As early as 1994, Quinn began to release material as Matrix. Since then, his work has appeared on numerous compilations released by various drum and bass labels. His debut LP, Sleepwalk was released in 2000 by Virus Recordings (operated by his brother).

In 2001, Quinn ventured into the house music genre as one half of Goldtrix. In 2002, Goldtrix released a cover of Jill Scott's "It's Love (Trippin')", featuring singer Andrea Brown. It became a number one hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart[citation needed] and reached number six on the UK Singles Chart in February 2002.[1]
