'A piano in the hands of a gifted child can result in genius later on. Lagergren - Matoma's birth name - was exposed to classical music at an early age. The anticipated release of Cubase 8 Pro, as used by modern producers, made the sound of Matoma original. The digital audio workstation he mastered would create a new sound and something magical when performed live.'
'The ability to command a piano, a wind section, symphonic instruments and rock guitars paves the way for an endless stream of inspiration. These inspirations lead Matoma to work with his industry's top performers. He remastered a track by Ja Rule that featured an unreleased voice recording of the late, great Notorious B.I.G. The song would gain just as much attention in the US as it did in the producer's own Norway. Sweden, New Zealand and Denmark welcomed the rap ensemble and the infectious beat it had thumping behind each lyric. Fans are now wondering about what Matoma might achieve next. The music industry is hunting down the producer because Matoma creates musical textures and shades that bring out the best of any live or studio recording.'
'Timing is a central factor to getting Matoma tickets when he's in town, but as the largest marketplace for show tickets, StubHub has you covered. The seats listed at StubHub is where millions of happy fans begin, and it's where you'll find the exact seat location you want, dates you prefer and venues closest to you.'

Matoma would have little to perform without his collaborations. The producer is a master at networking; he works with the industry's most-sought-after names. His work with Enrique Iglesias led to the recreation of Bailando. Matoma was granted studio access to rapper Eminem for a remix hit of the single Business. All Night led The Vamps into greater acclaim with its audience, and Matoma made the mix of that song. Over his short career, he's gained the rights to music by Hedgaard, Marit Larsen, Marlon Roudette and
Snoop Dogg
