Born and raised in the Bronx, NY, The Martinez Brothers are two of the most consistent and recognizable names in the world of house.  Stevie and Chris continue to push themselves creatively in the studio collaborating with global and Latinx artists such as Rauw Alejandro, Fuego, Rema and Tokischa. 

In 2023, we find The Martinez Brothers in a moment of creative renewal, kicking off an exciting new chapter in their illustrious career. They continue to cast a wide net with their collaborations, stepping into the studio with a new generation of artists like Eliza Rose, Tommy Genesis and Mochakk.  

The brothers are furthering their love affair with Ibiza in their second year residency at Hï Ibiza voted #1 Club in the World, after 10 years as residents at Circoloco, Ibiza. Paying homage to the isle that catapulted them to stardom, it was in Ibiza that they met Riccardo Tisci who brought them in to do the music design for his iconic years at Givenchy (2014-2015). 

Last year, the brothers headlined London’s hottest show of the year at Beams warehouse alongside Skepta, who debuted his first house music DJ set in his hometown.  Alongside this, they played the Met Gala afterparty hosted by Dua Lipa and at LOEWE’s Paula’s Ibiza pop up at the Sheats-Goldstein home in LA. 

In 2023 stage hosts include Kappa Futur Festival in Turin, Italy, Panorama Festival in Southern Italy, Eastern Electrics, London, Fabrik, Madrid, Audio Obscura at Amsterdam Dance Event and III Points Festival, Miami. 

The duo are avid sneaker collectors and vinyl record collectors, from all eras of Latin salsa, disco, funk, soul, jazz house and techno.

BIOGRAPHY:
Student dorms aren’t the usual catalyst for great musical achievements, but this is where Mark and Lars – better known as LarryKoek – started their own musical journey. 

They literally arose in the 80’s when two cute little baby boys where born somewhere in The Hague. Soaked with musical influences from these days the baby’s developed rather quickly in to real music lovers. 

After a few years of independent exploration, the LarryKoek duo formed in August 2014. The first eye-opening work of these two Dutchmen sparked the interest of record label Be Yourself Music and led to the release of summer anthem ‘’Honeybee’’ on Dirty Soul records. 

They created a unique funky sound in nowadays dance music, filled with guitar riffs, disco rhythms and catchy vocals.
