Seismic Waves are Hull dance music producers Matt Barker and electro house DJ Alirumba. 

Matt has been producing solo material under the moniker of Epicentre since the mid-90s. In that time, he has also worked with an array of diverse artists, such as Manchester's The Rainband, US pop group Lovespirals, Bizarre Inc diva Angie Brown, dubstep artist A Me B and fellow producers Joel North, Phil Urry and Andy Eggleton of Definite Grooves. Matt collaborated with several performers on the Epicentre album, 'Supernova', which was released at the end of 2012, along with the follow-up album 'Aftershocks' released 3 years later..

Alex Ward has been playing in clubs since 2007 when he was first given the chance to play at the legendary Zebra club in Hull. Playing under the name of Alirumba, the electro scene was in full flow and his ability to read the crowd gained him regular sets at the popular local underground club with residencies for Sexylectro, Shine and Drop, with the most noteable performance playing along side the now famous Essential Mix DJ, Producer "Hot Since 82". His early influences came from the Trance era with Renaissance DJ's Sasha and Digweed being his inspiration for the desire to play the clubs himself.

Whilst moving into music production Al has maintained his presence on the local Hull club and bar scene with various sets played at Jaz, Revolution, Duice, LA's (Bongo's), City Limits and Vega. He continues with his style of tough remixes of crowd pleasing tunes which recently earned him his largest gig to date, which saw him headline on Haloween to a 3000 strong crowd at the Streetpub night club in Bangkok.

Since 2008, the Seismic Waves partnership have produced both original material and remixes for artists such as Carl Shawn, Quivver, Fatboy Slim and The Future Sound of London. The Seismic EP showcased original projects, which was closely followed by the single release 'Das Glockenspiel' - a reworking of Schiller's classic trance anthem. Several Seismic Waves tracks were also included on the Epicentre album Supernova, with Matt and Al working on new Seismic Waves material for release in 2019.
