After graduating from Bloomfield, Morgart, better known by his producer name, MATRIXX, worked as head engineer of a local record label with productions featured on MTV, BET and radio stations such as HOT 97 and Power 105.1.<\/p>\n
Sheridan studied Journalism and then went on to pursue a master\u2019s degree in Public and Organizational Relations, where she focused her research on social media within the music industry.<\/p>\n
Together, \u201cwe understand the importance of not just creating great music, but also creating a strong brand identity and connecting with audiences,” Sheridan says.<\/p>\n

Morgart and Sheridan met as teenagers in the Bloomfield youth band, where Morgart played the bassoon and Sheridan and her saxophone sat two seats over.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was way too shy to talk to him and vice versa, but then there came a point where we had a concert. He forgot his sheet music and ended up having to look on with my sheet music. That kind of forced us to start talking and now we co-own a record label together,\u201d Sheridan says.<\/p>\n
In February, Space Hound Records<\/a> released its first R&B single, \u201cLike Me,\u201d from the rising Newark star, RNBHunter. And to make their collaboration complete, in January Morgart and Sheridan also became engaged, nine years after first meeting in band. \u201cIt\u2019s not every day that you get engaged to your business co-founder. We\u2019re looking forward to this new chapter \u2013 both for Space Hound Records and for us,\u201d Sheridan says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Story by Staff Writer <\/i>Marilyn Joyce Lehren<\/i><\/b><\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n You May Also Like:<\/p>\n Bloomfield College Now Part of Montclair State University<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n Some Montclair Students Call Bloomfield Campus Home<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
