Antomattei, who is frequently credited as DJ Antomattei of Tokyo (born Marc Tolin Antomattei on January 4, 1983 in El Paso, Texas) is a black Puerto Rican professional disc jockey of Italian and Native-American ancestry. He is both a musical connoisseur and an autodidact; known for playing many eclectic styles of music including house, hip hop, soul, acid-jazz, disco, lounge, bossa nova, and salsa among other styles. The self-proclaimed “Miles Davis of DJs” got his start as a disc jockey while residing in Tokyo, Japan in late 2005. Antomattei credits DJs Tony Humphries, Masters At Work and Dimitri From Paris as his influences. The artist name "Antomattei of Tokyo" is a spin on the name and an open homage to DJ Dimitri From Paris.

Music runs deep in DJ Antomattei's family roots, especially in Latin music. Marc Antomattei is the nephew of Agustin "Augie" Antomattei, an exceptional salsa trumpeter who has performed with greats such as Eddie Palmieri (2x Grammy Award winning orchestra), Bobby Valentin, Cano Extremera, Jose Alberto, Pellin Rodrguez, and the Puerto Rico All Stars (a legendary salsa jazz band that was the Puerto Rico alternative to the acclaimed New York based Fania All Stars). He is also a nephew of Victor "Cano" Gonzalez, another salsa trumpter who has been performing with the world famous El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico (2x Grammy winners) since 1980. His grandfather's brother Candido Antomattei, was one of two main vocalist in Arsenio Rodrguez's conjunto, a band that was part of the roots in the establishment of latin music genres such as mambo and salsa. Lastly he has another uncle, Agustin Caraballoso who also performed in Arsenio's conjunto with Candido.

In 2006 DJ Antomattei befriended Mark Dwayne, a singer and magazine owner from Birmingham, England. The West Midlands based magazine “Street Cred”, is the UK’s number 1 entertainment and lifestyle magazine in which Antomattei was an occasional contributing writer for. In July 2008, Dwayne gave Antomattei the news that he was booked in the UK’s second city of Birmingham to play an event on Boxing Day December 26, 2008 at the Street Cred sponsored event “Funkaliscious”. Having taken place at the now defunct club Barracuda, it was the West Midlands biggest monthly residency party.

In his resident city of Tokyo, Japan Antomattei has played at venues all across the Greater Tokyo Area including Shibuya, Harajuku, Roppongi, Aoyama, Shinjuku, Akasaka, Yokohama, Chiba and the Shonan beach area. In the later half of 2009 Antomattei branched out to the western part of Japan's mainland of Honshu Island, where he played gigs in the city of Nagoya.

Antomattei still today is one of Tokyo's most active and important expatriate DJs. In the world's largest city where the city is over-saturated with dime a dozen DJs, Antomattei remains a prominent individual for cutting out a niche for himself and staying true to the music. In a monotonous sea where most DJs sound the same, Antomattei has branded himself with his unwavering commitment to not be a faceless DJ that only plays top 40 as so many are, but instead be a real DJ with his original sound that goes against the grain that can't be replicated.
