CADENZA 059EP
|
Danish producer Martinez rarely fails to surprise club music lovers with his versatile views on techno and house. The Mzuzu EP is all about bass -- the bass is all around, gushing into every corner of the club, pervading concrete and iron. "Mzuzu Chant" and "Adagio" are for the beautiful moments when the dancing crowd detaches itself from time and space. Martinez's compositions manage to unleash a deep joy that only Tibetan monks might feel after weeks of meditation.

MHR 012CD
|
This is the third album by Denmark's Martinez. Throughout his career Martin Schwanstein aka Martinez has experienced quite a few musical paradigm shifts. And he is certainly not the only one in the techno scene who has done so. Many of his fellow musicians also started, over time, focusing more on certain forms of techno and house music. In the case of Martinez, it was a shift from deep house to minimal techno and finally to his current dancefloor house sound; however, you never get the feeling that Martinez is just jumping on the bandwagon. When his first record, Momomowha, was released on Moon Harbour in 2008, the house revival had just started, and Martinez instantly managed to establish his own little niche. After 3 EPs and a co-production with label boss Matthias Tanzmann, Martinez has established himself on the label's roster of musicians and represents Moon Harbour at label parties all over the world. When you see Martinez DJ, his many years of experience become obvious -- he simply knows how to set a club on fire. The Paradigm Shift is unique in having mastered the balancing act between dancefloor rhythm and home-listening quality. His organic sound combines all elements such as dense beats and jazzy chords so well, the listener is convinced that all of these are cast from the same mold. Every now and then, you get the feeling you are listening to a really old house record that was simply produced with 2010 technology. Funky and explosive at all the right moments.

LLFO 009EP
|
"With 'Symphony Of Bliss' by Martinez, the OSLO sublabel presents an EP as hot as the upcoming summer weeks. The A-Side starts with 'Symphony Of Bliss,' a housey peak time track, that's going to lift the spirits on every summer rave dancefloor, emotional fireworks included. On the flip side, a typical Martinez monster-of-percussion is waiting to devour the crowd. Sneaking, filtered monotony at its best. An extraordinary EP!"

This is the third volume in Moon Harbour's Inhouse compilation series, mixed by Martinez. More than just simply packed with new and exclusive tracks from Moon Harbour artists and friends, this label compilation also includes landmarks which connect a contemporary sound with a look to the future by giving a mouth-watering taste of upcoming releases. Two eventful years have passed since the last Inhouse compilation: almost a dozen new EPs have been released and played relentlessly in clubs worldwide -- releases by Moon Harbour residents Matthias Tanzmann, Marlow, Luna City Express and Dan Drastic, but also by Simon Flower, Miguel Toro, Gregor Tresher, Seuil, and last but not least, Martinez, who is set to influence the labels' profile more in the future. Moon Harbour has now become fully international, with its artists receiving global acclaim and booking for gigs far and wide. Inhouse Vol. 3 ranges from classical house through to the current sound of the club-scene, in which the borders between techno, minimal and house are becoming more and more blurred. The compilation seamlessly combines tracks by friends of Moon Harbour like Boris Werner and Mathias Kaden, who have previously remixed for Moon Harbour before, artists like Martinez and Vera who are currently the label's focus, newcomers Dan Drastic & Chris Lattner, who are set to cause more sensation in the future, and last but not least: Matthias Tanzmann and Luna City Express -- the central members of the Moon Harbour family. Inhouse Vol. 3 is not only a gift for Moon Harbour fans, but also for the label itself. Other artists include: Reboot, Agnès, Johnny D, and Dot.

MHR 041EP
|
Martin Swanstein aka Martinez, high-flying producer, DJ and label-head, presents two brilliant tracks for Moon Harbour. On "Le Cirkus," Martinez arranges different vocal samples into a rhythmic collage which builds a backbone of funk. "Mundial" has a percussive and intricate start, but quickly evolves into an easy-going and elegant house track, creating an incredible deepness by focusing on the essential.

"Support: M-nus crew, Onur Özer, Marco Carola, Karotte, Nick Curly, Anthony Collins, X-Pansul, Matt Star, Sebastian Roya, Alexy Delano, Dave Ellesmere. If the original Burning The Midnight Oil was already a blast in all minimal tech dancefloors, the remix records arrives with a new twist to keep the discos moving. Soulrack & Mikel_e present a fresh groovy track full of voice lines that'll go directly to a packed dancefloor. Seph moves around darker and more hypnotic territories with a continuous loop while Fabrizio Maurizi dives deep into old school, with some broken beats, distorted voices and numerous bleeps & clicks. A collection of hits that'll make the night vibrate. Long live Martinez!"

