moldover
  • Years Active: 2000s
  • Genre: Rock & Alternative

Matt Moldover grew up a child of MTV and pop culture in Rockville, MD. But he never looked back after discovering computers, programming, jazz, and electronic music while studying guitar at Boston's Berklee College of Music, and before long Matt Moldover had become Moldover the mashup king, DJ, and experimental guitarist. Based in New York City, Moldover turned up all over town as an accompanist and DJ, often mixing live remixing and sample manipulation in a style he called "remashing." Since he didn't own the copyrights to so much of his source material, it was a little difficult for Moldover to release his remashes on disc, for purchase. But as of November 2005 he'd posted live mixes on his website, was planning an original soundtrack to a video game, and was supporting N.Y.C.-area singer/songwriter Sarah Fimm on guitar. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi
