Her first musical attempts began in 1996, at the age of twelve. A passion and fascination of music led her through many genres. Beginning with Hardcore, Trance, Psytrance, progressing though to experimenting with down tempo and Hip-Hop. 2001 she discovered the album ‘Clockwork’ by ‘Stakka and Skynet.’ Her journey with Drum and Bass music was born.
Matia has a unique style, not trying to follow anyone but rather prefers to walk her own path. With potential growing - her sound becoming ever more definitive.
She was discovered in November 2008 by Tony Colman of ‘Hospital Records’. They featured her soon to be debut hit ‘Beautiful Lies’ on the ‘London Electricity’ Podcast, later to be featured on the ‘Introducing’ BBC Radio1 show. After receiving a lot of attention from other producers, DJ’s and fans alike; ‘Beautiful Lies’ was released with great succession as an ‘A side’ on Hospital’s ‘Sick Music’ compilation album in June 2009, reaching the top 30 ‘iTunes UK Download Chart’ and making it into the top 5 ‘Beatport Drum and Bass Chart’. The tune soon became a major d&b hit, and is now considered classic among many.
Soon after, her track ‘Three Dots’ also received play from Tony and High Contrast on Radio1. Forthcoming releases in line, a full DJ schedule, with her first UK show in September 2009 at London’s 'Hospitality @Matter'.
For many, her coming out as transgender was also such surprise. She promotes tolerance, understanding and defends the minorities, in her actions and in music too. Recent example being her tune 'Past lessons for the future', a free track featuring words of great czech actor and philosopher Jan Werich.
Girl With Flower
B-Complex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dancing in the light of a thousand precious suns
And I'd hate to be someone
In the chaos that appears when you walk on
Oh sweet precious mind. Blessed with an excess in divine intellect and love
And I'll never be someone
In the darkness that appears when you walk on
And I'm not looking for the weekend anymore
I've learned to spend it by myself
With a heart that cuts
And a face like lightning
I say I'm looking for the 2:45
And you say you dont recognize me
I'm not trying to have skin in your game
Just watch me now, I'm staying sane
Flower girl
Dancing in the light of a thousand worlds
And picking me apart with that casual distaste
Of hey buddy, I think you're great
And this is exactly how I see you in my mind
And oh sweet tragedy
Basking in the heat of a thousand suns
And calling me every word except the ones I want
I hate to say it, but it's not
Just that simple
To put into words
B-Complex's "Girl With Flower" is a poetic and abstract song that depicts the singer's admiration for a girl who exudes beauty, intelligence, and an aura of chaos. The song opens with a vivid image of the flower girl dancing in the light of the sun, which serves as a metaphor for her radiance and positive energy. The singer seems to envy her ability to draw people towards her, despite the chaos that ensues in her wake. The girl is blessed with divine intellect and love, which contrasts with the darkness that appears when she walks on. The singer expresses a sense of longing to be close to her but recognizes that he can never truly be someone in her world.
The second verse shifts to the singer's personal reflections, where he admits to his own solitude and inability to connect with others. He has learned to spend time alone, with his heart being cut and his face like lightning, indicating a sense of emotional pain and isolation. The line "I'm not trying to have skin in your game" suggests that the singer is not interested in playing the same games as others and seeks something more meaningful. The song closes with references to tragedy and an intense heat, indicating that the singer recognizes the fleeting nature of life and the struggles that come with it.
