He is currently busy with Reimagination: The Remixes Vol. 1, a collection of world-class dance collaborations with Billboard-topper Mr. Mig (Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Usher) and Grammy-winner Philip Larsen (Kylie Minogue, Soft Cell, Erasure, OMD).
This evolution follows M4TR’s acclaimed album Love Is The Revolution (2025) and a decade of sonic rebellion including Rock To Resist By, Next, and M4TR LIVE, reaching 2.7M+ streams on 4K+ playlists in 150 countries.
AJ is also working on four collections simultaneously: Arkolyte II, his sophomore world ambient album arriving in 2026; On Winter’s Edge, darkwave meditations on retreat and change; By Intelligent Design, a funky exploration of AI’s impact on humanity; and How To Start A Fire, a high-energy return to the project’s activist roots.
M4TR has performed solo and with two live bands across the Washington DC area at premier venues including Jammin Java, Songbyrd Café, Pearl Street Warehouse, The Renegade, Public Bar Live, and The Pocket, as well as festivals like Adams Morgan Porchfest and Launch Music Fest.
