LINES & SHAPES: EXPANDED EDITION
Coming in November!
Doing some final tweaks for the "Lines & Shapes" remastered and expanded edition. It will be a two parter released simultaneously... and yes, it will be a total of 40 tracks. Besides the original 14 album tracks, it will come with alternate NR mixes, the bonus non-album tracks that were spread across the "Oh No!," "Disco Bustin'," & "Rock The Beat" EPs, along with even more demos recorded during this period. Dug deep through the vault for this one to make it truly special and a nice representation of this era from 2006-2010. There's even more music that I will release in the near future.
wow, discovered some people posted older material from me on YouTube!
dat's some back in 2003 shit right derr...

(some guy from Poland uploaded this and added a half naked slutty chick all wet and making out with the floor?...
i contacted him just to see where he got the tracks from since it was never really released anywhere. he said that he had the track for years and loved it so much that he uploaded it on YT... but he doesn't even know how he got it. he proceeded to flip out that he was actually contacted by Neorev and how he was going to tell all of his friends about it. found his excitement and the whole situation funny because he was going to brag to his friend about our encounter yet i'm not even that major anywhere lol)

"Long Island’s Neorev, aka Michael Matteo, embodies the epitome of what electronic dance music should be, i.e., music first and foremost, not just endless, insidious thumping. The fact is, the tracks on Lines & Shapes are actual songs with structure and changes, not just squibbles and squeaks over a 4/4 bass drum.
Lines & Shapes opens with “Oh No!”, an aggressive, almost industrial track recalling Lords of Acid or perhaps even My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult. Things change on “Force,” an Arabesque drum & bass trope. From here the tracks continue to demand attention while never stooping to the typical boring phrases and clichés expectant of electronic dance music. Several tracks, “The Stars Above Us,” “No Turning Back” and “Another Cloudy Day” even take on a particularly Krautrockian tone, eschewing the beat in favor of form and feeling, like Kluster or something.
In a style as bland as modern dance music, it’s quite refreshing to hear a collection of songs with some thought behind them. EDM doesn’t need to be boring, it just tends to be that way. We need more Neorevs to teach us otherwise."
-Chuck Foster (Big Takeover Magazine)

Here's quite a flattering review of my latest release, the WILDFIRE EP...
The first question that comes to mind when listening to a new Neorev release is, “How in the hell does Michael Matteo keep getting better?” With his “Wildfire” EP, he not only brings us some stellar originals, but also provides enough worthy remixes and collaborations to present an album’s worth of his best material to date.
The opening title track is a perfectly wicked dubstep tune inspired by the explosives on Game of Thrones. “Don’t Let ‘Em Get You Down,” an infectious bit of neo-disco follows, incorporating elements of Kraftwerk and dance industrial to the regiment. On “No Control,” Matteo truly steps outside the framework of electronic dance music to make a masterful electro-punk hybrid that is possibly his best track to date. “Throttle” recalls Superstar DJ Keoki, while “Better” comes across as the relaxing intro or middle to a jungle track without the drum and bass madness, which, by the way, is in full effect on the phenomenal remix of “Hard Style” by Noise Generator. “Prune Juice,” “Knot Rot” and “Ruff, Rugged, ‘N Raw,” collaborations with various rappers, represent hip-hop, and the closing “Live at the [i]electro-music Festival” presents a powerful near-35-minute live set that proves that Matteo can be as exciting outside of the studio as he is in it.
It’s rare to find an artist that evolves so beautifully as Neorev has over the past few years. At this point, he should be producing top-ten hits for A-list pop-stars, but the music industry, as usual, is looking backward, not forward. Neorev is the future, and I like where it’s headed.[/i]

Happy holidays to my friends, my family, and my fans...
I wanted to do something special this year... so here's a collection of bootlegs and remixes spanning the last decade of me doing my music thang. It's all for free download in the format of your choice. 2013 is almost here and I can't believe the new year will mark ten years for NR.

