Matrix & Futurebound:

Since their very first collaboration in 2005 Matrix & Futurebound have been respected by fans and peers alike as an act who continuously showcase the very best in both musicality and technical ability. As Matrix & Futurebound, Jamie Quinn and Brendan Collins possess one of the most impressive track records in drum and bass history, with over 300 million Spotify streams, combining an impressive portfolio of dancefloor weapons alongside multiple consecutive Top 40 UK hits and legacy tracks such as ‘All I Know’, ‘Magnetic Eyes’, ‘Don’t Look Back’ and the legendary Silver certified ‘Control’.

Throughout their career Matrix & Futurebound have honed the highly sought-after formula of creating music which is commercially successful while keeping a tight hold on the much protected underground roots of drum and bass. Through tracklists of dancefloor bangers and rolling technical masterpieces their critically acclaimed LPs ‘Universal Truth’ (2007) and ‘Mystery Machine’ (2019) unquestionably display this innate ability to balance the tightrope of accessibility and authenticity.

As two of drum and bass’ pioneers, Matrix & Futurebound have remixed the likes of Oliver Heldens, Tinie Tempah, Jess Glynne, Eric Prydz, Tom Walker, Birdy Paloma Faith, Demi Lovato and drum and bass royalty Pendulum to name but a few. Their remix for Emeli Sande is no doubt an unadulterated club anthem which also made it to the BBC Radio 1 daytime A list. This culminated in a highly successful Live Lounge appearance where the duo performed ‘Breathing Underwater’ live with Emeli at Maida Vale and their remix closing out the London 2018 NYE firework display on BBC1.

Year after year Matrix and Futurebound are booked for the planet’s most prestigious festivals and venues including Creamfields, Rampage, EDC Las Vegas, Liquicity and Let It Roll to name but a few. With each show and every release we’re continually reminded of why this iconic act has gained such celebrated notoriety and revered longevity, and with the duo’s latest releases ‘Return To You’ & ‘You Don’t Have to Wait’, there’s every indication that their meteoric success rate is set to continue for years to come.

TREi:

Through a vast expedition designed by pushing the envelopes of drum and bass and carefully carving his name into the halls of the very genre itself, Trevor Linnell has been a foundational asset to dance music for over 13 years – and believe us when we say he’s just getting started.

Time and time again, his versatility and ability to interject his signature style into his every tune shines through a canon of releases including individual heavyweight classics such as “Seeds,” “Rebels” with Tali, “Empires,” and many more. Championing collaborations with high-profile artists such as The Upbeats, Futurebound, State Of Mind, and Concord Dawn, this maverick of a producer/DJ has showcased his nonconformist discography to anxious listeners all around the world. Successfully embarking on over 25 European tours spanning across 22 countries to date, stating that Trei’s eccentric approach to songwriting and his insatiable ability to galvanize a live setting is impressive would be an understatement.

Now, his energetic sets have seen stages at world-class festivals such as Rampage, Let It Roll, Mainframe, Fusion Festival, Rhythm & Alps, and so many more. With international untethered support from legendary acts such as Andy C, Friction, and Pendulum, it’s safe to say that his career’s achievements have transcended expectations. In an ever-changing world restricted by a lack of originality and regurgitated content, Trei, although achieving widespread recognition from the very beginning, has shown absolutely zero signs of stagnation.

Expect a highly-anticipated flurry of technical productions paralleled by an unforgivably-unique performance setting from this creative mind. His next chapter has only just begun.
