After years of touring and releasing music in the indie-dance outfit Paper Idol, LA-based artist Matan KG takes a bold step into electroclash as Deep Thrills

The debut track from Deep Thrills comes in the form of "First Date," a collaboration with LA-based electropop artist and visual designer XKYLAR (recently featured in Paper Magazine). The bloghaus-friendly dance track tells the story of a bad first date in dialogue fashion, with each character telling their side of the story.

The track was inspired by real events: "I was going on a lot of first dates at the time," says Matan. "dating in LA can be really fun but also really strange – I feel like a lot of people will relate to the lyrics of the song." 

With "First Date" as a thrilling introduction, Deep Thrills emerges as a compelling sound in the electro landscape, poised to captivate audiences with his bold creativity and authenticity.

Deep Thrills Bio:

In August 2023, Matan KG was nearly thrown off a bridge. "I was walking home from a friend's in Atwater, and this guy randomly came up and rammed me into the overpass ledge. I almost fell onto the highway below." 
 
This brush with death caused a radical awakening, as well as a creative renaissance. "I went to the studio and didn’t leave for like a month. It was maniacal." He eventually left the studio with 13 new songs that contained a newfound rawness and immediacy. Blending left-field dance music with distorted guitars and vocals, Deep Thrills is a testament to lust, untamed passion, and visceral emotion. 

After years of touring and releasing music in the indie-dance outfit Paper Idol (featured in Consequence of Sound, Under the Radar, American Songwriter), LA-based artist Matan KG presents a bold new twist on electroclash as Deep Thrills. The act blends French pop and American Indie into songs about lust and romance in the digital age. Inspired by the legacy of bands like Phoenix and LCD Soundsystem, Deep Thrills reveals Matan's most raw and potent artistry to date.
