Funkin Matt is rewriting memories on his new single, “Perfect Dark.”
Released today via Oliver Heldens’ Heldeep Records, the track marks the penultimate chapter of the Norwegian producer’s Nostalgia EP, a project rooted in the wonder of the 1990s and 2000s. Evocative and unapologetically rhythmic, the track transforms those nostalgic echoes into a storm of energy built for 2025 dancefloors.
Matt pushes his artistic identity into new territory while maintaining a pulse that club veterans and new ravers alike will find magnetic. While his production leans into the textures of garage, it’s polished through a futuristic lens.
“This track blends my love for Afro-house music with huge synths,” he explains. “It’s heavily rhythm-focused, where every percussion hit matters.”
Matt additionally cites a post-festival creative rush as the catalyst behind his new EP.
“After returning from Shambhala, an incredible festival nestled deep in the Canadian woods, I found myself in an inspired creative flow… it felt surreal, like a dream or a live movie set,” he recalled.
