JUST BE has held many guises in his journey through electronic music. Launching his career as Matthew B in the midst of the UK acid house explosion, his identity and sound has undertaken many a metamorphosis, through Bushwacka!, The End Soundsystem, Layo and Bushwacka! to settle for the meantime on JUST BE. His continual evolution, thirst for new sounds and epic touring schedule has ingrained his many identities across the international club scene. JUST BE’s roots grew out of the underground warehouse parties and illegal outdoor raves that shook the foundations of the establishment, quite literally, and gave inspiration to a new generation of ravers. This anarchic environment gave JUST BE total creative freedom, an ethos that continues to this day in his music, always pushing the boundaries of House, Breakbeat, Techno, Downtempo and Ambient. Music was always going to be the only career for JUST BE, from playing percussion in the London School Symphony Orchestra, performing at the Royal Festival Hall and Barbican centre amongst others. He was subsequently swept up by the electronic revolution, an environment in which he really thrived. His output has been phenomenal with six artist albums and a seventh due this year, he has produced over 120 remixes, and 160 tracks for labels such as XL Recordings, End Recordings and his own labels Olmeto, Plank and Oblong. JUST BE has an exciting 2012 lined up, with releases signed, sealed and delivered on Get Pysical, Maison D'etre, Plus 8, and Intec Digital, gigs at some of the best clubs and festivals on the circuit, and a new collaboration with Safehouse Management - the team behind some of the largest DJs and events in the world!
