Matt Effect

Bringing you classics with a Nu Disco and Funky House twist, guaranteed to be a hit as these all were. Disco is where my love of music started, this feels like a love letter to my parents who'd put on a lot of these artists and we'd all listen, sing and dance along. Hope you do too!!

Live recorded set from Lazy Bear 2024's Saturday T-Dance at Johnson's Beach in Guerneville, CA. This is the FULL 5 hour set, start to finish. Except disco, house, nu-disco, club tracks, lots of stuff for everyone including many classics... it's a Tea Dance after all!! Relive the fun as the sun went down, or have a listen in anticipation for 2025. See y'all up on the river next year!!

Two things y'all should know about my music by now; I love a journey, and any throwback is always on my playlist. Enjoy these house mixes and samples of tracks you haven't heard in a while.

Cannot get enough of a good sample, redux and remix. Have put together a mix of all these and a few new ones as well. Giving you a progression through funky, house and tech house.

As y'all know, I love pretty much all kinds of electronic music, so putting together this was tough. Only because I wanted to do a few different things, but very happy with how this all came together. Get ready for an eclectic journey from tech house, house, some funky, and big progressive. Get out there and dance!

Been sitting on a lot of these tracks for awhile. When I need some time to regroup myself,  or chill out but still be lifted up, I put on some airy and euphoric melodic tracks. Sit back, unwind and listen.

One last set to end out the year. Expect tracks I've played for different gigs, a few classics and reduxs, plus some you'll hear next year. Thanks everyone for the support and look forward to more fun, sets and surprises to come. Happy New Year!!

For those of you who wanted more techno.... here it is!! I do love any good sound that has a big, rolling energy, this podcast will deliver that with all your techno needs being met.

It's a week out until Folsom in San Francisco, one of my favorite weekends of the year. Last year I was very fortunate to play for an event that means a lot to me, Read Bad. Here is my opening 3hr set from the night. Happy Folsom!! ♥️

Since I list in the Progressive House category, I wanted to do something very progressive with some melodic vibes. Whether you're chilling out, pushing on, or need to relax, please enjoy being the passenger with this podcast.

Feels like I've been listening and playing these songs for a long time, so was due to put them onto a podcast. Expect funky, rolling house and tech house tracks, plus a few classics. Have fun everyone and stay safe!!

I've been sitting on some of these tracks for nearly a year, and it was time to put together this big, driving, dark and sexy techno podcast. Turned out to be longer than planned, so get ready for this session!

There's been a bit of a heatwave recently, and I couldn't help myself but to put this together. Tons of classic redux tracks, with lots of bouncy energy, and some new stuff too. So get into the Vibes!!!

We all need a bit of a lift, some good vibes and to dance again. Some of us are coming back out, others are still in for now. But remember that the light is on the horizon and we will all be together soon. Keep being safe and enjoy these vocal house and uplifting classics (plus a few new tracks).

The final in the set, :AFTER is a collection of melodic tracks to have your night continue on, or even something to get it started if it's your thing. Image by Serge Gay Jr - sergegayjr.com

From day to night, this is a darker, bump and grind techno sound. One thing I have missed is my late night sets going into the wee hours of the morning. This should take you there! Image by Serge Gay Jr - sergegayjr.com

It's been awhile since we've have been poolside, not just because of the weather. But I was aching to put out something for more earlier in the day. Vocal, funky, and tons of grabs to the past. Image by Serge Gay Jr - sergegayjr.com

It's been awhile since I did a dark and dirty, techno podcast with my flare on it. Been sitting on some of these track all year and a few new ones. Everyone stay safe and hopefully we'll make more memories again soon

Lately I've caught myself dancing almost everywhere. Kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, all over. These are tracks that have made me wish I was in a DJ booth for y'all. We will dance together again soon.

After seeing the poster from nearly 1 year ago by Techniche, I decided to add to their #tbt by uploading my set. Live recording of the night which also celebrated Overdrive's 6th birthday. Sadly we can't celebrate their 7th but more fun times are to come. Enjoy this Techno and Tech House set

After the positive responses from my last podcast, decided to put together another similar sound with a flow into progressive.

Wanted to slow things a little and put together a melodic podcast. It's been a bit since I put something new out, hope you enjoy these tunes and you're all safe and well.

For most of us we're confined to our homes, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy ourselves. Here's some big club songs to get you moving until we can all let loose again.

