Edgardo Matta (born December 16, 1974), professionally known as Mattatracks, is a two-time GRAMMY[1] and a six-time Latin GRAMMY award-winning[2] record producer, composer, and songwriter.[3]

In 2007 Mattatracks won his first GRAMMY award for his work in the production of Calle 13’s second record Residente o Visitante,[4] recognized as the Best Latin Urban Album during the 50th Annual GRAMMY Ceremony.[5]

Following this success Mattatracks produced Calle 13's third album, Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo,[6] which earned him his second GRAMMY in 2010 receiving the Best Latin Rock, Alternative Or Urban Album award.[7] Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo also won a total of five categories during the 10th Annual Latin GRAMMY Ceremony. Mattatracks’ work in this production was recognized winning three of those nominations: Album of the Year,[8] Best Urban Music Album,[8] and Record of the Year for the hit song No Hay Nadie Como Tú.[8]

Mattatracks was also awarded three Latin GRAMMY in 2011 for his participation in the production of Calle 13's forth, and acclaimed,[9][10] album: Entren Los Que Quieran.[11] At the time, the album broke a record for Latin GRAMMY Nominations[12][13] and holds the Guinness World Record for Most Latin GRAMMY Awards Won For A Single Album.[14] This success earned Mattratracks three new accolades winning, for a second year in a row, Album of the Year,[15] Best Urban Music Album,[15] and Record of the Year, this time for the song Latinoamérica.[15]

Early life

[edit]

Born on December 16, 1974, in Santurce, Puerto Rico, Mattatracks grew up in the vibrant and diverse cultural milieu of the Caribbean. This upbringing exposed him to a wide variety of music genres, cultures, and creative environments that would later prove instrumental in shaping his distinctive musical style.

Music career

[edit]

With a career spanning over two decades, Mattatracks continues to leave an indelible mark on the music industry through a prolific discography marked by numerous collaborations with top music artists like Barrington Levy, Daddy Yankee, and Maluma, to name a few.

Mattatracks has received two GRAMMY[1] and six Latin GRAMMY awards,[2] but he has also collaborated in another award-winning music production. In 2003 Mattatracks worked assisting music producer, and long-time-collaborator, "Echo" Irizarri in the engineering, mixing, and production[16] of Vico C's record En Honor a la Verdad, which won the Latin GRAMMY for Best Urban Album in 2004.[17]
