The Edmonton Muse May 2018 | Page 27

His music is just as eclectic as he is

and ranges vastly. It is full of complex

track overlays, sick, tricky rhythms and

it is intricately captivating.

One track will have you enchanted in

trance ambiance, next you'll fly into a

drum and bass track with complex beats

and pop culture references, then you'll

journey on to a video game-esque

song and end with some chill house

blends.

Matthew's music is under the name

WNY which is actually the short form

of Winnie the Shit, which in my books is

absolutely hilarious and awesome.

"I started off with Winnie The Shit to put

this humorous spin on it but then I

started to have people come up to be

and be like, 'Oh yeah, I like this man,

it's like, ironically bad.', and then I

realized it wasn't coming across the

way I wanted it to. So I put my album

up on a marketing and advertising

forum and WNY was one of the

suggestions.

I feel like I come up with all this stuff and

create so much excitement around it, then

I mess with it from all sides and then it

just confuses everybody. I don't know why I can't just stick with one thing, that's just what I do!"
