in the mid to late 1980's yeah
as pretty as the bend lower case letter S
like pixelated scraps of jazz mags in your headlights
watching belisha beacons next to zebra crossings
my 8 year old legs stick to leatherette seat coverings
watching belisha beacons through transparent things
like pixelated scraps of jazz mags in your head lights

While I'm a huge fan of electronic music, I love when these projects also introduce a narrative aspect. The unfolding history of Martin's musical journey adds such a wonderful dimension while listening to these albums. Not to mention the great visuals, too.

I lived and worked in Berlin the 80s. West Berlin. The legendary Hansa Studios. Heard rumours about Martin’s studio, and snippets of music. I never managed to connect with him though. So it’s a delight that his catalog is now being shared with the world. Sounding simultaneously timeless and futuristic. Thank you.
