Donny Carr steps into HIGHER STATES with a bold 2-piece musical statement.

Known for genre-blurring explorations that unite deep, progressive, techno, and classic house, Utah-based music producer Donny Carr is the latest artist to align with the HIGHER STATES vision. A former saxophonist turned producer, Carr brings over 15 years of live-performance experience to high-level studio precision, resulting in a sound defined by groove, atmosphere, and instrumental soul.

His debut on HIGHER STATES aligns seamlessly with Roger Martinez’s musical vision: deeply textured, emotionally resonant progressive music with heart and drive. Within this perspective Carr however completely weaves his own distinct sonic trajectory, balancing great technical finesse with profound emotive resonance. Expect this release to stand as both a creative leap for Carr and a milestone in genre innovation.

Roger Martinez stands as a visionary force within the electronic music scene. Known for trance-inducing DJ sets and unique, chart-topping productions, he stands out as one of today’s most distinctive and talented artists. 

Growing up in the pulse of Amsterdam’s club scene during the late ’90s and early 2000s, Roger absorbed the sounds of artists like Sasha, John Digweed, Carl Cox, Secret Cinema, Remy, Dimitri and Marcello. This immersive introduction ignited a passion for deep grooves and intricate soundscapes, setting him on a lifelong journey of musical exploration.

Roger’s performances are more than sets; they’re experiences. Often playing sets stretching across four mesmerizing hours, his shamanic perspective, using music as an alchemical force, transforms dance floors around the world. Revered for his signature 4-deck mixing style, Roger’s sets are pan-spectral, transcending genre and style, creating a unified sonic journey. For him, a club night or festival is a sacred ceremony where people come together to connect deeply through music, dance, and human connection.

His music has found a home on respected labels like Lost & Found, Sudbeat, UV, Plattenbank, Mango Alley, Tronic, and GEM Records. Through his own imprint, Higher States, Roger channels his unique musical visions and showcases other groundbreaking talents within the electronic music scene. His sound - a hypnotic fusion of ethereal atmospheres and trance inducing percussive rhythms - captures listeners and transports them to a place of profound introspection.

Roger Martinez is not just an artist; he’s a sonic storyteller, redefining the club experience and leaving a lasting impact on electronic music fans across the globe.
