Matteo Ruzzon, who resides in Queens, New York, is a DJ and producer better known as Madteo. The breadth of influences crammed into his productions is only matched by the far-reaching range of genres which make up his selections as a DJ, melding a hazy array of hip-hop, soul, disco, house & techno influences with startling coherence. His sounds are more streetwise than avant-garde—is the result of an unusual journey, both musically and personally. Having grown up in the Veneto region of Italy, as a teenager Ruzzon went on a student exchange to Pitzer College in Claremont, California—"it was like Animal House but with an international flavor"—where he discovered dub and reggae, which formed the foundation for his taste.
