    Mat Zo & Olan release live version of ‘Problems’

    Mat Zo & Olan release a special live version of “Problems,” which is currently available to stream/download via Anjunabeats.

    Mat Zo feat. Olan – Problems (Live Version)

    With indie vibes and euphoric melodies, Mat Zo’s live version of “Problems” showcases the artist’s eclectic range as a performer. Taken from his much-lauded artist album Illusion Of Depth, “Problems” live version sees Zo team-up with Atlanta-based musician, vocalist, and producer Olan. Olan has worked with Zo in the past as she lent her vocals to several other album tracks including “Colours” and “Paralysis.”

    “A big part of the conception of the album came from working with Olan. She’s a highly skilled singer, songwriter, and producer and we’ve known each other for years. We had been in the studio working on a bunch of material before this, and that helped us grow a common musical identity. When it came to writing this album we were already comfortable with each other. This allowed the songs on the album, to be honest, opposed to a bunch of toplines plastered on top of already formed tracks. Every song we wrote together is personal, sincere, and holds a lot of meaning for both of us.”

    Mat Zo

    Released last October, Illusion Of Depth included a diverse mix of sounds with the brash “In Media Res” to the techno release “The Next Chapter” featuring legendary Jungle/DnB MC, GQ.  Zo also sprinkled in some French filter house with “Love Songs.”

    Grammy-nominated Electronic Dance Music artist Mat Zo broke onto the scene in 2008 and has been trailblazing the industry ever since.  He is known for releasing the Anjunabeats classics, “The Lost” and “Synapse Dynamics” followed by the likes of “Superman,” “The Sky,” and ‘Rebound’ (with Arty). Always pushing the envelope with his sound, he has garnered support from  Pete Tong, Axwell, and Armin van Buuren to name a few.  For additional information on Mat Zo, please visit his official website.

    Mat Zo announces ‘Colours’ featuring Olan

    Grammy-nominated producer Mat Zo announced the release of “Colours” feat. Olan, which is currently available to stream and download via Anjunabeats here.

    “Colours” marks the artist’s fourth single announcement, which is scheduled to be featured on his forthcoming, highly-anticipated album, Illusion of Depth. The track sees Mat team up again with the Atlanta-based musician Luzana Flores, who records as Olan. The artist previously announced the releases, “The Next Chapter,” “Love Songs,” and “Problems” which are scheduled to also be released on the album.  Fans can check-out a live studio session of “Problems” below.

    Mat Zo – Problems (Live Session)

    “‘Problems’ started as a loop inspired by some old Foster the People songs. Mat directed the arrangement to a really cool place with more contrast and country-pop elements I wasn’t used to but really enjoyed…The lyrics were about this girl I was seeing at the time and my appreciation for feeling understood by someone in a romantic sense that really came out of the blue. That relationship ended very shortly after, but listening back to the song now feels good. I think it’s cool to have a rare but tangible expression of trust in someone that’s playful and bubbly.”

    Illusion of Depth will be released on Anjunabeats on October 9, with exclusive CD and vinyl bundles available to pre-order via the Anjuna Music Store. Pre-save Illusion Of Depth here 

    Mat Zo broke onto the scene in 2008 and is known for tracks off of Anjunabeats including: “Superman,” “The Sky,” and “Rebound” (with Arty), which earned him main-stage airplay and spins from the likes of Pete Tong, Axwell, and Armin van Buuren. His track “Easy” with Porter Robinson took Zo to the mainstream masses and earned him a Grammy nomination for Best Dance / Electronic recording.
