HoS 012: Killawatt - You Need To Release For People To Hear It, The Journey From Validation To Following Your Own Path | Home Of Sound - a podcast by Home Of Sound

Matt, in art Killawatt, is a longstanding producer and DJ, who has an eclectic portfolio of releases and music. He started getting into old school breaks several years before eventually embracing techno as well, landing on a signature style that makes his music unique.

Killawatt approaches music-making with an open mind in order to keep creativity as a priority. His consistent release schedule has seen him appearing on labels such as Osiris and 47 quite often and he will soon release on his own imprint as well.

In this chat, we get into his musical roots from the old school parties he used to go to, his take on life and keeping a balance with other jobs outside of music. We also talk about how living away from big cities allows you to look at things differently. We also get a glimpse of his future plans to take up an engineering degree, because he feels the need to contribute to society in more ways than only through his music.

As a prolific and well-appreciated producer of a niche genre, Matt also reminds us that without getting your music out there, there is no way people can hear (let alone like) what we create.
