Matterhorn celebrates in style


Tourists from Canada and the United States of America came to Jamaica to celebrate renowned disc jockey and Dancehall Artiste Tony Matterhorn's birthday party at Pier One in Montego Bay over the weekend.

According to male fan from the US, "I love his work and his ability to entertain and it is only fitting to come down and celebrate his birthday".

DJ Jigga tried to inject life into the audience in the early segment of the event with a mixture of old and new Dancehall songs that had the crowd rocking momentarily but such support dwindled as he concluded his near 30 minute musical stint.

Montego Bay’s ‘Crazy Chris’ and DJ Jigsy were however able to revive the crowd a bit through the heavy thud of hip hop beats as DJ Jigsy paused at regular intervals to talk to the patrons and solicit an active response to music being played.

Razz and Biggy had their high and low points during their juggling but were still able to capture a few dance moves by the ladies who were more eager to hear what Tony Matterhorn had to offer.

Matterhorn, whose real name is Dufton Taylor showed partygoers why he has managed to remain relevant not only as a music selector but as a dancehall Artiste. As soon as he touched the turntables he made his presence felt and showed that music is timeless despite the era it was produced. From pop music that was done in the 70s and the 80s, Matterhorn schooled disc jockeys on the importance of musical diversity.

“Some a di deejays these days a pure Gully and Gaza alone unnuh a play, it a get monotonous mek mi show y’all how fi select music” Matterhorn said right before playing Michael Jackson’s 70s hit Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough and Madonna’s 1984 hit Like a Virgin.

The birthday boy never failed in his bid to entertain his fans. The selector turned dancehall artiste, interjected as he played his international hit Dutty Wine saying “mi couldn’t come a MoBay and nuh play this” as he deejayed apart of his song but Matterhorn kept patrons partying non-stop until about 5:15 a.m.
