In this heartfelt episode of The Weekly Beat with Matoma, a transcontinental collaboration takes center stage as Matoma invites Australian singer-songwriter Sam Fischer and UK-based rising producer Loek to Oslo. The episode traces the origins of a powerful demo Sam and Loek sent remotely — a song so honest and emotionally resonant that Matoma knew it couldn’t be finished over email. He flew both artists to Norway to complete it together, marking the first time the trio met in person. What followed was an intimate creative journey rooted in vulnerability, purpose, and shared musical instincts.For Matoma, the collaboration held personal gravity. As he prepares to marry the love of his life later this year, the themes of the song — love, reflection, and emotional courage — hit especially close to home. In the studio, the three artists pour their full selves into crafting a track that feels timeless and human. Along the way, they discuss fame, burnout, growth, and what it means to make music that speaks directly to the heart.The song we made "Made For You" comes out Friday June 27th, listen here.We're releasing a new episode and song EVERY SINGLE WEEK so be sure to subscribe and join this ambitious journey of music-making and storytelling!
