Introducing Marc Matthews

UK-based artist and producer Marc Matthews has an enviable way of combining modern music technology and vintage analog synths to produce sonic landscapes that evoke retro nostalgia. With a passion for songwriting running through his veins from an early age, Marc’s ambient and brooding synthwave and lush guest vocals expose a deep love of 80s nostalgia and classic movie soundtracks.

In addition to his own artistry, Marc helps and supports synth music artists with a friendly and collaborative service that includes mixing (including free mastering) and mastering via his company Synth Music Mastering.

music mastering, podcasting, and producing, oh my!

We are hot on the heels of Marc’s recent release “You and I”, and just in time to meet the man behind the mix! With numerous production credits to his name, Marc brings us “You and I”, a song which he wrote and produced, and which is his first single of 2022. It was released by Retro Reverb Records and precedes his debut EP which will be out in the summer of 2022.

“The song ‘You and I’ is a modern synthpop song that retains the warmth and vibe of classic 80s synth ballads, coupled with modern pop vocals and production. It’s a synthpop ballad with a dark edge that shines a light on the theme of control within a relationship and the loss and void left by it. ‘You and I’ is for fans of artists like Nina, Haim, Halsey and Wolf Alice.”
