Matteo Gatti Makes a Quality Contribution to the Scene with ‘Planet Earth’

Tavon Boaman
Matteo Gatti

Long-time Italian house and techno figure Matteo Gatti delivers essentials to the dancefloor with the three-track Planet Earth EP.


Matteo Gatti began his musical journey as a violinist at the age of nine, then later became a lover of hip-hop and breakdance culture in Italy. As his musical tastes continued to evolve, he joined the underground techno rave scene in Florence in the mid-90s. Gatti then began DJing with concrete jungle, playing a range of music including jungle, DnB, and breakbeat. More recently, he can be found at venues across Italy, creating unique sounds and experiences within the house and techno scene.

Today, Matteo Gatti brings forth a three-track release, Planet Earth, which features some very palatable dancefloor weapons. Out now via Bamboleo Records, this EP is an excellently curated amalgamation of house and techno sound that posits well for both European and global fans.

The EP opens up with the title track, “Planet Earth,” which incorporates some awesome retro sounds with pan-sliding vocal samples to give a welcoming start to the release. The tune then begins to bring in bubbly square-wave synth blips that give some harmonic structure and keep the energy high. Overall, the sound is upbeat and balances driving percussion and grooving basslines to produce a club-ready tune.

“Love Plane” arrives second and has a much more sultry vibe throughout. The tune starts out with some gliding, slowly opening and closing fuzzy synth pads. The bassline charges but manages to maintain subtle energy in coordination with the rhythms of the percussion and the bright melodic figure. As the tune progresses, it continues to hold the energy in the room close to the heart, decorating the atmosphere with a handful of different effects.

The third and final tune on the EP is “Serpentine,” and as the name implies, it’s a slippery dancefloor banger. Arrhythmic percussion is matched with syncopation in the melodic synth pluck, giving a fun back-and-forth sway to the soundscape while still maintaining forward momentum. Effected vocal samples clear the air for a brief moment before the bassline takes over again midway through. This track certainly will have its place in many tech-club set lists once it gets into the hands of Gatti’s fans and contemporaries.

@MitiS shares Memories of his early career and releases a brand new four-track EP on his imprint to thank his longtime fans. 🙌🏽⁠

“I fell in love with the tempo, and how it was SO different from everything else,” he told us. “It just really clicked, supernaturally. The more I wrote, the more it made me excited to write more of it.” - MitiS ⁠
⁠
He returns with his brand new Memories EP, which not only harkens back to the start of his career but serves as a thank-you to his fans. “I got super burnt out trying to write more poppy-sounding stuff, and the melodic scene is so over-saturated now that I just wanted to write how I felt and what I wanted,” he said. “I had the most fun writing instrumental music my whole career, so I decided to dive back in and have a trip down memory lane.“ 🎶⁠

  • SHOW REVIEW:⁠
Millions of people across the globe recently ushered in a fresh Lunar New Year. For those that celebrate, 2023 is the year of the rabbit, which represents peace, self-reflection, and prosperity. And in honor of this celebration, Pulse Events produced two eventful nights at @avantgardnerbk, featuring a roster of Asian artists and two dance music titans – @Gryffin and @KSHMR. 🪅🎶⁠
⁠
The renowned venue displayed a 360 photo booth with a Lunar New Year backdrop for attendees, and a constellation of red lanterns suspended throughout the space with a huge chandelier right in the center of the Great Hall – and our team was there to witness the Lunar New Year magic. 💫⁠

  • ALBUM REVIEW: 💿️⁠
There are few artists in the melodic house and techno realm more in demand than @marshmusician at the moment. His latest LP to land on @Anjunadeep, Endless, is a glimpse of what the last few years of staying busy have meant to the producer, yet also act as a snapshot of his past as he takes his deepest influences and brings them into the present. This album is the culmination of both the artistry that’s made him a staple of the Anjuna roster over the past few years and the philosophical questions that arise from long journeys. 🛣️🎶⁠
⁠
"I’ve written this entire album on the move, writing from so many different homes. On a deeper, more spiritual level, this has led me to question, what is truly home, and will we experience home after this life?" -Marsh⁠
