    Mat Zo talks the 'No Words EP', his move to Los Angeles and shares some thoughts on trance music.
    Mr Damage Control is back. Responsible for one of the labels iconic albums and countless catalogue classics including ‘Easy’, ‘Superman’ and ‘Rebound’, Mat Zo returns home to Anjunabeats with the ‘No Words’ EP.
    One of the most innovative artists over the labels 18 years, Zo joined the Anjunafamily at the age of 17. A series of revolutionary releases followed, rewriting the rulebook on trance sound design and groove. While the BPM decreased, there was a tenacity and energy to the likes of ‘Synapse Dynamics’ and ‘The Lost’ that felt timeless. As dance music was given a festival flavour, Mat was at the forefront with the likes of ‘Superman’ and ‘Rebound’ (alongside Arty).
    2013 saw the release of his debut artist album ‘Damage Control’. A showcase for his eclectic songwriting and sampling skills, it received a Grammy nomination for Best Dance / Electronic Album that year, while his collaboration with Porter Robinson, ‘Easy’, hit the U.K. top 40.
    In recent years Zo has pushed his avant-garde production skills to the max, including another critically acclaimed LP in ‘Self Assemble’, a return to his MRSA drum and bass alias, and nurturing the next generation of talent via his Mad Zoo imprint.
    His return to Anjunabeats is yet another bold statement; 3 genre straddling tracks that bring together musical influences from around the world. A summer favourite from Above & Beyond’s DJ sets, ‘Meaning Lost All Words’ has the french house sensibility that has always featured in Zo’s work. ‘Says Without Going’ has hints of classic tech-trance, while ‘See It When I Believe It’ is yet another modern tongue in cheek twist on the trance formula.
    Mat Zo ‘No Words’ EP is available to download and stream on Anjunabeats now.

    absolutely agree with u that Trance can be a variation of emotions but , Matan the recent Trance and Progressive scene is incredible how is growing now, there are so many fantastic talents like Craig Connelly, Ciaran McAuley, Factor B or Will Atkinson, Grum and Ilan Bluestone, Davey Asprey etc etc. They are completely changing Trance sound with New Epic productions. Trance now is in the new Gold era from 2016-17. Probably is for this reason you are in Trance again? Maybe?
    Anyway i think you are one of the best in the world, so i'm fucking happy you're back man. Can't really wait what can you bring to us

    Hmmm... I find that the title is, at least, inaccurate. The video has 2:36m of length and at no point he talks specifically abouf his new ep. If it weren't for the snippets of the new tracks playing in the background, this video could've been used to promote any other EP or even Mat himself. With that being said tho, mad props to Mat for bringing, once again, the goods!

    I totally agree with what he says about trance music. This is why Mat Zo is my favourite composer. He is so right, this cloying pathetic trance which tries to be the 'biggest thing ever' etc. is so shit. I think perfect example of Mat Zo's genius of trance is his song 'YoYo Ma', this is the demonstration of his 'variations, not just happy/sad' etc.
