Biography
With an artist father, a violinist mother and a singer sister, there was absolutely no way Matan Zohar was going to have a normal job. After being gifted a guitar by his father at age 8, Mat began to develop an interest in music and when he returned back to England as an eleven year old after a ten year stint in America, he added the drums and bass to his repertoire as he joined several bands.
Around this time though he began to take an interest in electronic music due to the influence of popular acts at the time such as Daft Punk and The Chemical Brothers and before long he began shifting his talents towards producing and Djing. He started grinding in his city, putting in work on the DJ circuit and furiously producing in his bedroom until he was picked up by Anjunabeats, the Trance label founded by legendary UK dance act Above & Beyond.
With the perfect home for his talents, Mat Zo’s productions began to pick up substantial critical acclaim. His collaboration with Porter Robinson hit number one on Beatport and paved the way for the release of his 2013 debut album, ‘Damage Control’. Featuring the talents of Chuck D and many more, the album was considered a sterling first effort, building his profile and allowing him to begin to tour prolifically. He has also released productions under the Moniker MRSA, a name which he uses to showcase more Drum and Bass leaning productions.
Live reviews
Mat Zo was amazing. Just what id expect of him. Nothing but great music afrom him. Llayed some classics and some new stuff from his new album. Venue was questionable though... Dj booth is located by some steps. Makes it hard to walk or stand with out the thought of falling over. The crowd is what was the most annoying part of the experience. I went with my girlfriend because we both genuinely enjoy mat zo's music. But it was hard the enjoy his set as much because the people were super drunk, spilling their drinks everywhere, constantly yelling in your ear. This white girl wanted 4 ft of space between her to dance all stupid and got pissed if you got in her "area". The place is jam packed and you want the space to yourself? Wtf bitch?!

KILL THE ZO. All I can say was that these two packed some serious punch together. When tag teaming those Pioneers the true magic begins to show. Kill the Noise and Mat Zo both had separate sets which gave a little taste of both the artists style and preference. At about 12 they both got on and it was all a blur from then on transitions were on point and gave a lot of unique sound to make this a memorable night for everyone there
