As the Matt Pop fan page on Facebook welcomes more and more subscribers, and Matt ‘s YouTube channel is rapidly going for 2.000.000 video views, I think it is time for an update on the official Matt Pop releases that will be coming your way soon. Because Matt has been slaving away on many mixes this year and all of them seem to be released in June and July. Better put aside some of that vacation money, pop fans!  A round-up:

Peter Wilson’s album Laser Light (4 Matt Pop productions, two of them co-written by Matt): released late June / early July.

Sammy Paul’s album 24 Hours (3 tracks produced by, 1 track mixed by Matt Pop): June / July (the single Supersonic Lover, produced by Matt will be released before that)

RuPaul: a whopping 7 Matt Pop mixes of tracks from Ru’s brilliant Glamazon album. One of these mixes will be making a regular appearance on one of Ru‘s tv shows soon. Mixes released sometime this summer.

Samantha Fox: A Second Chance and That’s What Love Can Do. The much talked about PWL tracks, additional production and mix by Matt Pop, feature on Just One Night (Deluxe Edition), released July 2, 2012. (this is the new release date, as given by Cherry Pop Records, due to a delay in the manufacturing process)

Pierre Pascual: France’s alternative, gender-bender glamrock electro prince releases his next single Deneuve Danse (an ode to French cinema queen Catherine) this summer, again with a fabulous Matt Pop club mix.

David Christopher: Unprotectable. This gorgeous song has been around for a long time and I can’t wait for the Matt Pop mix to be released! Again: scheduled for this summer.

Almighty Records: Matt Pop did quite a few mixes for Almighty this year; watch out for those on the Almighty site over the coming months. One very special track will actually feature Matt Pop’s vocals! Oh dear…

Teresa Marie: Walk Of Life. Great high-octane track that has already been sent out to Dj’s everywhere. It will feature on Teresa‘s upcoming album A Decade Of Dance.

So – there will be enough Matt Pop to keep your MP3 player occupied this summer! Keep checking this site or www.youtube.com/mattpopofficial for the latest releases.

Robert Moog, the man behind the legendary Moog synthesizers, was born 78 years ago today. Sounds from his instruments can be heard on many Matt Pop productions. Check out the playable Moog synth on the Google home page today!

The release of Peter Wilson‘s album Laser Light is rapidly approaching. There will be 4 Matt Pop productions on the album and Peter is teasing us left, right and centre with glimpses of the tracks. To hear a snippet of the Peter Wilson – Sammy Paul duet Endless Road (a cover of the Time Bandits classic, this time produced by Matt Pop), go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjs__6ZVEAs&feature=relmfu

Peter Wilson‘s next single Take Me As I Am will be released in about a month. Peter suggested that it would make a great mash-up with Kylie‘s Step Back In Time. And he was right! Matt Pop re-arranged Pete‘s vocals over the Kylie backing track and the result is a stunning slice of disco heaven. The trouble is, licensing the official PWL instrumental may prove an impossible task. Even though Peter and Matt have quite a history of working with PWL-related artists and producers, the powers that be can be very protective of their hit songs. So, while the outcome of this release is still very much up in the air, we are allowed a quick glimpse of what this mix could be…. check it out here:
