Featured Guest

Back in February 2010 Mad EP stepped up to the plate and unleashed a monstrous multi BPM and diverse genre mix exclusively for the show. This week he’s back with a fresh selection of ill sounds. If you’re unfamiliar with Matthew Peters (Mad EP): Peters – Iowa native (formerly based in New York, Chicago + Montreal) is a recent UK transplant with a vast background in electronic and classical music. His talents bear on Mad EP productions in such a way that the end results are diverse and unclassifiable, calmly defying expectations as he skims through every imaginable genre to reach the outer limits of a territory that is indisputably his own.

Making his own music over the past 10 years, variously described as electronic, alternative hip-hop, breakbeat, avant jazz, classical, sample-mania, and consistently unpredictable. His performances have been experienced in clubs, squats, restaurants, art galleries, concert halls, roof tops, radio studios, theatres, and festivals all over North America and Europe. He’s part of Sub.FM with a monthly show called “Tasty Cyanide Radio” – which goes beyond dubstep & garage, featuring all bass-centric music. In under a year, his playlists have been hailed as uniquely creative and innovative, and have a cult following to match.

Peters is a consummate collaborative musician. His releases are full of guest appearances by artists with a deep respect his unparalleled musicality: Shadow Huntaz, Puppetmastaz, Jason Forrest (aka Donna Summer), Math Head, Si Begg, Aaron Spectre, Mochipet, End, DJ Grandtheft, jazz trumpeter David Young, percussionist Bryce Beverlin II, and more. Venetian Snares + Leafcutter John both requested him to appear as a cellist on their albums and Peters is often in demand as a remixer, delivering unexpected, yet mind-blowing results.
