Matt Envy & Frooty are an up-and-coming UK Hardcore DJ/Production duo from the Midlands, UK.
The two have been booked at a number of well respected events such as: Ravers Reunited, Natural Born Ravers, Deciples of Hardcore, Energized, Universal Hardcore, True 2 Beats, Bounce2This, Vibealite, Atomic, Bazooka, Intrusion, Nemesis, Missing in Manchester, Ravers Forever, Nozstock Festival and Spunky (where they hold a residency).
Matt Envy & Frooty met in 2003, and have been working together ever since. After producing a considerable catalogue of tracks, in March 2008 they launched their own record label called "Groove Control Digital" named after the record shop that Frooty was running at the time. The label achieved good success in a short space of time, with tracks from the label topping the IMO Download charts.
Around the same time, the two paired up as a back-to-back DJ duo. To stand out from the crowd, they began playing upfront sets featuring their own material almost exclusively, a format which they have maintained to this day.
In July 2008 Matt Envy & Frooty released their first artist album entitled "Take Control" which featured 16 tracks produced and mixed by themselves. This was highly supported by fans in their local area, and spurred them to push for a bigger release for their next album project. The release also caught the attention of established DJ, Bubble.
In May 2009, volume one of Matt Envy & Frooty's album series "This Is Our Core" was released on CD & Free Download. This was well received by the scene & gained them a good reputation, as well as many more fans. This album featured collaborations with vocalist Leah K, the legendary MC Scratch Master Techno and DJ Bubble. Following the release, Matt Envy & Frooty were signed to Bubble's label, JB Recordings.
Since signing to JB Recordings, the pair have seen a considerable increase popularity, receiving many new DJ bookings and a much larger, rapidly expanding fan-base. They have also been awarded the title of Best Hardcore DJs at Spunky's Golden Glowsticks awards.
With all this behind them, Matt Envy & Frooty are looking forward to a bright 2010, with the release of "This Is Our Core 2" scheduled for the summer. The album will feature collaborations with some of the UK Hardcore scene's best new talent, as well as some more established artists, such as: vocalists Carly Payne & Leah K, DJs Bubble,
Paul Manx and Hitman, and MCs Gazy J, Riko and Ricochet.
With a burning desire to succeed Matt Envy & Frooty are definitely the Hardcore duo to look out for in the future! Show less
