On Tour: Prepare to savour Matt FX’s genre-surfing charm live in Asia

When it comes to introducing Matt FX, first of all, let’s talk numbers. With over one million combined music streams and two million total YouTube views, he has firmly established himself as a force in the music industry.

Renowned for his fun and eclectic DJ sets, he’s been invited to grace the stages of notable clubs and parties such as A Club Called Rhonda, Soho House, Avant Gardner, House of Yes and Le Bain.

Keeping in line with the numbers theme, as a DJ, producer, and music supervisor, he has curated sounds for more than 100 TV episodes.

Beyond the booth, he dabbles in a culinary venture named DUBPLATE NYC that’s earned him recognition as a food personality; his fried chicken sandwich is hailed as the best of its kind — over 1000 served.

Now let’s talk music. Matt FX's ability to curate eclectic and diverse cuts indicates that he’s more than comfortable navigating various genres and styles; a strength which has led him to share line-ups with top-tier names like Bob Moses, Boys Noize, Bonobo, Carl Craig, DJ Seinfeld, Ivan Smagghe, Disclosure, Marc Rebillet, Azealia Banks, and Charli XCX.

The "musical polymath" (as mentioned by Forbes) brings a unique and irreverent approach to his sets, characterised by the New York Times as "interesting social commentary on multiple levels."

Currently, he is gearing up for the release of his debut album on Soul Clap Records, adding yet another dimension to his already illustrious career that has been recognised by esteemed imprints such as Warner/Big Beat, Disco Halal, Sorry Records, Wolf + Lamb, Kitsuné Musique, and Toucan Sounds.

Make sure to stay on top of Matt’s schedule as he lands in Asia this weekend; dates below.
