Matan Zohar (born 30 April 1990), better known by his stage name Mat Zo, is a Grammy-nominated British producer, composer and DJ. Zohar released his debut album, Damage Control, via the Anjunabeats and Astralwerks labels on 5 November 2013.

Life and career

The son of artist Israel Zohar, and half-brother of Israeli singer Alma Zohar, Matan Zohar was born in London in 1990. He was raised by his mother, Wendy Caron Zohar, a professional violinist who, with staunch musical ethos, nurtured Matan's early love of—and prodigious inclination toward—music. From age one to eleven, Zohar and his family lived in the city of Cleveland, Ohio, US. It was there at age 8 where his father presented young Zohar with a guitar as a gift. He returned at age 11 to London and continued pursuing his musical interests as a drummer and bassist as a member of a jazz and rock band respectively. However, Zohar became more interested in musical acts such as Daft Punk and the Chemical Brothers, and his musical inclinations shifted to those of electronic dance music and DJing.

Nocturnal Festival

Nocturnal Wonderland, formerly known as Nocturnal Festival, is a massive electronic music festival that has been steadily growing and brings the biggest names in music and dance to an audience of up to 50,000 musical enthusiasts.

History

Nocturnal Wonderland, for the first time in 2011, is a two-day event that used to occur in early September around Labor Day until 2009, when it was rescheduled to the last Saturday of September. There are usually 5 stages with a total of over 60 different artists performing throughout the two nights. The styles of music heard during the performance are vast and vary in range year to year. Every year there are artists from the trance, drum and bass, break beat, and house genres.

The first Nocturnal Wonderland was held in 1995. In its early years, Insomniac (the production crew responsible for Nocturnal Festival), did not have a steady revenue for this event and the location for the event had to change each year. One of its most famous locations was the Coachella Valley Indio Polo grounds. This is the same location where the now famous Coachella Music Festival is held. In 2002 (Nocturnal Wonderland could not be held because not enough revenue could be generated to secure the event), Nocturnal Wonderland returned to the National Orange Show in San Bernardino after having first taken place at that location in 1998. The Orange Show has been the location of Nocturnal from 2003 to the present except for 2007. During 2007, the event was held in Downtown Los Angeles.

Sound Collective

Sound Collective is a London-based professional music ensemble.

History

Sound Collective was formed in 2003 and is a home for classical musicians, hand-picked from the British orchestral, chamber and freelance scene.

Sometimes meeting as a chamber orchestra with conductor, but also formed as smaller chamber ensembles, they meet just a few times each year to create bespoke performance and education projects.

The guiding principles behind the group are excellence in performance through adequate rehearsal time, intelligent programming, a democratic ethos in both choice of repertoire and rehearsal approach, and a commitment to communication with their audiences.
