Chris and Steve Martinez are two of the youngest people in house music, but they've already scored one genuine club hit ('My Rendition'), wowed crowds at the Winter Music Conference and earned rave reviews for their energetic DJ sets as far afield as France. Some might call them a gimmick, the Hanson of house, but these cynics would be dead wrong: there is plenty of substance and talent to back up the novelty value of TMB.

And they are coming to rock the floor only @Mansion Club Bandung  *tepuktangan*

THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS

Crank up the computer and Google "the Martinez Brothers," and you'll be directed to chatrooms containing comments like "Oh my god, can these two fucking rock the house" and "They can mix their asses off"—not to mention postings along the lines of "They are the cutest ever." Such accolades would be impressive for any DJ, considering the backbiting that is the norm in the online dance-music community, but when you realize that the subjects of those notices, Steve and Chris Martinez, are still in their teens, it's remarkable. And considering that the Bronx-born and -raised sibs are working in the world of traditional, NYC-style soulful house—a scene generally populated by relative graybeards—it's downright mind-boggling

Steve and Chris's musicality is evident in their DJ sets, which tend to combine electronic "techie" tracks with more traditional NY flavored deep, vocal house and classics. Their sets are frequently augmented by the brothers' own instrumental work as was the case at both Shelter and to a greater extent 718 Sessions. "Some of the time, my brother will be on the keys and I'll be on the decks, and some of the time I'll be on the keys and he'll be on the decks," Chris says.

Despite (or maybe because of) the Martinez Brothers' talent, there are bound to be some who question the duo's grounding in the traditional house scene. "There have been a few people who have had a kind of attitude, like, 'What could these guys know about this music? How can they know about the Garage?'" Steve says. "It's kind of oxymoronic: They say there aren't enough young people involved with this kind of music, but when they see some young kids doing it, they complain. It's not our fault that we were born after the Garage closed! For the most part, though, people really show us a lot of love."
Supporter #1 of the TMB mission is Dennis Ferrer, whose Objektivity label provides the outlet for their productions. Ferrer currently has them studying the A's and B's of engineering and production and their debut production "My Rendition" which is more on the techie side of things dropped heavy on Objektivity last December. They plan on keeping their palette of musical references as open as possible though and plan on recording a vocal record next.

The other man who has been showing the love is old pro Danny Krivit who recently invited them to play at his hugely successful NYC shindig 718 Sessions at Club Deep in NYC. "I feel like they're touching upon all the history this music has, as opposed to most kids, who are just into this momentary, what's-happening-now kind of thing," he says. "For them to grasp on to such a wide variety of music at their age is quite unique—and I think it bodes well for this scene's future."

Long live TMB and the future of New York house music.
