Matthew Dekay is one of those artists impossible to pigeon-hole. You’re as likely to find his tunes in the record boxes and CD wallets of Sasha and Deep Dish as you are in Eric Morillo and Victor Calderone. This ability to transcend genres is what makes this hugely talented Dutchman stand out from the others, and means he is one of the most consistent and respected artists in dance music.
Like so many great producers, Dekay was classically trained as a child. He leapt out of the orchestra pit, turned his back on a successful pop career and now has his feet firmly planted on the dance-floor and for that we should be eternally grateful. If you wanted to stick a label on Dekay, then ‘progressive’ would be the most obvious, yet that doesn’t do justice to the sheer breadth and diversity of his sound. As far removed from monotonous, dull prog that damaged the scene so much, Dekay’s music is forward thinking, full of life and most importantly – you can dance to it, as easily as you can listen to it. It’s a sound overflowing with groove!
Dekay’s work is admired across the board. Through his epic DJ sets, Matthew has built up a truly global following, conquering territory after territory, airwave after airwave with demand for him on an upward gradient month after month.
With such an ear for quality, it was only natural that Dekay would turn his hand to A&R and set up his own label DK Recordings. The label is responsible for breaking the massive Perasma – Swing 2 Harmony; that went on to be signed by Ministry Of Sound and now appear on countless compilations worldwide. 2008 brings with it a new era for Matthew’s label a stock of subliminal material awaits release.
After a critically acclaimed mix CD, ‘Trousy’ on Armada in 2005, the follow up is nigh! Trousy volume 2 is almost upon us and his time will come again.
His new radio show is the talk of the town and we wonder why he didn’t step up to microphone sooner. ‘Sonicbox’ is aired monthly on the world’s biggest Internet radio station DI.FM, and has been an instant success with listeners as well as fellow DJs alike. To be checking out Matthew’s sound, and the sounds rocking his box – the Sonicbox is where you need to be each month.
