Out Today/ Tomorrow: Martyn | ‘Ghost People’

You can now hear an an exclusive stream of the new album from Martyn, Ghost People, via the good folks with Mixmag. This is Martyn’s first full-length foray out of the world of his own label, 3024, finding the producer on Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder imprint.
As is to be expected, these tracks pretty clearly straddle that ever-dissolving line between the worlds of dubstep and techno (and even house, in this case), and sound like someone’s been listening to a lot of old school Detroit techno in the last year. As it is, there’s very little Martyn makes that doesn’t sound clearly derivative, but he does so with such skill that it would be hard to fault him for making his influences plain. This isn’t a stale-out-of-the-box throwback, but rather an incredibly refreshing rehashing of some crowd favorites that are very dancefloor-friendly.
The album is out today and tomorrow, October 10/11, depending on where you live, and is already available via Bleep (who’ve written a particularly interesting review of the album). Meanwhile, you can preview the entire release below.
