Heatbeat are an Argentinian trance and electro house production project formed in 2006 by Agustin Servente and Matias Chavez a.k.a. Matias Faint, who scored a number of hits since their formation. Their most famous tracks to date are "Paradise Garage", "Ask the Angels", "Roses Never Cry", "Rocker Monster", "Chow Mein", "Game Over", "Aerys", "Bloody Moon" and "Cell". Implementing various Spanish-styled note sections into their tracks, their style of trance is unique and identifiable. Signing on to the Armada record label started by trance artist Armin van Buuren, their music reaches a widespread trance audience.
As they produce various subgenres of trance, the group integrates their latest tracks and bootlegs of current song hits into their live sets.[citation needed]
While Servente and Faint were young, they developed an interest in the EDM genre. The two were mainly influenced by artists such as Paul van Dyk, The Prodigy, BT, and others. As both of them have strong skills in instruments such as the piano, drums, and guitar, they began producing at an early age.
In recent years, Heatbeat received support from other producers and DJs such as Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, Tiësto, and Markus Schulz. They now perform alongside artists such as Above & Beyond, John O'Callaghan, Cosmic Gate, and Ferry Corsten.[citation needed] Their songs and mixes have aired on electronic music broadcast stations worldwide.
The Argentine trance duo have played at events around the world, such as Armin van Buuren's A State of Trance show in Moscow, Miami, Ibiza, Los Angeles, and in clubs in Buenos Aires. In 2012, the two completed their first worldwide tour, started their own radio show, and also had two tracks in Beatport's top trance song chart. The pair received support from names and labels in EDM, and they also achieved a rank of 81 in DJ Mag's Top 100 in 2012.
In 2017, Heatbeat created their own label with Armada Music, Aerys Records. The idea of this project is to give opportunities to different artists or producers in Argentina or Latin America. Some of these producers are Luciano Martinez, Architect, Apaches, and Danilo Ercole.
Since 2018, Matias is the sole member of Heatbeat.[citation needed]
