Wir sind froh heute Abend im Bohannon als Gast Martsman zu begrüssen, dessen Releases auf Exegene, Plain-Audio und natürlich Offshore schon viele begeistert haben.

Martsman got into Drum & Bass around 1998, when Goldie released “Saturnz Return”. Together with Roni Size’s famous “New Forms”, these two pivotal albums were his introduction to the music.
Artists like Sonar Circle, Alpha Omega and Squarepusher had a formative influence on him during that time and after witnessing a Paradox live set around 2001, his ever growing interest in Drum & Bass evolved to the point where he began to produce his own music.

His vinyl debut in 2005 on New York based Leftfield flagship Offshore Recordings as well as digital releases on net-labels Exegene and Plainaudio have received recognition from all over the Leftfield scene. For 2006, new tracks and Remixes are already scheduled for Offshore, Bassbin/Breakin and Counter Intelligence amongst others.

With his affection for prominent basslines and stumbling breaks in combination with glitchy edits and bleepy minimalism, Martsman has developed a unique musical style which extends and transcends the current perception of Drum & Bass.

Falls ihr Martsman nicht kennt, hier sind zwei Links zu Netlabel EPs auf den beiden besten Drum & Bass Netzlabeln von ihm:
Martsman - Genom (Plainaudio /009)
Martsman - Roads / Blob (Exegene / 028)

Ansonsten noch dabei die BBC Residents Bleed und (the incredible return of…) Wan 2
