i always like to think my stuff is music for a warm but rainy day . low frequencies do something to your muscles when you listen to them. there have been studies of low frequencies contracting your muscles, and because they contract certain muscles you have the urge to move, you know, to get rid of that itchy feeling in your arms and legs. so that would be a reason to dance. hailing from eindhoven, which back in the day had ties with many chicago and detroit artists and labels. i think what makes music interesting is when an artist incorporates his/her influences and translates it into a unique sounding style. although it might sound a tad arrogant, i d like to think of my music as martyn music . i try not to think of it as dubstep or techno, or house or drum & bass, it s not about genres, it s about music

the club watergate in berlin is one of the worlds most celebrated institutions for electronic music. led-ceiling, river view and high class-bookings anchored the club deeply into an international scene. to avoid remembering our ten year anniversary only fragmentarily due to the big festivities, our label-department took care of the physical manifestation from that decade. and this is how it goes: respected artists who have become friends over the last years produced 29 exclusive tracks for us. we offer these tracks as an unmixed double-cd with music from maceo plex, dop, soul clap, tiefschwarz, mathias kaden, our watergate-residents and many more.
