About D4

What makes D4 unique.

  • D4 Recording Studio

    History

    D4 began in 2006 primarily as a mobile sound recording business, which grew into the physical recording studio that is still operating as D4 Recording Studio. Music has been a passion of mine for a long time and I have had a great time working for some amazing local and international artists.


  • Computer Code

    Web Design

    I have worked with computers since I was a kid, and naturally built my own website and looked after my own branding and design needs. I started building websites and stores for other people and soon realised that I loved doing it! I began getting requests for design work more regularly, so I built this website as a platform to showcase my design work separately from my work as an audio engineer... I hope you like it!

  • Logo example

    Graphic Design

    I have years of experience with logo design and advertising artwork, including technical preparation for printing. If you need help with this, get in touch!

    Photography

    Photography and video come hand-in-hand with my passion for music and audio; it's about capturing the moment. I love landscapes and astrophotography, and I can also use my camera skills to get great shots of your products if we need them!

  • Seattle skyline

    Travel

    Above all, my passion is traveling. It is not directly related to web design, but I feel that visiting new places provides an invaluable wealth of knowledge and experience that simply can't be learnt sitting still.

About Me

Matt Dever

Matt Dever

Web Designer

I was born in Beaudesert, a small town south of Brisbane. I spent my younger years living in Rockhampton with my family where I completed high-school, after which I returned to Brisbane to study Audio.

My work in the audio industry has allowed me work with some amazing local and international artists; DEVO, Blondie, Simple Minds, Paul Dempsey and Busby Marou just to name a few. These days I tend to spend less time on the road, prefering to work with a handful of loyal artists such as Halfway, Kobrakai and childrens entertainers The Boogie Woogies.

My interest in design has grown over the years as I have spent more and more time building websites and designing artwork for advertising, album covers and the like. I may have terrible eyesight, but I know what good design looks like and I know how to achieve it!

Aside from my work with audio and design, I also work as an Acoustic Consultant for Brisbane firm Noise Measurement Services. We undertake Noise Impact Assessments for a variety of industries such as construction, mining, transport and agriculture.

Aside from work altogether, I love to travel with my wife. We have seen a lot of the planet already and can't wait to explore more. While traveling, I keep busy with photography, mountain-biking and skiing. The photograph at the top of this website was taken near a tiny town called Benton Hot Springs on the California / Nevada border, near Yosemite National Park (37°53'19.52"N, 118°38'13.86"W).
