Gabi Martin

DJ, music selector, announcer and program director. More than 20 years of booth behind me.

My story begins at the end of the 90s, in the original House that came out of Chicago and New York and exploded in Valencia. Since then I have learned a trade: reading a track. I have been a resident at Queen, Guru and Mokai and I have been through all the booths that matter in Valencia: Puzzle, The Face, Spook, Woody, Giorgio & Enrico, among many others.

My sound today is current House, Tribal and Tech-House. Sessions from now, in current format.

At the same time, I have always been linked to radio. I started at Planet Dance (Radio l'Horta) and Alto Voltaje (La Megaradio). Today I direct and present my own project: LA MALETA AMARILLA.

It was born from a need that I saw on my networks. People of my generation who asked me to listen again to that House that dominated the tracks from 98 to 2006. In La Maleta Amarilla I rescue vinyls from my personal collection, from French House to classics from American labels, to unlock memories. All 100% vinyl, needle and real story. A format that in 10 months has created an organic community of more than 3,000 followers and collaborations with top-level producers such as Kid Creme, Timo Maas and a long etc...

That same obsession with the original sound has led me to my new facet as an emerging music producer. After 20 years playing other people's albums, I am now producing my own edits and reworks of that nineties House respecting the analog sound but with current punch.

Two faces, the same root: in the booth, the current DJ. On FM and on social media, the selector that keeps the story in a yellow suitcase.
