Matej Končan (alias Kleemar) is an electronic composer and musician, oriented towards analogue electronic sounds. Kleemar's music, commonly described as IDM or intelligent dance music, profoundly reaches beyond firm genre categorisation and varies between soft and harsh analogue sound expressions, usually produced with his old Fender Rhodes keyboard. Watching Kleemar's live act with his band (Sašo Benko and Ivor Knafelj, also members of bands Psycho-Path, Manul, Stekli psi, Werefox, Plueg) is a special experience, since all the three members play and exchange their instruments, synthesiser, bass, electric guitar

. He is a passionate experimenter with analogue electronic devices and a curious explorer of new digital creative options, in short an electro all-rounder. Kleemar creates warm lyrical harmonies and serene sounds, recycling old audio and film materials into new sound qualities. With Kleemar on synthesiser and three additional musicians (Jernej Šavel, Sašo Benko, David Halb) on drums, bass, guitar and synthesiser, his production attains energetic post-rock dimensions and impressively reflects intolerance for purism and categorisation in music. Kleemar is also a member of the croatian electro-pop-rock group Lollobrigida and was a part of Club Marathon in 2004. Nowadays he is more into creating music for theater, he cooperated as a music *** on various shows produced by Sng nova gorica, Sng maribor and Mgl.
He is a part of Prekmurje Noise Conspiracy (P-N-C) and God Bless This Mess record label.
