Rekids - Radio Slave (LIVE) |The Sound Gallery| NAARM ( Melbourne) 19/7/23

Rekids - Radio Slave (LIVE) NAARM AUSTRALIA! "No matter what sounds you profess to be your music of choice, chances are that at some point over the last five years, you will have got your rocks off to Matt Edwards." As Matthew E he fashions club-based dancefloor slayers. Under that aegis, he’s updated the classic Chi-town, jackin’ sound beloved of house aficionados and layered it with fractured funk, belligerent, oddball beats and mechanical soul. If Matthew E is all about Saturday Night Fever, then, by contrast, Rekid is the slower, more deliberate, rhythmical funk of the mid-week mayhem. Its well-intentioned muscular intensity makes it perfect soulful sustenance. Last, but by no means least etc, etc, etc, is Radio Slave. Perhaps Matt’s most instantly recognisable nom de guerre, thanks in part to his inspirational melding of Kylie’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head to New Order’s Blue Monday, this is Matt’s DJ moniker and the guise under which he completes his incendiary remixes and re-edits. Enjoy Friends!
