaway hit “Rock It”.



“Dials had this sound… you could hear it from blocks away… and the kids would just flock to the speakers, he was like the pied piper and shit!” – Herbie Hancock



1985:

Mavis meets DJ/Beatmaker Eric B. and introduces him to metaphysical MC Rakim.

Mavis and Los Angeles born Les Diamond define a sultry new sound in conjunction with English-Nigerian singer Sade on an album called “Diamond Life”. The first fully digital reggae single, Wayne Smith's "Sleng Teng", is recorded at Prince Jammy's studio with Dials Mavis. Davis provides a new type of “high grade” marijuana and various studio tricks which would become staples of the “Ragga” sound.



“Him a bald head… but me never see a bald head smoke a ganja and make riddims like him do.” – Prince Jammy



1987:

Steve “Silk” Hurley uses Dials’ twelve inch distribution network to make “Jack Your Body” the first house music single to top the UK singles charts. Mavis condemns American Bandstand for censoring hip hop group The Beastie Boys. Dials takes neighborhood friend Michael James for a visit to the house of then unknown producer Derreck May and “Strings Of Life” piano loops are recorded that very day with Derreck sequencing parts played by Michael and Mavis.



“Dials is full of shit, so is Michael! I made that shit myself! They were just hanging out smoking weed…” – Derreck May



1990:

Dials Mavis plays the melody for “Hey Mallorca” while visiting Italo-Disco don “Lewis Lovebump”. The song goes on to make techno/house/rave history and inspire many acts to come, most notably, British breakbeat hardcore act The Prodigy. Davis organizes exclusive Loft parties in the Gramercy Park area of Manhattan and in the warehouse district of downtown Los Angeles, introducing a clandestine, “rave” style vibe into the stagnant synth pop scenes of each respective zone. Coast to coast there is talk of a “super dj” and the “king of the remix”.



1992:

Mavis makes a split-second cameo in the film “Freejack”. Prince thanks Dials Mavis while accepting the Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual Soul Train Awards show. Dials stands as best man at the wedding of David Bowie and Iman. In Los Angeles, California, Madonna's bustier is stolen from a display at Frederick's of Hollywood. A US$1,000 reward is offered for its return. Fourteen days later, a mysterious, white label vinyl with a rubber stamp reading: “I Know Your Cup Size”, surfaces… the sound of which is, obviously, attributed to the Dials Mavis camp.



“**** Dials, that mother****er can kiss my rosy white ass.” – Madonna



1996:

Jay-Z, Dame Dash and Dials Mavis collaborate on the highly under rated “Reasonable Doubt” debut of the NYC based rapper. Mavis mourns the loss of Tupac on BET at an after party for the Bruce Seldon vs. Mike Tyson fight at the MGM hotel-casino, Las Vegas. Dials foots the bill for the Sex Pistols last, reunion concert in Santiago, Chile.

Busta Rhymes turns to Dials to reproduce “that sound” on “Woo-Hah (Got You All In Check)”. Mavis calls The Prodigy’s “Fire Starter” a “****ing joke”.



1999:

Dials Mavis goes into seclusion, rumors say our man was hidden deep in the Indonesian jungle, reportedly “looking for a new sound”. The last time he is spotted by the media there is an altercation at the Shrine Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles where Dials reportedly assaulted techno “artist” Richie Hawtin.



“Tricky Dicky was a good sport.” – Dials Mavis



2001:

Our man meets American born musician Gunjack outside Tokyo. The two quickly form an artistic alliance and the label Deafmosaic is born. Gunjack and Dials Mavis define a new sound and create fan bases in the four corners of the globe. English stalwart and innovator Mark Broom remixes Gunjack’s “Outlands”, to critical acclaim. Dials Mavis takes the music of Japanese producer Marty Mcfly to the states on a trip back to Los Angeles. Marty Mcfly “Hi Tech Kicks” is released to underground success selling more than 140,000 copies in a month.



“Marty and Dials are some crazy dudes, I mean people think I am nuts, these guys are out of their ****ing minds.” – Gunjack



2004:

Dials surfaces in Madrid and introduces Gunjack to Japanese producer Takaaki Itoh. The, now classic, “We Are The Attack (Gunjack Remix)” is released on Deafmosaic.

Dials Mavis and Gunjack tour the European countryside playing music in pueblos and big cities alike. Gunjack is invited to play in the mythical TRESOR dungeon. DJ Rush is among the public. The legendary Van Vas club retires in style, to the apocalyptic sound of the Deafmosaic singles mixed by Mavis and Jack. Dials and Gunjack later fly to Mexico City to reunite with Les Diamond and form the Diamond Music Group. The infamous “Sonidero En Dub” sessions are recorded, fusing Cumbia music and Jamaican Dub. Marty Mcfly projects images of swine in mud, onto the Mexican house of Parliament… to the chagrin of on site authorities. The three are arrested and briefly detained for “causing disorder”.



“Los delinquentes del sello Deafmosaic y la radio pirata de Diamond Music han sido arrestados…” – Alarma (Mexican newspaper)



2009:

Gunjack forms the Consume imprint. Dials and Les Diamond form sister label Digest. Consume debuts with the thrice repressed, twelve inch single “A Murder of Crows”, erasing the lines between techno, industrial and dubstep.

Digest begins to cultivate a new sound . Les Diamond, Marty Mcfly, Dbit, Flying Lotus, Mico, Forss, Proof Of Concept and with the help of Summer Rain recordings and Shotcallers entertainment, present DIALS MAVIS – GLITCHES BREW… a disc that represents more than a quarter century in the making. ENJOY.

How can you write all that crap about yourself?

Self belief is great and all, but I don't know how anyone can write such cringey self aggrandizing bullshit without hurling themselves out of a window in shame.

But maybe thats just me....

[DannyBlack]

That's exactly it Jay.

[gunjack]

for all the "genres" he "invented" and all the "headlining shows" etc i only ever hear about matt k, from matt k. anybody ever heard a solo tune? no. thats because he is a graphic designer, rich parent having, little suburban gangster, using his allowance to play "producer". he can not make anything on his own except SPAM.

[The_Laughing_Man]

He looks good with a gun.
What techno needs more of I think, people standing around with guns, we don`t see enough of that really, if only the rather slack minded and neanderthall idea of saying you are a gangster and then holding a gun in a photo had caught on in other genres, music would be so much more elevated as an artform.
