Matt 'DJ Mattnifique' Robinson has been deep in the music scene for decades. He began playing music in high school becoming a local legendary Malibu beach band, The Barking Spiders. He established himself as a staple in the DJ world running his own joint, Funky Reggae in Los Angeles in the 80's. He went on to high profile gigs as the A&R guy at Capitol and Island Records. He was the music supervisor of Quincy Jones' Vibe TV, hiring all the big name talent in hip-hop & soul during that stint in the 90's. As the son of the original Gordon on Sesame Street, Matt has been around high profile music legends for many years. At 10 years old, he met Michael Jackson backstage prior to one of the Jacksons' shows. Stevie Wonder came to check out Matt spinning at his club, Funky Reggae, and telling a nervous Matt to 'just play what you play'. He's got such a rich take on music and you won't find a more original and sweet man. Great having him in the studio.