Now here I am ten years later... still soldiering on... still making the beats. And I'm not stopping anytime soon! I love you all from the bottom of my heart and appreciate all of the support over this last decade. Keep spreading the love and I'll keep making the beats. Hope you all enjoy this little special collection that'll be up for a limited time. Stay safe, be well, and I wish the best for you and yours. New music in 2013

Getting some love at metalectro-music.com...
"Next i have some fresh blood coming on and let me tell you that this one is really rocking and really damn tasty fresh blood and a great freebie too from the NYC based Neorev! Electro indie punk rock kind of feel to it, with the great vocals by It Was July really giving the track a really nice character. I loved it since the very first second i pressed play and i have listened to it a few times since then so i had to post this one and hopefully you will all like it as much as i did."

A glowing review of the NO CONTROL EP by Chuck Foster from The Big Takeover...
Neorev’s Michael Matteo is one tireless individual. Now on the fourth EP generated from his Children of the Bomb franchise, Matteo delivers yet another superb collection of remixes, reboots and brand new tracks guaranteed to drive all cyber knights out of their coffins and into the glowing neon sprawl.
The title track, which first appeared on Neorev’s “Wildfire” EP, finds new life here as a vocal track featuring lyrics written and performed by Susan Morris, aka It Was July, giving the track an Icona Pop vibe. Some exclusive originals follow: the Superstar DJ Keoki-esque ride of “Riptide,” the insistent pulse’n‘thump rave-up of “Vapor Trail,” “Demon Inside”‘s old school jungle/drum’n‘bass whirlwind and the hip-hop/dubstep attack of “Monetary Policy,” which features some heady rapping from Centri. A slew of remixes of the vocal version of “No Control” appear (the frantic industrial drum’n‘bass mix by Noise Generator stands out), as well as a slightly longer version of the original instrumental. Two additional remixes of Neorev favorites “Basshead” and “Proper Funkage” appear to round out the release.
When it comes to electronic dance music, Neorev is really at the top of his game, begging the question, why is he not the hottest producer since Diplo assigned with the task of crafting Top 40 hits to be used in mega-corporate commercials? Who cares? His music stands on its own and is miles ahead of the pop drivel pumped on the radio these days, so jack-in to Neorev’s virtual reality where we all celebrate being children of the bomb.

Let's take a look back at the end of 2011, the beginning to a new era of NR with the release of CHILDREN OF THE BOMB. A darker, bass driven follow up to my debut release Lines & Shapes. I began writing material for it in March of that year, but wasn't until the events of Occupy Wall Street when things really started kicking into gear. It was my sonic portrayal of watching these events unfold on television and it felt like it was an important moment in US history.
"You ever get the feeling that everything in America is completely fucked up," the opening statement of the album, sums up my headspace during this time of writing. It was a very socially-focused album for me, which came through in the darker tone compared to the dance beats of my previous effort. This album was a bit more personal for me. Whether you believed in in the intent of OWS or not, that's not really the point. The album was a representative of my personal experience during this social, political, and volatile time.
The album was a statement, we are all children of the bomb... a world capable of annihilating itself with a push of a button. A society on the brink of exploding into chaos. Almost two years on, this album is still influencing my musical output.
You can download the full album in the format of your choice at:
http://www.neorev.bandcamp.com/album/children-of-the-bomb
Here's a review by on Big Takeover Magazine when the album was released...
"After a year and a half or so, Neorev, aka Long Island’s Michael Matteo, has returned with a powerhouse sophomore effort designed to give a swift kick to the genitals of electronic dance music.
Where Neorev’s first album, Lines & Shapes, was an engaging, though upbeat, effort aimed at the dance floor, Children of the Bomb is a much darker affair that focuses on the sinister sonics of dubstep. Here, Matteo excels; his fuzzy, wobbling bass attacks with an ominous vengeance that leaves the listener feeling a bit uneasy. This isn’t your pop radio dubstep, this is the sound of empty city streets at night, where rats run rampant and the silhouettes in the shadows are either muggers out to get you or twisted figments of your imagination. These are the dirty, grimy, sleazy sounds of cyberpunk incarnate.
Children of the Bomb is a bona fide electronic classic composed with integrity and produced without pretension. It’s a lead-fisted punch in the face to bland electronica everywhere. Buy this album and kick some ass."
-Chuck Foster (The Big Takeover)
