  • Martyn has today released a collection of archival music called GL Outtakes via his own 3024 label. The music on the seven-track compilation, which has been recently edited and mastered, was first made when the Dutch artist was putting together his 2009 album, Great Lengths. "Nowadays, the fusion of different genres has become the norm and new hybrid forms are invented all the time," says Martyn. "However, it's sometimes hard to imagine that this was quite unique ten years ago. Several producers such as 2562, Peverelist, TRG, Appleblim, Headhunter and myself built on the bass-heavy foundations of dubstep pioneers such as Digital Mystikz, Kode9, El-B and the Big Apple crew, bringing sounds from techno, broken beat and other styles into the mix." Martyn adds: "These seven tracks are experiments of this exact process.They're more tracky and monotonous than my other music from that era, but after rediscovering them I felt they had a connection with some of the new music I have been doing this year." The producer also confirmed he has a new album coming out through Ninja Tune early next year. Listen to "Ultra."
