Question

Anyone know what he is like live or as a DJ? He's playing in Sydney on Saturday and wondering if I should go check him out. He's playing live with Marcella Woods as well as a 2 hr dj set. I've listened to most of his productions and remixes, anyone seen him live before?

Finally, some news on Matt Darey. He's been talking about becomming a DJ for awhile now & I'm glad to see he finally went through with it. As for your question, I've heard him play @ Loveparade last year (MP3-Beautiful) and it was pretty good. I think Matt Darey will be a kick ass DJ because his remixes are great.


Posted by Linx_da_cat on Apr-12-2001 13:49:

yes. his mash-up mixes are very pleasing to the ears. i'd love to see darey spin live! he definitely has the potential to become one of the greats.

Hey Romp,

First of all definately go and see him, its not very often us Aussies get to see any trance artists let alone good trance artists!
ALso, do you know if he is coming to Adelaide?? Cos if he is, i am definately gonna go see him. Does anyone know a place where we can check out his tour dates?? I'd much appreciate it cos Australia is a trance hole so i wanna see any good trance artist i can dammit, even if i have to use a fake ID to do it!

I love his tracks and his remixes are among my favs too. Is he touring all of Australia?? I am in Adelaide and usually we get the bigger internationals. Usually - last year we missed Ferry Corsten

"NOT HAPPY JAN!!"

Hello! like Matt Darey

my Fav Matt Darey track is
Liberation

its an oldie but i still love that track

glad to hear he is going to be spinning


Romp u should post a reveiw on his set on here

It would be very interesting to see how Matt Darey does live and in front of a big crowd. If he can spin up stuff to the same level as his Euphoria series, then it would be well worth your time to go see him.

yes definitely and even if he isn't...give him some time and i'm sure he will live up to euphoria! this guy's got some serious talent. i dunno...to me it seems innate for him so i'm sure he'll become realll big.

Matt Darey's Live PA

I just saw Matt Darey & Marcella Woods do a live PA at a local club here in Perth. She sounded awesome, and didn't in anyway sound poor live. Marcella's rather sexy too! She wore this insane little Union Jack skimpy outfit and a long cape.

They performed Liberation & Beautiful, and a Track I haven't heard of yet. Perhaps a newey or promo? It wasn't as good as the other two though.

As for afterwards, Matt Darey played the usual boring Hard House, which I was surprised about, because I thought he was a Trance DJ. He didn't even play any of his remix work!

But "Romp" don't let this distract you from going! I figured he played Hard House because the resident DJ here always plays Hard House, so maybe he figured that's what Perth's into, but this shat me to tears Because I'm sick of Hard House, and I was hopefully going to hear some good Trance, from him, and the tunes I was hearing were no different. That was disappointing.


Posted by Romp on Apr-13-2001 05:58:

yeah unfortunately Hard House is the stock here in a lot of Sydney clubs as well, to hear 1 trance track you have to hear 10 HH tracks, but this club is one of the more trancey ones so hopefully he will spin some trance


Posted by TeKnoHe@d2025 on Apr-13-2001 06:10:

Hmmm....if u click that link that Romp posted u can hear clips of Matt Darey's 2 new tracks: Mash it Up and Big Bad Bassline. Mash it Up is pretty good, but u can hear how the Warp Brother's "Phatt Bass" has gotten to his head though...


Posted by Chewy on Apr-13-2001 16:05:

have fun~!
and tell us how it was
latarz man


Posted by Linx_da_cat on Apr-13-2001 16:07:

/me thinks swampz might want to put up and australian forum in the local scenes section. hehehehe.


Posted by patticus on Apr-14-2001 09:28:

matt darey's remixes are the definition of epic..
interesting to know, you guys down under are plundered w/ HH also (notice the excellent rhyming ability)

does he have any aliases, id like to know


Posted by Romp on Apr-15-2001 07:10:

OK guys, I went last night, and he was awesome!

Started off with Marcella Woods who was standing on a small platform which was right on the dance floor, so she was right in with the crowd (and of course I was up the front wooo!). She performed Liberation and Beautiful and really got the crowd going, and I dont think I was the only one that was close to tears it was so beautiful.

Then he started his set and it was very good, nice mixture of some hands in the air trance and some harder stuff as well. Am not a dj myself so I cant really comment too much on the mixing but I didnt notice anything wrong with it. The crowd was totally going nuts and he was really into it as well. Marcella Woods also came down and danced and chatted to everyone which was great, she was nice, and when Matt Darey finished his set he also came down to the dancefloor, chatted to a few people, I had a chat to him and he was a really nice down to earth guy, I asked him if it was true he had only been djing for a short time and he said "yes, only 3 months"! Then he talked a bit about how he was a producer etc, really nice guy!

Anyway if he's only been djing for 3 months then I'm sure he can only get better, one to watch out for in the future.

Hello! Nice One

Nice one Romp,

So if i ever get the chance to see Matt Darey spin then i shall.


Posted by TeKnoHe@d2025 on Apr-15-2001 17:55:

One of Matt Darey's alliaces is Tekara. I also think he's in Lost Tribe.

Yeah, his site is pretty nice though it does need updated. The top 10 has been the same for months now! Maybe even a year...
