EXPLORING MEANING
THROUGH MUSIC:
Matt Rodgers is an EDM producer for Metamind Artistry Collective, producing within varied genres ranging from House to Acid Trance, Dubstep to Techno. Never one to adhere too heavily to popular trends, he attempts to create unique variations to mainstream electronic genres and provides a quirky, retro vibe to the sounds he creates.
A self-proclaimed auto-didact, he has pursued his education in electronic dance music thus far via practical application of courses provided across venues online, among them YouTube courses, tutorials provided by PointBlank Music School, and a massively helpful online community of artists since 2015.
He believes music is a language of transcendent meanings that are hard to articulate verbally, not simply an artistic skill, and having learned several verbal languages in addition to English, has stated that his current goal is now to "learn to speak Music" and to generate moods through his work that can help those who suffer from chronic depression & PTSD.
Among his stated personal influences and inspirations are New Order, Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, Armin Van Buuren, Puscifer, Nine Inch Nails, & Massive Attack, Fernanda Martins & Amelie Lens.
Hey darlin!
A very large amount of STUFF has happened since I was regular on here before. I've gone full-tilt into techno, trance, house, etc., and got signed to a label! I produce/compose/play the music and make tracks for DJs, though in the future I'd love to get a chance to do that part as well. I have a small DJ controller but it's production I tend to be better at lol. If you want a look at my work, I'm on a lot of different places. Here's a good link to see the important ones: https://snd.click/WPPtp7bC
