Biography Gresham grew up listening mainly to guitar based music such as Rage Against the Machine, and downtempo electronic music. He took no interest in drum and bass until he was introduced to the "Music Box" LP released by Full Cycle Records, which appealed to him as he described it "like downtempo tunes with double time beats".
He creates his music using the Ableton sequencer. His music style tends to be towards the more soul-influenced styles of drum and bass but is also targeted at a club audience rather than a home audience,Review of "Now More Than Ever" on Drum & Bass Arena (Retrieved June 2007)Review of "Now More Than Ever" on inthemix.com.au (Retrieved June 2007) which is described as such by Hospital Records as "bridging the gap between a lacklustre subgenre, liquid funk, and more exciting, dancefloor orientated drum and bass".Artist biography on Hospital Records' website (Retrieved June 2007) His two brothers—Dan Gresham (known as Nu:Tone) and Nick Gresham (known as Other Echoes and, formerly, Bastille)—are also producers signed to Hospital Records. Matt has also collaborated with Dan under the name Nu:Logic.
The first release Gresham was involved in was a collaborative work as Nu:Logic, on Tangent Recordings in 2003.Nu:Logic discography on rolldabeats.com (Retrieved June 2007) He then went on to release his first work under the name Logistics, "Come To You / Music", on Nu:Tone's own label, Brand.nu, which led to his signing to Hospital Records.

After leaving college, he released tracks such as "Together" and "Spacejam" (from the Spacejam EP) and "The Trip" (from Weapons of Mass Creation 2) which attracted the attention of Grooverider and Andy C.
