Biography:
Mateo & Matos have proven time and
again they've got musical spirits like few others in the
house scene.
In the summer of '85 (believe it or not) John Mateo was
spinning whole sets over the airwaves of his CB radio. It
was through this self-produced show that Eddie Matos first
made contact with John Mateo. They became friends quickly
and partners soon after. They have been inspired by listening
to Larry Levan, Tony Humphries, Shep Pettibone and Little
Louie Vega.
From '86 through '89, Mateo & Matos
performed at a staggering number of club festivals and old
school block parties in the tri-state area of New York.
In late 89 they started producing and have released numerous
E.P.’s and singles from then until now on many record
labels throughout the world. They've since torn up dance
floors spinning in over thirty countries. You can find their
unique New York soulful sound in dozens of original productions
and remixes on record labels such as King Street, Fluential,
Nervous, Large and Glasgow Underground.
If spirituality and soul in house music
is what you seek, Mateo & Matos provide it. They're
one of club-land's most enduring and well-known house DJ
and production partnerships
