The Trouble with Justin Martin

Another exhausting but ridiculously fun weekend done with. Love to the Time Out London crew for Fridays party and big ups to Tom Boogaloo Crew Edwards and Mr Heir Max who joined me on Saturday at the Big Chill House for another riotous Zulu Tea Party session.

On to the next weekend it is then, and we are more excited than an excited thing on international get excited day for this one.

Trouble Vision returns this Friday with a standardly Trouble Visonable line up including Julio Bashmore, Jackmaster, Loefah, Wookie and Dark Sky all joining us chaps and fellow residents Mr Solid Gold, Park Ranger, Hesseltime, Hylu and Jago on the wheels of steel for what is looking to be another sell out rave pit.

Also headlining this instalment of Trouble Vision and causing a large amount of the pre party excitement in my eyes is San Fransisco based producer and Dirty Bird family member Justin Martin. Justin Martin has been one of our favorite producers for a very long time and we are super hyped to sharing the bill with such a house legend. The anticipation in hearing his set on The Corsica Studios sound system is also making me a little moist to be honest.

His first release "Sad Piano" on Buzzin Fly back in 2003 all the way though to his latest original track (alongside Ardalan) "Mr Spock" on Dirty Bird records drip with quality and his large crunchy but groove stepping tracks always smash the dance floor. An element of not taking things too seriously on the samples and sounds used within his tunes (as well as life in general) is always apparent and results in a sound that distinguish Justin from the pack as well as resulting in some seriously good mix tapes.

To get you in the mood (and to make sure you get on that ticket now) we have compiled a selection of Justin Gems for you to shower your ear holes with over the next few days. The conditioning will both allow your ears to adjust to the onslaught of Friday's serious amounts of fun as well as refresh your mind as to what a legend Justin Martin is.

Definitely get on the DL with Justin's Mini Mix for Annie Mac, his essential mix for BBC radio one from last year as well as a cheeky free down load of his "Nude" remix all on the Sound Cloud links below. We've also included a YouTube audio play of Sad piano.

Enjoy and hopefully see you all at Corsica Studios this Friday. (tickets here http://tinyurl.com/TVApr )
