djmartinsmith Martin Smith Torquay My love of house music started pretty much at the same as the music itself in the late 80′s. A mate and I would mix sets at the local youth club in our village and this fuelled a dream of DJing on a larger scale. From the early days of playing in commercial clubs I became known for playing the more upfront/underground house music of the day. This included early Acid House and I went on to play at other local clubs during the early 90′s such as Claires & The Monastery in Torquay, Voltz and Warehouse in Exeter and also ‘Scream’ at the Warehouse in Plymouth The ‘Full Tilt’ night at Claires in Torquay is where I really made a name for myself in the area playing warm-up sets for Nick Warren, Jody Wisternhoff, Rocky & Diesel, Mark Wilkinson, John Digweed, Dave Seaman, Lisa Loud, Clive Henry, Billy Nasty and more. Following successful sets in Torquay, I went on to play in Plymouth in the late 90′s for the area’s biggest dance music night, ‘Scream’ at the Warehouse/Oz. Regular dj’s on the night were Sasha, John Digweed, Paul Oakenfold and many more big names. I was also part of Torquay-based studio and helped create Slapback Records with Dave Parkinson [now a top studio engineer for Toolroom] and produce our own music that also gained play and support from Judge Jules at KissFM. Since those days I've been grateful to have played some great gigs at venues in the UK, France and in 2010 playing in Ibiza with 2 sets on the main stage at Ibiza Rocks Hotel. In July 2011 I returned to Ibiza to play for Lost in Ibiza, Soundfarm studios with Emulator and also at the massively popular Kanya on sunset strip. I've been a regular in Les Deux Alpes and Alpe D’Huez during winter and summer seasons playing nights at Smithy’s Tavern, Le Breslien, Mini Bar, L’Avalanche Club and also at the legendary Pano Bar situated on the mountain playing banging sets to around 2000 people surrounded by snow! In the UK during the summer months I would host Terrace parties at Torquay Pavilion which has a view to die for! I had two shows for online radio station KlimakzFM every Wednesday and Thursday at 7pm-8m creating almost 100 shows. More recently over the last couple of years I've been providing monthly resident mixes for Andrew Eastough's Deeper Sounds show on Mixlr and we've also played parties in Manchester and Ibiza together. Upcoming gigs in 2016 with Deeper Sounds at Ministry of Sound, London in February and Egg, London in March.
