Edgardo Matta (born December 16, 1974), professionally known as Mattatracks, is a two-time GRAMMY and a six-time Latin GRAMMY award-winning record producer, composer, and songwriter.

In 2007 Mattatracks won his first GRAMMY award for his work in the production of Calle 13’s second record Residente o Visitante, recognized as the Best Latin Urban Album during the 50th Annual GRAMMY Ceremony.

Following this success Mattatracks produced Calle 13's third album, Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo, which earned him his second GRAMMY in 2010 receiving the Best Latin Rock, Alternative Or Urban Album award. Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo also won a total of five categories during the 10th Annual Latin GRAMMY Ceremony. Mattatracks’ work in this production was recognized winning three of those nominations: Album of the Year, Best Urban Music Album, and Record of the Year for the hit song No Hay Nadie Como Tú.

Mattatracks was also awarded three Latin GRAMMY in 2011 for his participation in the production of Calle 13's forth, and acclaimed, album: Entren Los Que Quieran. At the time, the album broke a record for Latin GRAMMY Nominations and holds the Guinness World Record for Most Latin GRAMMY Awards Won For A Single Album. This success earned Mattratracks three new accolades winning, for a second year in a row, Album of the Year, Best Urban Music Album, and Record of the Year, this time for the song Latinoamérica.

Early life

Born on December 16, 1974, in Santurce, Puerto Rico, Mattatracks grew up in the vibrant and diverse cultural milieu of the Caribbean. This upbringing exposed him to a wide variety of music genres, cultures, and creative environments that would later prove instrumental in shaping his distinctive musical style.

Music career

With a career spanning over two decades, Mattatracks continues to leave an indelible mark on the music industry through a prolific discography marked by numerous collaborations with top music artists like Barrington Levy, Daddy Yankee, and Maluma, to name a few.

Mattatracks has received two GRAMMY and six Latin GRAMMY awards, but he has also collaborated in another award-winning music production. In 2003 Mattatracks worked assisting music producer, and long-time-collaborator, "Echo" Irizarri in the engineering, mixing, and production of Vico C's record En Honor a la Verdad, which won the Latin GRAMMY for Best Urban Album in 2004.
