Matthew Bandy has been experimenting with electronic music for the past 9 years as a DJ, producer, live performer, and label manager. Originally born in Flint MI, he remembers spending much of his early childhood banging objects together listening to new sounds, going through his parents¹ records and old 45¹s on his Fisher Price turntable, and trying to dance like Michael Jackson. He credits most of his influences through Jazz, Hip‑Hop, Rock, Soul, Punk, the Fender Rhodes, percussion, mix‑tapes, and sounds from Detroit, Chicago, New York, and the West Coast.

As a producer and live act Matthew created the moniker of «Deep House Souldiers» with partner and close friend Joel Jackson. DHS is a concept that expresses the two¹s ideas and goals through their music. Now working on a few solo projects, Matthew has also created Limestone Recordings; a platform for his work as well as others who feel passionate about the art they create. He doesn¹t always write music to be understood on the dance floor but always has a concept in mind. His style can be described as music with concept and soul; a phrase he has also based his label after. As Matthew continues to DJ, work on new projects, and travel, he keeps a simple goal in mind, «to touch people through music the way music has touched me.»
