Sound Of The Week: Matty Marz


Poised to make a splash in the pop music scene, the electrifying artist Matty Marz unveils her mesmerizing new track, “EPILL,” now available across all music streaming services. With the skillful production of Akira Akira from Mad Decent, Matty ushers in her latest hit, “EPILL,” a track that radiates an undeniable allure, beckoning crowds to the pulsating heart of the club scene. Drawing on the mystical depths of late 90s electronica and the enchanting allure of early 2000s pop, Matty forges a sound that’s both extraordinary and enthralling.

Matty shares her journey with “EPILL,” noting, “‘EPILL’ was a song I always wanted to make but didn’t know how to articulate until its conception,” she says. “It’s a dark and seductive mid-ecstasy hit electronic record that explores the highs and lows of a trip.”

Hailing from New York, Matty Marz is a trailblazing force among the fresh cadre of young trans women ascending the ranks in pop music. With the melding of unguarded, bold lyrics, cutting-edge electronic rhythms, spellbinding pop harmony, and an eclectic blend of influences, Matty is sculpting her unique auditory identity.

Matty’s expertise isn’t just artistry—she also possesses a profound knowledge of classical music, both in vocals and composition, amplified by extensive experience in production, live performance, and songwriting. Recently, she has further honed her skills at the Los Angeles Academy for Artists & Music Production (LAAAMP).

Already boasting a repertoire of successful singles, Matty is set to soar even higher in 2024 with the launch of her inaugural album, m.w.u. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Ethel Cain, Charli XCX, Bjork, & Infected Mushroom, m.w.u is an odyssey of bliss and liberation. Spanning a broad spectrum from industrial to electronic, drum ‘n’ bass, and trap, Matty presents a multifaceted and engrossing body of work that promises to astonish her audience and elevate them to an alternative sphere of awareness.
