Koolade (born Matko Sasek) is a Croatian hip-hop producer. Born in Zagreb, Croatia in the late 1970s, he began his music career in the mid/late 1990s. Along with other members of the Blackout family he made a strong contribution in making hip-hop an established genre in the Croatian mainstream music scene. Soon after that, he and his partner/manager Phat Phillie realized that his production would make a good export, and continued to expand his work throughout Europe and the US, where he is perhaps best known for his works with Masta Ace on Disposable Arts and A Long Hot Summer, as well as a number of other prominent American hip-hop artists such as Ghostface Killah and Talib Kweli.
