ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
There rarely is a musician to be seen, who feels home in more than just one musical genre the way Matthias Vogt does. Who else can claim himself being booked in the hottest clubs around the globe and additionally being respected as a brilliant jazz musician at the same time? Particularly in producing electronic music, Vogt is able to bring his experience as a jazz-musician to account in a way that surely is unique in contemporary house-music.

Vogt's music has been released on handpicked labels: he is working with mighty Chicago based Large Music, UK imprint Urbantorque, Paris deepest Komplex de Deep, New York's Saw Recordings, which is the label of house-legends Satoshi Tomiie and Hector Romero, plus Frankfurt's finest Polytone Records and Fred Everything's San Francisco based Lazy Days Recordings. Matthias tracks consistently receive amazing feedback of big name dj's like Jimpster, Joris Voorn, Sven Va"th, Paul Woolford, Laurent Garnier, Josh Wink or Karotte. A DJ since the early nineties, Matthias experienced dance music's fast growing and constantly altering change as a part of Frankfurt's vital club scene. Vogt since many years is playing regurlarly at Sven Va"th’s Cocoonclub. He has also played gigs at clubs such as The End in London, Club 11 Amsterdam, Cielo New York, Arma 17 in Moscow. Furthermore, he has done plenty of dj-gigs in many countries around the world like Japan, Taiwan, Australia, Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Hungary or Latvia.

Matthias is founder and one half of the highly acclaimed duo Motorcitysoul. Under the Motorcitysoul moniker they released several groundbreaking records on highly acclaimed house imprints like Freerange, Simple, Aus Music and of course Stir 15 & Lofi-Stereo, the labels of his Motorcitysoul partner Christian „C-Rock“ Rindermann.

Together with Ian Pooley, who is without a doubt one of Germany's most influential house producers of all time, Vogt forms M.V.I.P.- another very promising cooperation (Aviator EP / Pooled). Their second EP will be released in early 2012 on Lazy Days.

In his second life, Vogt is a trained musician... But that's a complety other story, simply check out his unique project [re:jazz], plus his Matthias Vogt Trio! He did nine Jazz Studio albums with these projects and worked with artists like Nils Petter Molvaer, Bugge Wesselthoft, Till Bro"nner, Viktoria Tostoy and many more.

Both working as a jazz pianist and being a dj/producer, Matthias Vogt continues to bring together the best of both worlds and creating his very own style and music.
