Martyn will take the reins of fabric's mix series early next year.

The producer has had an enormous 2009 by any standard, releasing his Great Lengths LP to critical acclaim, and remixing the likes of Fever Ray, Efdemin and Shed along the way. The Dutch DJ dons a typically wide-ranging hat for his fabric mix, moving deftly between dubstep and techno, taking in tracks from Joy Orbison, Zomby, DJ Bone and Levon Vincent. Says Martyn, "I did the whole mix CD live just because I thought that was more honest than doing an Ableton DJ mix. It is how I would play live—not everything on the CD is perfect, but it’s not meant to be....Fabric on Saturdays is mostly about four-to-the-floor; my music may not always be so straight up but at the root of it all there's my house/techno background....For me fabric 50 is sort of a temporary moment in time rather than the definitive Martyn mix, because I have been gigging so much over the past year, my sound has gradually moved a little bit more to straight up house and techno related music."

Thu, 04 Feb 2010Excellent. The addition of Levon Vincent and Actress tells you all you need to know.

FYI, Martyn's lecturing at this year's Red Bull Music Academy and potentially performing at one of our big events... Keep 'em peeled, there'll be some wicked content at the end of it all.

I can still appreciate the off the cuff style, but I think the style of mixing here is quite thoughtless in terms of thematics. I'd rather a big name drop an ableton mix that really showcases the thought process behind the mixing talent then just some stream of consciousness mixing that shows you are decent at beatmatching but not keying/resolving or progressing.



Well IMO the keying and progression is great here too - I know this is an 'off-the-cuff'-style mix, but... More

Tue, 26 Jan 2010Not a huge fan of the mix overall, but it is what he remarks it to be - off the cuff, train of thought dj'ing.
Definitely good for what it is, not a 4.5 by any means at all, I would put it at a solid 3/5 as I really couldn't care about 40% of this mix whatsoever.
