Live @ The House Of Ill Repute
Matthew Hinman’s musical career started at the tender age of 13 years old in NY. Having been raised on classic rock and disco, Matthew was always looking to continuously expand his musical boundaries. Having befriended a schoolmate who was into heavier music such as SOD, Agnostic Front, and Slayer, Matthew was hooked on extreme music. It wasn't until the winter in late 1989 that Matthew attended his first "Techno" party in which Frankie Bones and the legendary Kraftwerk. Coming from an upbringing of Disco, Matthew was also now hooked on the sound of Electronica. Matthew was also fortunate enough to have a neighbor who owned a sound company and allowed Matthew and friends to help him when hip hop shows would come to town. While working with acts like Public Enemy, 3rd Bass and Tribe Called Quest, Matthew was really bitten by the bug to become a bigger player in the production of live shows and parties.