This podcast is a collection of tracks from 2019 that were part of my sets as well as some favorites of mine. Hope everyone had a good year and is set for a big year ahead.

Sometimes you just have to let the music take over and do what it will. This podcast is definitely steming from my darker and dirtier sounds, so just go with it.

Live recorded set from Up Your Alley Street Fair by Folsom Street Events on Sunday July 28th, 2019 in San Francisco, CA

Tis that time of year again, Pride is upon us. When we remember those who came before us so we can be our true selves. Here is a vocal and uplifting podcast of classics and new tracks for you to get in the spirit. Happy Pride everyone

Recently a lot of my sets have been Techno and Tech House styled events. I'm a lover of all music; there should be no bounds for something that you are drawn to. Hope you enjoy this podcast of tech tracks.

On Saturday November 17th, 2018, OVERDRIVE celebrated it's 5th anniversary at Spin Nightclub in San Diego. This event is a staple in SoCal's LGBT nightlife and I was fortunate to kick off the party. Here is my live set.

Things I cannot get enough of: big beats and lots of vocals. I think this one delivers those. Hope you're ready to get it going and read what is being put out there.

I know it's been awhile since my last podcast, and I don't plan to have you wait as long for the next one. Wanted to bring you a more exclusive tech house sound. I come from a very eclectic musical upbringing and love getting to play all kinds of music live. So it was time for me to give you that. Still your fun and rolling tracks with some classic redux mixes.

After a big year gone by, it's time to reflect and look forward to the prosperities ahead of us. Launch off into the stratosphere. Happy New Year everyone

We all need a little bit of love to get us through it all. Don't be afraid to share the love and accept it from others. And don't be afraid to dance it out!!

In 2012 I was apart of ANTHEM on my birthday. This year, I was very fortunate to celebrate my birthday with OVERDRIVE, San Diego's only monthly gay after hours dance party. Relive the night that was with this 2 hour mix.

You gotta put in the hard yards, so you can reap the rewards of your labor. This will get you pushing for that end goal.

I Remember House had a massive farewell party to Ivy on Good Friday in Sydney. Which included a huge line-up of 23 DJs. Here is my recorded set from the Pool Club. Thanks everyone who came along and relive it all over again.

It's almost one of my favourite times of year, the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras festival and this year we're Creating Equality. Can't wait for all the fun including the Mardi Gras Sunset Cruise through Sydney Harbour on Tues Feb 28th

Tis the season again, so I couldn't help myself but to make a new podcast. If we've learned anything this year, it's to treasure those around you and share the love. Merry X-MASS everyone

Recently there has been some changes in the world and one thing we all need to do is come together and be there for each other. One thing that can do that is music. Enjoy

It's time for Pride, which is when we celebrate who we are, where we've come and those who have been here before us. Show your true colors and be your authentic self #LoveWins

You've been asking when the next podcast comes out for big club sounds... and here it is. Hope this quenches your thirst. Stay tuned for more coming soon in association with manupp.net

Lately a lot of my sets have been very vocal and I couldn't help myself but to make a similar podcast. Some new songs mixed with a few remakes. You'll surely get into it

It's been awhile since my last podcast came out, a lot of new stuff coming up soon. Everyone reacts best to big and rolling tracks, along with vocals. This is for you

I have been sitting on a few of these tracks, waiting for the right time to put together this podcast. Get up and enjoy it

It's a new year and so its the perfect time for a new podcast. You know I love my big beats and hope you do too. This will surely get you into the partying mood.

Getting you into that fun and lifted spirit. You guys wanted it, and I love to keep you happy!! Vocals, energy, real upbeat tunes. Enjoy

If you like it big beats, this podcast is for you. I do love a good bump n' grind and this is sure to get you into that feeling. If you're up for it, get into it!!

After returning from The US, a new podcast had to be made. This session features tracks played during my sets from Up Your Alley by Folsom Street Events and DESCENT at Vancouver Pride. Till next time North America xx

In anticipation to Harbour City Bears presents LOVE FUR, I have put together a little collection of tracks to get your feet stomping and put you in the party mood. Prepare yourselves for a FURocious Queen's Birthday Weekend

Put a cocktail in my hand and dancin' poolside. Couldn't help myself to give a big salute to some fun and funky tunes to get you in the mood for some warmer occasions
