In anticipation of the night on Feb 6th the Thirsty Ear boys kindly asked Roland Dubbs to do a minimix to be given away on the night.
The rules were simple; 5 tracks currently big in your box and no longer than 15 minutes.
So he obliged and came up with this little chibber....

Tracklist:
1. Hot City - If That's How I Feel
2. Helsinki 78-82 - Cruising
3. Martyn - These Words (Feat. dBridge)
4. Mosca - Nike
5. JJ - Pure Shores

Roland Dubbs - Thirsty Ear 5x5 Mini Mix Jan 2010 by RolandDubbs

From The Kites Of San Quentin

Remix of From The Kites Of San Quentin.
Definitely a band worth keeping your eyes and ears on. Hopefully they'll approve of this little effort!
I just took the track for a walk down the wonky side, nothing clever here people - just a wobbly bassline to wil' out to!!
Skank.

Martyn

I first came across Martyn a number of years back on a Fabric compilation mixed by High Contrast. As my music listening rotation swings back and forth from drum & bass to other forms of electonic music it's easy to lose track of artists from time-to-time.

I noticed over the last year or so that Martyn hasn't been making Drum & Bass per se, or rather what i've heard hasn't been deebee - (I may be wrong?). There has been odds and sods of dubstep and techno and the like, but not what I expected. A fleeting glance at his myspace address would lead you to believe he is making d&b, but a quick listen to the the tracks on his player would suggest otherwise...

Martyn's Myspace

After having an adventure through blogland over the last few days (no work - snow days FTW!) I found some links to some truly awesome songs by Martyn. Have a listen, I hope you'll agree.
