The man behind the original meaning of the word 'emo', responsible for the bands Far, New End Original, Gratitude and Onelinedrawing. Matranga's work with Far includes the classic album 'Water and Solutions'. It was their last before splitting in 1998 and is widely seen as an influence on many contemporary emo bands.