MHR 039EP
|
Copenhagen-based DJ and producer Martinez reflects the typical Scandinavian club sound that captivates by both its deepness and its clarity and this is reflected on his Moon Harbour debut. "Momomowha..." is an impulsive techno track, with various house elements. The beat pushes forward undeviatingly as vocal samples loop through the whole track, adding a funky touch. "Day By Day" is more obviously rooted in house music with a twisted beat that pushes forward against warm chords -- Martinez's deeper side.

RE 004EP
|
Martinez is back with the 4th installment in his Re:Connected series, delivering two more slamming techno tracks. The 12" starts off with "Expander," which is a powerful techno monster driven by a strong, rolling bass line hook that just expands into one heavenly climax. "Rotation" is a dark, hypnotic, minimal affair with a deep and pounding 808 kick drum, a heavy sub-bass and some well laid-down melodies, perfect for the warm-up of the late night club and the wee afterhours.

RE 001LP
|
Previously reissued on CD by Re:Connected, now issued on double LP format as well. This is the second full-length record by Copenhagen-based Martinez. This very special double pack vinyl edition includes 8 brand new tracks, all produced by Martinez during the spring and summer of 2007. You'll find the trademark sounds of Re:connected, in tracks such as "La Macchina," with its rolling hypnotic rhythm and bleepy metallic sounds. Martinez also adds some elements from his early influences of deep house with the track "Lowdown" -- its lush and laid-back pads lay out a deep but uplifting atmosphere to the otherwise dark soundscape of the album. There are also some trippy experimental dub grooves on tracks like "The Turtle-March," with that weird voice coming in and its tripped-out percussion flowing on top of a heavy sub-bass. A Chemical Imbalance is a sonic mood swing between ambient, minimal, techno, deep house and dub.

"Played by: Adam Beyer, Magda, Loco Dice, Tadeo, 2000 and One, Miss Kittin, Laurent Garnier, Joel Mull, X-Pansul, Matt Star. Groovie, dancefloor friendly and fresh is how the latest Martinez reference opens. It comes through Cray1labworks, again breaking frontiers, the Spanish label counts on the Danish genius Martínez, banner of Re:Connected, at the summit of current minimal. 'You' is an orgy of sound layers, frequencies and blurred voices. 'Stavanger' moves faster, with a vibrant percussion, overlapping and ever-changing. Dark minimal tech, remarkably complex & absolutely catchy. Perfect for even the most demanding clubs. 'Burning The Midnight Oil' opens with a rebellious force. Drums flying and bodies moving, the perfect mix between ritual & techno percussion. Suddenly it transforms into house: thick pads moving down your spine. And you are surrounded."

RE 001CD
|
This is the second full-length record by Copenhagen-based Martinez. It's been almost 2 years since the release of his debut album Internal Space on Out of Orbit. During those two years, Martinez's sound has developed and progressed into the more mind-bending and tweaked out fields of minimal techno music -- more stripped-down and focused on fewer elements rather than a lot of melodies and hook lines. With this new aesthetic in mind, he started the Re:connected sub-label of Out of Orbit, focused on quality minimal techno from the darker and freakier side of life. The first two releases got massive feedback from major players on today's dance music scene, such as Ricardo Villalobos, Miss Kittin, John Digweed, Dominik Eulberg, Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth. With such a success, Martinez decided to go into the studio and focus fully on this project. After a few more months of experimentation, A Chemical Imbalance was finally produced. Martinez chose to present the CD version of this album as a continuous mix, for the sake of flow and feeling. A Chemical Imbalance is mainly driven by the trademark sound of Re:connected. You'll find it in tracks such as "Tuna Belly" and "La Macchina," with their rolling hypnotic rhythm and bleepy metallic sounds. The album also includes the two mini-hits from the first 12" singles, "Sinus Wave" and "Land-Crab," which have a more shuffle-driven beat and strong, off-key pads. But for a change, Martinez also adds some elements from his early influences of deep house with the track "Lowdown," which is clearly a tribute to the classic Chicago imprint, Guidance Recordings. Its lush and laid-back pads lay out a deep but uplifting atmosphere to the otherwise dark and tweaked-out soundscape of the album. There are also some trippy experimental dub grooves on this record on tracks like "The Turtle-March," with that weird voice coming in and its tripped-out percussion groove flowing on top of a heavy sub-bass. A Chemical Imbalance offers lots of different moodswings between genres like ambient, minimal, techno, deep house and tripped-out dub elements, within a nicely-anchored continuous mix. This is the perfect album that works as a soundtrack to your everyday life.

