THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS
THURSDAY JULY 10
XXODUS CAFÉ | 11PM
Much ado has been made of the aging of the dance music generation, but bucking the trend are the Martinez Brothers, two churchgoing kids from the Bronx whose father turned them on to House music to steer them away from Hip Hop’s profane temptations. Under the tutelage of New York’s soulful house vanguard, they’ve found themselves regularly playing gigs like Shelter and Danny Krivit’s 718 Sessions. Their debut single, for mentor Dennis Ferrer’s Objektivity label, is probably the last thing their classmates are listening to.
