Martyn's 'Ghost People'

Dutch/D.C. producer Martyn releases his sophomore album this week wherein he seamlessly blends Dubstep, House and Techno into a darkly impersonal soundtrack. On 'Ghost People' he is balancing his jetset DJ life with these productions displaying the less trendy invocations of the aforementioned genres which gives us a look into the home producers mindset in contrast to his funky, broken beat live sets and Fabric outings. It is, according to the press release, a lot less concerned with “sorrows and melancholy” than Martyn’s first album Great Lengths.

The title, Ghost People, is a reference to “passionless DJs and producers … plastic, hollow shells that focus only on the in-the-now grooves or keeping in line with trends.” Another heavy influence on the record is “being on the road for a long time, and seeing how you cope with situations … I try to zen my way through it, and just stay focussed on my music.”
