Recent Work and Reception[edit]
Dark Addiction[edit]
Recently, Matti Charlton's single "Dark Addiction" has gained attention. Tom Farmer of "Our Sound Music" writes that it is "a brooding and honest track reflecting on society through the eyes of a young non-binary musician."[11] but also that it is "surprisingly uplifting"[12]
Johan Alexed of Popmusik.se writes "Matti is up to date here with the single Dark addiction which offers us electronic pop that is colored by a retro feeling that I personally got hooked on right away"[13].
Julien James Vachon of direct-actu.fr writes "Dark Addiction pays homage to this unique sound, this distant time."[14]
Graeme Smith of York Calling writes "There’s a retro vibe to its disco beat, an undercurrent of indie pop, and a fresh and unique feel. The vocals courtesy of Michelle Rescigno are lofty and emotive, providing a beating human heart to the track. I’m honestly a little blown away by it."[15]
The artist[16] and track[17] now appears on Hype Machine.
The song appears on the SubmitHub Popular charts in two significant ways - it is #35 in Canada on the all-time charts for all genres, as well as at #9 for all-time and for all countries in the Classic genres.[18]
Synthwave Goodbye[edit]
After releasing several singles from the album across the summer of 2021, Matti released the full length album "Synthwave Goodbye" on Aug 31, 2021.
