Martyn Jackson “The People We Used To Be” Single Stream Exclusive

March 2, 2014

181197_539253439454873_186088271_nWe are delighted to introduce you to British talent Martyn Jackson.

Martyn is a compelling artist who fuses post-rock inspirations with his own touch. The instrumental unsigned artist is a must hear for anyone who loves Explosions in the Sky, This Will Destroy You and Sigur Rós. The musician hailing from Portishead, has already received positive praise for his remarkable 8 track album release ‘Home’ which saw the light of day in November of last year. The album itself was a breathe of fresh air and illustrates what this artist has to offer. The record made by just one person, sounds that of a 4/5piece band. Each orchestration is simply stunning and accumulates into a triumphant masterpiece.

We are thrilled to offer our lovely readers an exclusive stream of Martyn’s new track “The People We Used To Be”. Listen to the new composition streaming in it’s entirety below and fall in love with this artist.

Be sure to check back when we announce this track for free download on Martyn’s bandcamp alongside an alternate version of “Keep Your Eyes On The Tide” (Track 7 of “Home”).

You can listen to his album release ‘Home’ streaming in full below, available to download both digitally and physically now.
