STROBE LIFE SESSIONS 049 with special guest MARTIN ROTH
Martin Roths ascent through the ranks of trance musics biggest stars has been somewhat meteoric.
In the past twelve months his remixes for Paul Van Dyk on The Other Side, Thrillseekers on By your Side, Keane Last Time and Blank & Jones on Perfect Silence and Mind of the Wonderful have pricked the ears of every major DJ, A&R guru and trance music follower across the globe.
The thirty one year old Frankfurt based DJ / producer made his breakthrough in the trance scene over two years ago with a remake of Cygnus Xs classic track The Orange Theme, receiving huge coverage from the major DJs. Around the same time, Paul Van Dyk discovered Martins track Energize, released under the project name Technopunk and remixed it for his own label Vandit, resulting in a huge amount of interest in Martins productions. Martin was then asked by Paul to remix another track Jose Amnesia vs. Serp Second Day for his Vandit which went on to become another successful release. Promos of Martins new single Shockwaves received huge responses from the leading DJs and Martins reputation as a seriously consistent producer continued to build.
Behind the DJ booth the same natural talent is purveyed. Using a combination of vinyl, CD decks and the revolutionary Ableton Live software allows Martin to blur the borders between DJing and live performances, creating a unique experience for the crowds who travel to see him perform.
But Martin isnt such a newbie as you might think. If you dig a little deeper youll find the man behind many successful projects under many different aliases spanning many genres confirmed his great versatility as an artist and accumulating over quarter of a million vinyl sales over the past decade. Fans of harder edged music will remember Martin as one of the key elements in the global success of German label and Scot Project associated concept Overdose Recordings, where Martin achieved admirable success under aliases including DJ Wag, Y.O.M.C, DJ Overdog and Yakooza.
With his own name now set as his main pseudonym firmly established as hot future trance phenomenon, Martin is looking forward to great success in 2006 with UK DJ performances already lined up for superclubs including Godskitchen, The Gallery and Passion and international tours in Australia, across Asia, North America and across East and Central Europe the future looks very promising for trances man of the moment.
"Ever since I got a bootleg mix of Keane I've been a big fan of Martin's sound. It's still trance but for grown ups. A big sound for big floors!" - Armin Van Buuren
"Martin Roth is one of the few German artists with a continuous output of the highest level of creativity" - Paul van Dyk
