Perfectionist Matthew DeKay returns to club Essential!
You may have already witnessed his epic DJ sets at Essential Knockout festival in year 2007 and Club Essential in March 2006. You’re welcome to enjoy his unique and pure sound once again on Friday, 3rd of October.
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 on of the most consistend 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 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.
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 was responsible for breakin the massive Perasma – Swing 2 Harmony;that went on to be signed by Ministry Of Sound and appear on countless compilations worldwide. In September a re-vamped and re-mastered DK Recordings will be unveiled, and with it several sibling labels to boot!
Take part in one of the best parties at the biggest &greatest club in the Baltics – Club Essential - on Friday, 3rd October!
