Recorded in London, Oxford and South Africa with songs written across the globe, the album blends the typical Mattafix sound with a new outlook provided by the incredible experiences of their last two years. The first single, entitled ‘Living’, is set for release on the 22nd of October. The album, entitled ‘Rhythm & Hymns’, will be released on November 12th.
The video for ‘Living’ was shot in Eastern Chad on the border with Darfur. Mattafix, in conjunction with Save Darfur and Crisis Action, are hoping that the video will raise awareness of the struggle in Darfur and Eastern Chad. (Read Marlon’s article in the diary section of this website ‘Far From Over – Darfur’. Also check out pictures from the shoot in the photo section).
Be sure to check out our forthcoming tour dates in the news section of this website as well. Come out and see Mattafix play in a town near you.
The Mattafix boys are extremely proud of this second effort and quietly confident that ‘Rhythm & Hymns’ will make an impact on the soundscape of 2007/2008. Many incredible musicians, producers and mix engineers have been involved with this project and Mattafix would like to thank them for their efforts and positivity. We would also like to thank the Mattafix fans and well-wishers for waiting patiently for us to get our act together with this record!
