Matt Masters, the London-based DJ/Producer taught himself how to mix whilst studying at University for a Science degree in Music in 2001. Realising he had a flair for mixing, he purchased a set of his own decks and began playing monthly at a bar in Camden Town, London. Since then he has gone onto DJ at a large number of venues across the UK and Europe, presented his own radio show on Worldwide FM and has appeared on Ministry of Sound, House FM, Push FM and Unknown FM radio stations.  

In early 2004 he began a work experience placement at Freerange Records and spent his first season in Ibiza as resident DJ for Kinky Malinki, Pukka Up and SunSea Bar. During the season he appeared at many venues including Privilege, El Divino and Es Paradis. Matt was invited to join the Freerange team permanently that year and the label and its artists have played a fundamental part in his musical influences and ambitions.

Matt has played alongside Switch, Hipp-E, Jimpster, Palmskin, Mike Monday, Kirk Degiorgio and Shur-I-Kan at the London Freerange Records label parties. He has also appeared at the Sonar Music Festival in Barcelona with Milton Jackson, Garcy Noise, Tres Manos & Nacho Marco. He is currently at his new residency; the Freerange Records club night at AKA London.

In addition to his DJ gigs Matt hosts the monthly Freerange Records Podcast with guests so far including Jimpster, Diesel (X-Press 2), Roberto Rodriguez, Pezzner, Mike Monday, Fred Everything, Brett Johnson, Nacho Marco, Shur-I-Kan, Simbad, Shimiko, Palmskin Productions and Milton Jackson with nearly 10,000 downloads per week. This show is syndicated worldwide on various radio stations including Ibiza Sonica 95.2FM (Ibiza), SS Radio (UK), Club FM (Macedonia), Future Beat (UK), Proton Radio (USA), Dinamo FM (Turkey) & Pulse Radio (South Africa). He also recorded a Freerange Records Mix Compilation back in 2005 with tracks entirely from the Freerange Records catalogue - all the previous Podcasts and Mix compilation can be downloaded from the I-Tunes music store.

March 2007 saw the release of Brett Johnson's 'Life in the Emerald City' EP which featured Matt's debut remix - a digital exclusive of 'WeR1'. Matt's 2nd remix for Freerange was a re-work of Jimpster's 'A Love Like This' and received airplay on Pete Tong's Essential Selection on Radio 1 when Groove Armada filled in for Pete. The 3rd for Freerange which is due out soon is Pezzner's 'Other Lover'  so look out for that. In addition to this Matt has also remixed for Nacho Marco's 'Crash Test' on Pacha Records, for Timo Garcia's 'Hang Loose' on Berwick Street Records, for Corregated Tunnel's '2nd Thoughts' on Urbantorque and Harold Heath's 'Mercury Blues' on Elevation Records.

A collaboration with Paddy Freeform is due for release through his Universal Vibes label soon, which will include 2 original tracks as yet untitled. Matt also works with Mr Cenzo under their Mididropmusic guise on various new EP's. The first of which was signed to Guess Records entitled 'Movement EP' and kept the number 1 spot on Juno Download for 2 weeks and the new  Joints From The Lab EP on Glideslope Records  is currently at number 15 on the Beatport Deep House Chart. The 'Freshly Cooked EP' on Loudeast Records is due for release December 2008. Matt and Cenzo are currently finishing off some remix work for Adjust Records and Tricircle Records and this will be out soon in addition to adding the finishing touches to their fourth EP and an album in the pipeline.

Currently, Matt is looking forward to his solo release, 'Deep or What', through Pack Up And Dance. This will be out late 2008 with Milton Jackson on remix duties. In addition to this he also has had a digital release of the 'Walk the Walk EP' which includes 'Rolling' and 'Walk the Walk' through Urbantorque Records. This was released in November 07 and getting big support from the likes of Jimpster, Nacho Marco, James Mowbray, Murray Richardson, Mazi, Alex Parsons & Steve Mill to name but a few and also scored 4/ 5 in Mixmag Magazine UK (feedback available on request).
