Making Monday a double day for picks, Disco Matt heads over to Europe to find both his “Pick Of The Day” & his “Podcast of The Week” choices, landing on Berlin & the brilliant beats of DJ/Producer Eduardo De La Torre, his “On The Mix” April podcast packed with uplifting vocal tech, progressive & tribal tunes, so one definitely for the collection, download/stream links a banner selection away opposite, or an image click below, while we share, in extract form, our biography on this vivacious Venezuelan beneath.

 


 

“….Of Venezuelan persuasion equals Eduardo De La Torre, a proud product of this South American country, although a large chunk of his life has been spent in Europe, bouncing between Spain, Germany, Holland & UK ,London the capital being the place we first met a befriended our fellow Sagittarian and where his D.J’ing career took a huge leap, his exposure to big brand “Matinee Group UK” very much setting a course in his career that would lead him to laying his hat in Berlin….”

 

“…And it is in the German capital where Edu has really come into his own, the more relaxed feel of the city’s scene allowing him to flex his creative muscles much better than here in London, the firm foundation of a residency with Berlin’s Connection club the platform that allows Mr De La Torre to tour across Europe, Moscow a regular feature of his activity, while Ibiza, Cologne, Hamburg, Malta, Copenhagen, Mälmo, Milan, Amsterdam, of course, back to London feature, here being where he has played for clubs & events including A:M, As One, Beyond & Lovechild…”

 

“….Edu is also involved in a music production partnership with Berliner musician Sven Braun, giving birth to No-Scene Studios, and releasing their tracks on Festibalazo Records Belgium. That said, Berlin & Germany is his rock, as speaking the language fluently, having studied electronic music production in the city & also being intrinsically involved in the annual Salvation Berlin party, means he feels right at home here, Edu completely in the thick of it all…..”

 

“….But his talents behind the decks have also extended to stints on radio shows, his stay in Spain spurting his love for this medium, while beaming the Edu sounds through Radios in spain and online (via Berlin naturally), and with a weekly radio show every saturday from 11 till midnight ( German time) in PURE FM (Berlin´s Dance Radio….”

About discomatt

The History........................................................Created in 2008 after a short period of blogging under his real name, the pseudonym, “Disco Matt”, was born on the back of a reputation for being London’s original party boy having partied and clubbed across the London gay scene since in mid 1990’s.........................................................Through his series of blogs via individual blogging pages which soon morphed into a full blown website (http://discomatt.com), Disco Matt established himself as an independent journalist come columnist who quickly gained a reputation for supporting & promoting one of the world’s most prolific clubbing scenes. He previewed, reviewed & recommended London gay clubs, as well as the diverse gay/metrosexual London club/bar culture, linking to & reviewing the scene top D.J.’s and generally covering the gay scene including international gay events....................................................Regularly reporting on the top events across the scene, Disco Matt’s reviews, over the years, developed a strong following, not just by clubbers, D.J’s, promoters, music producers & scene faces, but people far and wide that were looking for an insight to the incredible scene that was London. He also previewed upcoming events that signalled, either a major change or update of existing clubs, new ventures on the gAylist/metrosexual scene, or where he considered events that deserved more comprehensive coverage to that provided in other posts.............................................However, having pretty much reached the top of his game in his chosen specific field, due to a number of personal predicaments, challenges & changes in his life priorities, Disco Matt parked his writing and operation in February 2014. While the burning desire to continue remained, what this much needed period of inactivity did provide was the time & space to re-think & re-focus his activities on a broader spectrum of media and entertainment............................................................So, following this long two year lay-off, he built up the foundations for this diversification into the areas of film, theatre, radio & television where his reviewing, recommending & reporting was to be replicated & resurrected, also pointing his promotions through more visuals & video's linked to all these areas along with his core activities and passions ................................................................................The Present....................................After another (shorter) period of lay-off from mid 2016, a life changing event reignited his passion and early into 2017, Disco Matt has delivered on his promise for a new, more modern look to his website, shedding the old & tired skin in favour of something far more in keeping with the times and with his blogging roots. And he has waived a fond farewell to his clubbing days, this having also been ditched from his site & activity, rather now just focussing on the genres of film, theatre, radio, television, video and of course, music, in so doing, aiming to broaden his appeal to a much wider audience interested in the latest most cutting edge areas of media & entertainment.............................................................................His aim is to be highly regarded across the industry for his writing in these fields and ultimately become a full time critic in film &/or theatre.
