The list of their prestigious events also includes the legendary DC10 in Ibiza, where they were residents in 2012 and will be again in 2013. "We first started playing for them when they invited us to play a Life and Death party at Sonar in 2011... We were supposed to do another residency in Ibiza that summer but it didn't come through, so we thought 'freak it' lets go to Ibiza anyway. We ended up going to Circo Loco every Monday and they gave us a shot inside in August. Everybody loved it and next month we got a great slot on the Terrace... Last year we were residents and we literally couldn't believe it; DC10 was the place we always wanted to play but never expected to. Since we've been touring loads with Circo Loco - Brazil, Mexico, Italy, UK... We're starting to go around with them a lot." In 2011 they also started to do special back-to-back sets with Soul Clap, playing their first party at KaterHolzig in Berlin and naming the collaboration 'Soul Bros'. Together they play anything and everything -- from house to soul to RnB to disco, winding back to techno, drawing inspirations from all areas of their musical collections. They also started tag team sessions with Seth Troxler in 2012, playing the first set together at Movement Torino and more recently at the Circo Loco party at BPM festival in Mexico. These sets deliver a more straight up house and techno flavour, with a few curveballs thrown in. Release wise, they kicked off a new chapter in 2007, when Dennis Ferrer's Objektivity imprint released their first EP 'My Rendition', a powerhouse of a record which won the boys fans far beyond their initial boundaries of the soulful house scene, allowing them to step into a more modern, emerging deep house scene. They went on to produce their ironically named follow-up 'Debbie Downer' out in January 2009, with Berlin based Greek producer Argy and 'Where's Mr. Brown?' a hissing, techno track. In 2011 they released 'The Causeway / Issshhh' on Objektivity and in 2012 they released 'H 2 Da Izzo' on France's Real Tone Records -- a synth heavy, sexy and serious record all in one. In 2013, after an NYC studio lock-in "making beats" they already have two remixes slated: Santos Resiak 'A Better Light' (TMB's Cuttin' Headz Remix), released on Subb Ann's One Records and Burnski's 'Lost In The Zoo' (The Martinez Brothers Bronx Zoo Remix) out on Nic Fanciulli's Saved Records. At the forefront of a musical generation looking beyond boundaries -- new, old, house, techno, disco... whatever moves them - it's hard not to be drawn to the Martinez Brothers. Observing their infinite and innocent energy mixed with serious musical skills and knowledge, you can only watch and do just as they do, go with the flow...
