SOLUS is the production alias of Matt Coogan. He began his journey with Upstairs Recordings in 2002 with the track 'Red Lights' on the acclaimed Blue Light One Compilation. A largely self-taught mixer/recorder who's beginnings trace back to jamming in rock, funk, and improv bands around the Philadelphia area. He turned to the sounds and structures of contemporary based electronic music in the late 90s to achieve autonomous expression. Solus' music is strummed and recorded out of a home base studio on a number of instruments, including guitar, sampler, drums, and wurlitzer. He exploits modern technology to make compositions inspired by past styles, such as 70s funk, dub, rock, hiphop, and the sound of the acoustic guitar. On Lights In the Valley Matt fuses songwriting with beats progressions and melodies against synthetic textures and tech ostinatos.
