This is what I love from Track submissions, every each of them has something interesting. Sometimes there are not for what I want to share in music to open another door, sometimes I love them but it’s hard to include it and sometimes they just surprise you like this week’s track.
Describe by Matt on his submission like this:
“This song kind of has an other-worldly sort of sound - definitely fits in with the playlist theme. Hope you enjoy.”
That was not a good sign for me at first sight, but! The bit “fits in with the playlist theme” got me thinking “Did he actually got the idea of my playlist? I need to listen to his music now”. So, well done Matt. Very well done. Top hat salute for you!
A strings beginning making a nice 90’s atmosphere and the catchy phrase “nightclubbing - that’s what we always do” completely transporting us to the 70’s rock anthem by Argent (also British band) “God Gave Rock n Roll”, makes this song a big surprise and a great song to be sang every night out.
Very well use of the resources, strings not all the time, background voices giving the incredible power to the chorus but also nice support at some verses. I really love when on the mix you can identify every “ingredient”, appreciate them not being overused and enjoy the combination of techniques.
As this is becoming a habit, this week I share the interview I had with Matt so you can know more about him and his band.
Enjoy this week and Ladies and Gentlemen, Matt Edible & the Obtuse Angels!

About the curator - Rodrigo Medrano
At a very early age, music had an incredible impact on Rodrigo’s life. He was never able to listen to lullaby songs; instead he was served Guns n’ Roses and Aerosmith for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
At the age of 12, he became a melomaniac, collecting albums, EP’s, recording sessions, and researching every kind of genre. All this helped him to get his first job at a recording studio where he realized his life would forever revolve around sound and music.
Working on cruise ships as First Audio Technician allowed him to let loose his passion and expand his knowledge on psychoacoustics, eventually promoted up to being in charge of sound for the hit broadway shows: Rock of Ages and Burn The Floor.
His music library will never stop growing as his melomania will get worse and worse.
