verse
Matt Dike was a DJ, producer and co-founder of Delicious Vinyl Records in 1987. Dike famously worked on the Beastie Boys' second album "Paul's Boutique" in his Los Angeles apartment as a member of the Dust Brothers production in 1989. In 1989, Delicious Vinyl released the rap singles "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina" by Tone-Loc, and "Bust A Move" by Young MC, which would all reach the top ten on Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Bust a Move," produced and co-written by Dike and Mike Ross, won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1990.

Early on Dike was Jean-Michel Basquiat's studio assistant for four years, during Basquiat's various residencies in Los Angeles, and founder of legendary underground LA club Power Tools.

I made this portrait of Dike for the LA Weekly.