3RD 006EP
|
"Martinez's first release on 3rd Floor Records is set to take the spitzenklasse quality of the label to unprecedented heights. The ball is opened with Martinez' trademark sound, but 'Mistlur' is nevertheless combining old and new sound -- thereby extending the reach of the Martinez fan base. Layering tons of hypnotic and enchanting sounds that twirls in and out on top of the warm driving bass line in perfect conjunction with the subtle theme play, this track is an absolute killer and we pity the fool who sits by without getting into a serious groove. 'Sliderglider' represents the minimal and bouncy sound on this 12". The primary bass line is deep and driving and requires plenty of room, but the accompanying effects and synths have a more minimal feel to them thus resulting in a very effective sound. Making sure no one is left alive on the dance floor, '101 Regards' finishes off this electronic slaughter in a very hypnotic and building fashion."

ORB 001CD

This is the Out of Orbit label's first CD release, providing a comprehensive and exciting mega-mix of their musical catalog, mega-mixed by DJ, producer and label-boss, Martinez. Techno has always been a musical genre driven by novelty and technology. Fast kicks and new sounds, feelings and experiences are what we cherish. The ability to project the listeners "out there" into the final frontiers of space and sound has always been the goal of all extraordinary techno music. To simply make a "normal" mix CD was never an option for Out of Orbit. Using cutting edge technology and displaying in what direction the future of mixing might take, Triple-O presents Restructured Layers, for people who have been looking for a way to enjoy their music in a comfortable way without getting into vinyl. Perfectly geared to fit in between both a sweaty club experience and a nice home listening session, this CD brings out the best of both worlds. This CD is an extension of Martinez' acclaimed DJ gigs, bringing you a world-class mix experience. With all their releases cut up into loops and pieces, Martinez has woven a beautiful and intricate carpet of sounds, putting two and two together in order to create something bigger and more beautiful than its mere parts: pure alchemy, in other words, with the full CD as a constant mix throughout the full 76 minutes. Blending pieces of up to 7 or 8 different tracks at the same time, you've never heard anything exactly like this, although Richie Hawtin's DE9|Closer To The (R)Edit would be the closest in terms of mixing technology. Triple-O has put down a lot of effort in order to bring you this next-step experience to and they are damn proud of what they have created. Featuring artists Phil Stumpf, Willie Graff & Kyle Errison, Martinez, Nima Gorji, Reynold, Lowtek Soundsystem, Zvukbroda, Dibaba, Mars Fellows, Felix Houzer, Jussi Pekka, Robert Babicz, Trentemøller, Cantrip People and Ibn Al-Khimyia.

AM 019EP
|
Copenhagen-based Martinez aka Martin Swanstein returns with a great new single on Audiomatique. The title-track is an amazing deep space track built up on a heavily dark bass and some extraterrestrial sound-gimmicks that make this an extraordinary trippy groove monster. "Woodenbox" on the B-side is as far out as the A-side, but a bit less dark. A cool sliding groove spreads a deep but slightly progressive feel. Two excellent tunes from Captain Martinez' spaceship -- now boarding.

ORB 022EP

"Continuing in the footsteps that were laid out in Dark Moon Rising, Martinez is back with a logical sequel. 'Polytone' is a dirty-ass phunkster styled in a irresistible 120 bpm groove with all the right trimmings. The lead hook rips you right up with its strange attractor type movements, performed by some sort of weird horn. 'You think this is real?' I'm afraid not. As we are moving further and further into dreamtime the definition of what's real will be best up to you to decide. Use it for your own well-meaning purposes. But whatever you do, don't stop dancing! The flipside offers us a deeper and slightly more subliminal flavour, in order to balance out the main side. The track 'Bedouins' has been one of Martinez's favourite unreleased tracks for the last year/8 months, a great workhorse that always delivers with its own blend of hypnotic magic wherever it gets aired."

"With a split EP showcasing two different but complementary sounds again, we hope there will be something in there for all of you. The A-side is a fierce and heavy dancefloor-burner of rare calibre, sure to rip up some dust in the outdoor season (it sure did last year) whereas the flip showcases some of the most deep, trippy minimal night-time journeys yet. A lot of people talk about trance these days. It has suddenly become the new fashion-word of the moment. Everyone and their mama now admit they've always been influenced by trance, listened to it etc. You all know what we are about here on Out of Orbit, although we haven't been bragging too much about it."
