Mat Zo has always been the kind of artist who refuses to sit neatly inside a box. His career is a testament to boundary-pushing creativity, from his breakout Anjunabeats hits like The Sky and Superman to his genre-blurring collaborations such as Easy with Porter Robinson and Rebound with ARTY. With a GRAMMY nomination for his 2013 debut album Damage Control and a catalogue spanning trance, progressive, breakbeat, and techno, Matan Zohar has earned his reputation as one of electronic music’s most innovative voices.
After 2024’s experimental ZOCASE EP and his acclaimed 2020 LP Illusion of Depth, Mat Zo returns to his Anjunabeats roots with Wounded, his first release of 2025. While he’s known for bending genres, here he channels pure trance energy — but, true to form, it’s infused with his signature unpredictability. The track shimmers with soaring synth leads, tightly woven percussion, and a deep, emotive undercurrent that lives up to its title. There’s a sense of vulnerability threaded through the melody, creating a contrast between driving rhythm and bittersweet atmosphere.
What makes Wounded stand out is how it feels both classic and forward-thinking — a nod to the golden era of Anjunabeats while carrying Zo’s modern production precision. It’s the kind of track that could close a festival set in euphoric fashion or soundtrack a solitary late-night drive with equal impact.
