Music bio:
“Working with sound is like sculpting stone – you’ve got to destroy it a little to get anywhere!” jokes Newfoundland-born, Montreal-based dj/producer Matthew Hiscock. With tracks released digitally and on vinyl on Car Crash Set, Phuturelabs and the new Swing & Skip Records, he’s gotten play on the UK’s RinseFM and KissFM and received numerous mentions in XLR8R magazine. He’s also played live sets at Montreal’s highly respected events Piknic Electronik and MUTEK.
When not making or spinning tunes, he runs the Make Some Bass production interview blog, which has featured Bok Bok, Ghislain Poirier, Submerse and Resketch, Dubbel Dutch and more. In his remaining spare minute he writes for Music Think Tank and coordinates the Big Things! music collective.
Schooled as a recording engineer, that technical knowledge, and the DIY gear he uses, makes for tracks more distinct than the run-of-the-mill club bangers. Referring to his “homebrew” modular analog synthesizer, which he uses on virtually all his productions, he says he’s “always preferred using analog gear, and I’m pretty picky, so it makes sense that I would make my own at some point.”
A self-described “music lifer”, he’s worked in almost every facet of the music industry. This includes running tech-house record label Bodega Audio between 2004 and 2007, releasing music by himself and others, with support by some of the biggest names in dance music: Lee Burridge, James Zabiela, Slam, James Holden and more. Already it looks like his work in bass music is shaping up to make even bigger waves.
