Mat101 is a Rome-based electronic group, formed by Mario Pierro, Francesco De Bellis and Emiliano Tortora.
We have been releasing tracks since 1997, on both Italian & European labels (Nature records, Plasmek, Millennium).
Our music style is a mixture of electro beats, old arcade videogame tracks & some 80's new wave mood (however, hear it yourself, the tracks are here  =).
Now the first full-lenght LP is ready, it's called "Goodbye mum" and features 13 tracks... it will be published by Balance (Nature + Plasmek toghether). Click here for a review of the album
The album will be preceded by the single "Goblin101", which features a previously unreleased track ("Sintesi"), and by two EP of remixes.
All the artwork of these two works has been done by Infidel (Enrico D'Elia), who also provided the original pics used to build this site & the flash animations..

Here are various excerpts from our released & forthcoming tracks...
These are in Real audio format, you may need the last version of the player which can be downloaded for free at Realaudio web site
All these records can be found & ordered online at Final Frontier web store
