Matthew and Kate's live show involves lots of improvisation with Kate playing melodies and stabs on the synth and Matthew in control of the groove on ableton. They use an mpc which is hooked up to some outboard effects and also a vocal mic. All these elements combined create a unique sound, raw but packed full of soul.
Matthew has been involed in electronic music for the last 10 or so years and worked with Connect Four, Leftroom, Retrofit and with Sammy Dee to be the first release on his label, Ultrastretch. When it comes to djing he likes to slip inbetween the styles, you know it's all about the groove and soul.
Kate's a little newer to the scene and only really started getting into dance music after meeting Matthew in 2007. Who could ask for a better teacher? In 2010, she and Matthew worked together to release on Jay Shepheard's label, Retrofit, and together they have releases with Ultrastretch and Visionquest in the pipeline
