Adrian Matos marks his Piston Recordings debut with a wonderful 
three track EP titled A Brief Touch Of Happiness. With over 7 
years DJing around the most important electronic events in his 
country, Adrian Matos became one of the residents at All The 
Toys, which is owned by influential DJ, Ordonez. This allowed 
Adrian to share the booth with some of the best jocks around the 
world. In 2016 he ventures into the field of musical production 
giving light to his own tracks, where he is able to show his 
principal influences and his own style came alive. As the result 
of his hard work, he won the New Producers contest, organized by 
RotoFest music festival, publishing three of his tracks on the 
Mexican record label Manzanita Shit. Passionate about music in 
all areas and genres, Adrian's staging is characterized by 
showing the audience a variety of elegant, dark and explosive 
sounds in every single set. Focussing mainly in music production 
and sound exploration, Adrian works every day to develop his own 
sound, a sound that identifies himself.

A Brief Touch Of Happiness opens the EP, delivering a solid 
slice of deep house that will captivate. Nice, punchy kick drums 
are joined by a flurry of crispy hats, sharp claps and 
percussions, creating a smooth, rhythmic flow. A deep, droning 
bassline dominates the low end as cool, pitching vocal run 
through the groove. Dynamic FX add texture and depth as the 
groove takes hold, making this an absolute must have.

I Know What's Going On continues the deeper theme, taking use 
further into the rabbit hole with a sublime workout. Again, we 
see a solid drum structure which delivers tight rhythms that 
force you to move. A much more hypnotic affair, repetitive keys 
mesmerize as distant voices pique the interest. The bassline is 
wonderfully fluid as it pushes its lushness into every aspect of 
the groove. A real mover here, that will not disappoint.

Rehab In Japan rounds up the EP, taking us on a more organic 
route. Muted drums open the track, alongside a pulsing bass and 
wispy pads. The track feels delicately poised and at the same 
time, it fully engages, moving your feet to the sublime groove. 
Raw elements meet more refined, musical pieces, combining 
effortlessly into a coherent, groovy mover. A beautifully 
crafted slice that is not to be missed.
