About Matt

Matt Pop is a producer and remixer from The Netherlands, known for his mixes for RuPaul, Almighty, Andy Bell, Peter Wilson, Nicki French, Hazell Dean, Cilla Black, Erasure, Bucks Fizz, Lonnie Gordon, Pierre Pascual and many others. He also has quite a reputation for doing unauthorised bootlegs that prove popular with fans and often also the original artists themselves. The many unofficial Matt Pop ABBA mixes have gained him a loyal follwing amongst fans of the Swedish Fab Four. His style is uplifting, vocal, melodic and electronic.

A little update

Barely recovered from the We Love Matt Pop Show last night on Digital Radio. I hope all of you who tuned in enjoyed the show and my rambling. It was multi-tasking in action, as I participated in the live chat, whilst being interviewed through Skype by the show’s host. Ah, the wonders of modern technology. I hope that those of you who were in the chatroom are enjoying your exclusive gift 😉 I hear that the show will be repeated this Saturday. As soon as I know the details, I will post them. And the Matt Pop attack doesn’t end there: from now on, every week new Matt Pop goodies will be released! This week David Christopher, next week Peter Wilson, then Sammy Paul and Hazell Dean, then Coconut Woman by Make-over (the only tune you’ll need this summer) and a new mix for Matt Fishel AND an all-new Almighty mix that I finished yesterday! They really should start spreading these releases out more…Oh well, never too much of a good thing, eh?

Matt Pop special on Digital Radio

 

This weekend, Sunday April 14, internet radio station Digital Radio are hosting a We Love Matt Pop show! Yes, an entire show dedicated to Matt Pop‘s mixes, to celebrate the release of We Love Matt Pop, the first official “Best Of” collection. Matt himself will be on the show, with probing questions being fired at him by the show’s fierce host Paula. Will he say “what was the question again?” like he did on that Israeli radio show, two years ago? Tune in to find out! The show will air this coming Sunday at 20.00 hours, U.K. time. http://myradiostream.com/digitalradio

“We Love Matt Pop” going down a storm!

Almighty and Matt Pop couldn’t have hoped for a warmer reception for the We Love Matt Pop album! Only out for a week now, I am happy to see many of you found your way to the Almighty website to get your download or order the cd editions, especially at a time when many people seem to think that all music is free. Both Almighty and Matt Pop have a put a lot of love, money, time and effort into the album, and it is very rewarding to see it doing so well! Here are some quotes from the Almighty forum: “This compilation is the kind of recognition Matt Pop deserves! The diversity of his talent on how he enhances each song is beautifully displayed here. …” “Excellent as usual, a great way for Matt Pop to finally get his mixes available to everyone , especially as there is a physical release. Jut shows you what starting out as a dj, or a home mixer, can finally achieve! Well done, and a great pairing, why did it take so long?!” “A great collection of Matt’s work, one of the best compilations you have done in a long time, only one thing: Will there be a Matt Pop Vol 2?” “Male Stripper – the full 8:18 mix – woo hoo & Abbacadabra. If that’s not worth 20 quid I don’t know what is.”

“Almighty presents: We Love Matt Pop” (2 cd, 3 cd, WAV, or MP3) is available now from the Almighty records website: http://www.almightyrecords.com/product/ALMYCDR089/
