Hannah Holland brings her Star of Bethnal Green ‘Bastard Batty Bass‘ party to the ex-warehouse, Shoreditch venue: the Black Lotus Karate Club on Saturday 19th September.
If you’ve been to any of her shows, then you’ll be awarded no prizes for guessing the format of her repertoire. The successful London DJ accompanied by her ‘3 Wise Batty Bitches’ will undoubtedly be keeping the night banging with their signature raw bass lines and dancehall-influenced electro.
Dropped into the mix however, are the fresh-faced house sensations The Martinez Brothers. The masses remain undecided as to the credibility of these New York boys. With one camp firmly supporting their exponential rise to super-DJ stardom and the other left unconvinced, the jury is clearly still out on whether they are flash-in-the-pan gimmicks or the real deal.
The Martinez Brothers begun their journey in New York and rose to fame spinning old school/classic house music despite being in their nappies at the height of the scene. Both Steve and Chris were part of their church band and can both play a few instruments between them. Now at 16 and 20 years old respectively, the brothers have credited their father as well as Dennis Ferrer (who’s Objektivity label they are signed to) as major influences. Their undeniable energy has become synonymous with their sets and critics have gone as far as to compare them to MAW.
So far, they have a handful of years behind them, whether they stand the test of time and prove their worth or not – I’d say its worth checking them out and deciding for yourself… As they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
