Matts influences include, Liam Howlett, Josh Wink, Dr Dre, Andy C, Alex Reece and Todd Terry
There are 2 of us, Ian Stanley and Matt Scott that make up M.I. Loki and we make beats, breaks, and bass.
No good story begins without a quick synopsis; we met on a hazy night in 1995, at Wild Times in Cambridge, though it wasn't until 2005 and a move to Sheffield that we began making tracks together. It began with a bootleg of Come Together by the Beatles, and continued with a joint love for sampling Zoolander, mini guns, Bill Duke and all things Chevy Chase. Some may say our music has never really evolved from there, but they probably listen to electro trash music and wear skinny jeans.
Having experimented with hip hop, house, DnB, and whatever else that we could place a beat underneath, it became apparent that the laws of breakbeat, or rather the lack of them, would allow us to bring all of our musical tastes to one table. Influenced more by the early days of the "breaks" genre where breakbeats were alive and reigned supreme, we set up Tricksta Recordings in May 2006. Since then we have developed and evolved our sound, playing with everything from a more organic sounding style of breakbeat music to dub influenced bleeps and squeaks.
