Summer is still active, and before August is over, we wanted to highlight one more Summer hit on “Oldies Sunday“. Today, we go back in time to check out Selector/Recording Artist Tony Matterhorn’s “Dutty Wine“.
Produced by SupaHype on the “Smash Riddim” and released through Smash Hyperactive Entertainment in 2006, Tony Matterhorn’s “Dutty Wine” was for the Women who had attitude, and the ability to take on the dance floor. The “Dutty Wine” dance, which required dancers to perform a rotating movement of the neck, adding various movements with it, was said to have originated around 2003 by then popular Dancer Mad Michelle and Dance Group The Attitude Girls, and given its rising popularity, it was immortalized through song. The song quickly became a hit for Matterhorn as his deejaying would place him on the forefront at the time, and the dance would grow to become a controversial one as Doctors publicly warned about its health risks. “Dutty Wine” would go on to gain International recognition, inspiring many, including Pop star Beyonce, to perform variations of the dance in music videos, and stage performances. It was also referenced by Rapper Nicki Minaj in her verse on Kanye West’s “Monster” single. On August 15, 2025, “Dutty Wine” was certified “Silver” in the UK, selling over 200,000 copies. The song would become Tony Matterhorn’s biggest hit.
Since the release of “Dutty Wine”, Tony Matterhorn would go on to release a number of singles over the years. His DJing career continued to thrive as that was his lane before becoming a Recording Artist, and would not only entertain crowds to this day with his mixes and selections, but battle fellow DJs for titles in “World Clash” competitions. “Dutty Wine” is still a party starter, and a classic.
