A painter, multi-instrumentalist, singer, writer, producer and DJ, Belfast-born Dominick Martin has spent the last 30 years simply creating. He’s done so with a sort of restrained melancholy that’s broad enough to encompass a myriad of tempos and genres. Over 24 albums, this includes his more song-based experimental LPs, from drum & bass into dub, techno, house, ambient, jazz, soul, blues and folk. The same can be said of his award winning DJ sets: Fluent within his own vast range, favouring the bookings where space and time allow him to draw out a narrative and provoke emotions, predominantly based on his own material. Calibre sets draw from his own personal spectrum, never resort to hype tactics and are perennially sprung with never-before-heard surprises. Often flanked and navigated by spiritual brother and creative sparring partner MC DRS - his role as a performer mirrors the extensive shades of his releases.
I am beyond hyped! Have been to the last two gigs Calibre played at Open Ground and I can confidently say I will catch him every single time going forward. A truly magical place, I cannot recommend it highly enough!
Today. Mark the day. I am going to start a foundation for disaffected youth across the UK . Giving my skills to the youth that need it. I will come back to this . Guaranteed.
