An OG in the rock music production world in my neck of the woods, Greg S. Martin, has been wheelchair-bound for quite a while and I persuaded him to come out of retirement with our new collaboration called Mr. Quiet.

A slow techno, or maybe a psytrance track, with a subtext about growing old, and how it’s “pretty brutal.”

I recorded Greg during a visit when I was trying to get him to admit himself to the hospital. We considered re-recording the spoken word so it would be clearer, but I felt the immediacy of his slurred speech made it that much more authentic.

The Mr. Quiet collaboration between myself and Martin is a labor of love and also has a mission of creating some intense, pretty brutal dance music. Cuidado.

I’ve uploaded the spoken word and the synth lead for samples.
