Anyone can construct a track, and lay out its elements in all the right places - have the bassline kick just here, or the percussion build right there - but only a select few can actually design one.
It comes as no surprise that Matt Edwards aka Radio Slave is a graphic designer and artist by trade, as a visual thread runs colourfully through his sonics, rhythms and arrangements. Shaped by the groove, and ever leaning on an uplifting hypnotic lilt, every production that falls under the spell of Edwards becomes certified dancefloor gold.
Matt also runs the highly influential Rekids label releasing high quality music from artists such as Spencer Parker, Toby Tobias, Mr G, Audiofly and many more. Matt resides in Berlin but is famed the world over for his long hypnotic DJ sets blending stripped back house with percussive techno and minimalism.
He has just mixed 'Fabric 48' which is available now, and here's his new mix & interview - enjoy!
