For the first time on The Weekly Beat, Matoma welcomes guests from the United States — Los Angeles-based duo Good Humans. Comprised of accomplished songwriters and producers Peter Hanna and Mickey Karbal (aka Aryay), the duo brings a staggering 3.5 billion combined streams to the table. They dive into how their years writing and producing for artists like Drake, David Guetta, and Juice WRLD have shaped their own sound. Now stepping into the spotlight with their new artist project, they reflect on going from behind-the-scenes collaborators to creating music under their own name.
What makes this episode stand out is the genuine connection between Matoma and the duo, built on shared values of kindness, intentionality, and purpose in music-making. The conversation flows through their individual stories, the power of friendship in creativity, and the decision to focus on authenticity over industry expectations. It’s a warm, thoughtful, and inspiring exchange between three artists who believe in making music that feels good — not just sounds good.
The song we made "Good To Be Me" comes out Friday August 22nd, listen here.
