In its first week, Why? by Sammy Paul entered the Australian i-Tunes new releases charts at number 25. That makes it officially a hit – hurray! Whether this has anything to do with the included  Matt Pop Club Mix I leave entirely up to you. Congratulations, Sammy!

Some believe the Mayan Calendar predicts the end of the world in 2012. I say 2012 will be just the beginning! So what does Matt Pop have in store for this year?

Sammy Paul‘s single “Why”, which includes the epic Matt Pop Club Mix,  is released on Monday, january 16. Her album will have a few Matt Pop-produced tracks on it and that will be released later this year.

Work is already well underway on Peter Wilson‘s next (and according to him: last) album. It will be called Laser Light (album title of the year!) and it will feature tracks in dance, pop and , yes: PWL styles!  The material is very promising so far and Matt Pop will be once again on production duties on some of the tracks.

There will also be more Matt Pop mixes for the Almighty label; two VERY well known pop classics have already been re-worked into High Energy anthems by Matt, and they will be released later this year.

There will also be new Matt Pop mixes for three of the past decade’s biggest names in pop.  I can’t reveal anything else until release dates are set, but I expect you won’t be disappointed. Oh , the anticipation!

And ofcourse there are also the Matt Pop mixes still waiting to be released by Rupaul.

Those are just some of the highlights; there will be plenty more mixes coming your way. So keep checking this website or www.youtube.com/mattpopofficial for updates.

British band In Isolation are releasing their new single Film Noir Scandal on February 25th 2012. It is a great, energetic, New Wave-flavoured pop song with a wonderfully characterful vocal. There is also a Matt Pop Club Mix of the track, with more of an 80’s electro / dance feel. And here is the best bit:  not only is  Matt Pop’s Scandalous Remix already on Soundcloud; you can actually download it there for free! So get your copy now:
