autoMatik Matthew Checki Horicon, WI autoBiography Displaying a unique vulnerability not often shown in Hip Hop, autoMatik's music creates an unparalleled relation with listeners. Knowing no demographical boundaries, his focus on real people and the realities of the world help him to mesh with almost anyone. However, when it comes to his songwriting and delivery he truly stands alone. autoMatik's passion for music has always been the driving force behind the scenes. Growing up in a world where Hip Hop was barely understood or accepted, he set out to gain as much knowledge as he could about the culture as a whole. This outside approach gives him an individual perspective of things, and allows him to easily step out of the box at times. Although his music may be classified as Hip Hop, autoMatik takes a much more universal approach to his songwriting and music production, doing whatever it takes to effectively convey his message. Music has always been a huge part of autoMatik's life, but it wasn't until recently that he could actually produce his own. He credits old friends for his transition from a fan to an artist. "Being around guys like D-Menace, Krazy Stylez, and Colorless helped me get my foot in the door, and gave me the motivation I needed to pick up a mic." In the past few years he has accumulated hundreds of songs, each of which displaying a steady progression from the last. This is a testament of his determination, and will to succeed. Unable to accept anything less than perfection, autoMatik strives to produce classic music. Mixing style, substance, and real life experiences his newest releases are bound to do just that.
