| About Metatron |
Hailing from Phoenix Arizona, Robert Cox “Metatron” began his life of music in early 1998. He had his first tastes of electronic music and instantly fell in love with the sound and the culture behind it. He began his DJ career shortly after. Signing up with Liquid Media Music in mid 2000, he began to really learn to understand the equipment and music theory in general. With the help of a few local legends such as Matty and Project23 he started his evolution into the sound that is the Metatron. He and Project23 formed a small collaboration called "The Living Library" in 2001. It consisted of the 2 Dj's, four turn tables, a laptop, a few midi controllers and an array of many different synth machines and toys. The Genre exploited was an Ambient/Down Tempo sound that utilized in his opinion some of most intelligently composed music in the world. This took his appreciation of music one step further.
In early 2005 he intergraded with Local Heroes "The Dirt Assasinz" (Crewmates: Rob Kwik, Matteo, Steve Kerr, Brook B, Yello, Niko, Omniphonix, and Shonie). Their wide range of different talents and Genre's could appeal to anyone with an appreciation for great music. From Breaks (all forms of Electro, Funky, Nu Skool, ect.), House, Drum and Bass/Jungle, and Hip Hop. The diversity of many different genres and the down to earth mentality of the crew itself made it a perfect match. They are consistently working and expanding to reach new heights. Here he feels at home and enjoys the Family Oriented crew.
In early 2006 he teamed up with his friend and crewmate Joseph Leason “Yello”. Starting off as a simple 2x4 set, the duo found a dynamic that could not be ignored. The two began to work together more often and discovered that they shared many of the same ideals when it came to music: understanding it, writing it, playing it, and their desire for success in doing what they love. The two made a pact to make it to the top and have been destroying dance floors ever since. Both have been featured on “This Week at Beatport” http://www.thisweekatbeatport.com and are currently working in the studio writing tracks and remixes for former Bassbin Twin Pete Smalls and his new SnapTrax label. The combined drive, experience, and appreciation for music, makes them an unstoppable force that you will be hearing for a long time to come.
"I’ve been burning these same boards
Getting bored and restless
I’ve got itchy feet
I’m gonna hit the dance floor
Gonna pave the way for a new and better me than I was today
Gonna laugh in face of death
Jump off a cliff like a fool
too busy staring at the sun but it’s fun to be someone else for a change of heart
Of mind of body and soul in time to the pulse of your blood and breath in the neck of the world and all that mother nature can hold and give and love and feel
Don’t you get my drift
Did you get the pack
Did you get the set
Did you get the joke
Did you get the outcome
My stuff’s bigger than your stuff
Sit back down
Try get your head together
Optimist, did you read that eye towers seizing every second more so every second burning bright lighting the road ahead stepping down the path of many feared
A tread beam lead by the higher mind who will find
That sometimes its best to leave the past behind
Why cry at the moon for what was lost
Too soon the things you didn’t do all the forgotten tunes
You gotta remember that everything you own ain’t everything you are
This is the third trip in the back of your car filled with memories flashing by like liquid sky
Like electric stars that define everything that we are
I’m getting hypnotized
I’ve come too far, I was trying too hard now everything keeps shifting in and out of time
Lets venture forth into the unknown
Heads bursting with light blazing through the uncharted streets write our names
fifty feet high in the minds of all the people we meet
Draw a Halo around your head where god looks down and blesses the genetics of red roof tiles, golden gates, emerald isles and the lands where the sun is slowly rising
Let’s dance tonight beneath the Milky Way
Some won’t make it back but that’s ok
This is a moment that can’t be missed so it’s worth the risk
Touching the bullets of a silicone century
Nothing now can sully the sound of a drummers beating
the humidity from the sky
For the love
For the beat of the rush of future is ours
Its coming
The future is bright." -Infusion "Daylight Hours"
