Platinum Award winning engineer and music producer Matt Warren’s new release “Music Is My Life” was released in October of 2018 and has mowed a path of success to place it on that platinum status for sure.
Warren has been a DJ for more than forty years and a producer since early 1984. His debut single “Rock The Nation” was released in 1984 and inspired him to cofound Sunset Records in 1985. In 1987 he resigned from Sunset Records and founded AKA Dance Music where he released their first single “Bang The Box” that sold over 50,000 copies. “Bang The Box” was just the first of seven singles released between 1987 and 1988, by then his label was well known to all.
Matt went on to continue writing, mixing, arranging, and producing a huge list of various artists and bands as well as collaborating on several albums. Working as a producer and mixing/remixing engineer had placed his own work on hold until he was reunited with Pepper Gomez, better known in house music as, MyMy Lady G, a colleague who has Wake Up! Music label.

“Music Is My Life” has set Mark Warrens comeback into motion and is the latest ground breaking new album for Nu-House and will be a shoe in for dance music history.
“This is my first release of my own music in ten years. I’ve been producing, engineering and remixing for others, but have not focused on my creative needs for a long time. I felt like I wanted to do a record that reflects my journey as both a musician and DJ. I really wanted to give that old school feel to the songs..I guess what I mean is to record “real music” with live instruments and arrangements…which are kind of a homage of all the music I grew up listening to.” ~Matt Warren~

Love Thee”. It’s a surefire floor-filler featuring a vocal tour
de force from legendary house diva, Pepper Gomez. She returns on a
triumvirate of anthemic tracks, adding a coquettish vocal on “Catch
Me If You Can” and a sultry sounding vocal on the remake of “The

the Matt Warren composition, “Going Deeper” and “Musica
