Martyne Fabric Mix

If you ever get talking to the local crowd at Robert Johnson, one of the first parties you’ll hear about is Traffic. Founded and centred in the undercurrent of Frankfurt’s bubbling techno scene, Traffic started out as a label back in 2013, leading the city’s individualist flair first started by minimal labels like Perlon in the late 90s.

Martin Müller, the artist known as Martyné, is one of the collective’s core members. He’s released 5 EPs on Traffic, each one stylistically different but all borrowing from the same pool of sounds. Crossing twisted minimal techno and electro via crisp broken beats and rolling tech house, you’d be forgiven for mistaking one of his records for a forgotten weapon from the 90s.

This inclusive approach to making music translates in Müller’s DJ sets. Like many of his Frankfurt peers, deep digging forms the basis of his musical ethos. Before he joins Frankfurt powerhouse Cocoon’s takeover on 4th May, he sent us a mix that shows off his label’s quirky flair.
