GUEST MIX # 11
MARTIN GALE
7TH NOVEMBER 2020
SOUTHAMPTON, UK
ANOTHER HUGE SET FOR THE DISCOGRAPHY LESSONS THIS WEEK, IT COMES FROM HOUSE HEADS RADIO RESIDENT DJ, MARTIN GALE.
MARTIN LIVES ON THE SOUTH COAST OF ENGLAND IN A SMALL VILLAGE JUST OUTSIDE SOUTHAMPTON.
MUSIC HAS BEEN IN MARTIN’S BLOOD SINCE HE WAS SMALL, AND HE GREW UP FASCINATED BY THE ART OF DJING, ORIGINALLY BY STUDYING LOCAL MOBILE DJS. HIS FIRST “PROPER” DECKS ARRIVED IN 1994 AND HAVE BEEN PART OF HIS LIFE EVER SINCE.
MARTIN HAS PLAYED A VARIETY OF GENRES OVER THE YEARS FROM HARDCORE TO R&B BUT HOUSE MUSIC HAS ALWAYS BEEN HIS FIRST LOVE SINCE THE EARLY SAMPLE-BASED TUNES IN ’87/’88. DJING HAS TAKEN HIM INTO ALL SORTS OF PLACES OVER THE YEARS, FROM BARS AND CLUBS NOW ONTO RADIO WITH HIS WEEKLY RESIDENCY ON HOUSE HEADS RADIO.
ON HIS SHOW MARTIN HAS INTERVIEWED SOME OF THE TRUE LEGENDS OF HOUSE MUSIC INCLUDING ULTRA NATÉ, MICHAEL GRAY, CECE PENISTON, BABARA TUCKER & INAYA DAY TO NAME A FEW.
MARTIN’S PASSION IS NOT JUST THE MUSIC ITSELF, IT’S ALSO THE JOY OF PLAYING THINGS THAT MAKE PEOPLE REACT AND ENJOY THEMSELVES. HIS MIXES REFLECT THIS, FROM CONTEMPORARY SOULFUL HOUSE MUSIC TO HIS NOSTALGIC LOOKS BACK AT CLUB CLASSICS THAT STILL PLEASE THE CROWDS.
MARTIN ALSO HAS CHANNELLED HIS PASSION FOR MUSIC INTO PHILANTHROPIC PURSUITS, ESTABLISHING THE DISCO EFFECT CLUB NIGHT TO RAISE FUNDS FOR LOCAL CHARITIES.
WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS DISCOGRAPHY LESSON AS MUCH AS WE DO :)
