Emerging from the renowned Atjazz Record Company, TrueSelf has carved a distinct place for himself within the electronic music scene. His journey with the label has been marked by creative evolution, collaboration, and a dedication to pushing sonic boundaries.

Introduced to electronic music at the age of seventeen, TrueSelf quickly found inspiration in pioneering labels such as Warp Records, Tru Thoughts, Ninja Tune, and Mo’Wax. What began as an after-hours passion for DJing and production soon developed into a lifelong pursuit of sound exploration and artistic expression.

Throughout his career, TrueSelf has performed alongside some of the industry’s most respected names, gracing stages at iconic venues including Back to Basics at Stinky’s Peephouse, Stealth, The Rainbow, The Custard Factory, Ministry of Sound, Mint Club, and on the Mixmag Tour, as well as at international events.

While his roots are deeply grounded in House music, TrueSelf’s creative approach defies boundaries. In both his productions and DJ sets, he blends the electronic with the organic — weaving together soulful guitar licks, analogue synths, and textured rhythms to create music that resonates with emotion and authenticity. His sound is not just heard, but felt — a reflection of his true self.

Martin Rob handley grew up in a small town of Ashbourne UK. In His early teens when the rave scene kicked off in the UK he would get LP singles and play on his hi-fi, this is where his love of dance music first began. At 17 in 1998 Martin bought his first set of decks and immediately became addicted to mixing. Collecting thousands of records and getting gigs in bars and clubs. The trance and EDM scene was really kicking off and at it’s best. With Martin’s inspirations Paul Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten and Paul Van Dyk bringing out and playing some of the best Trance ever made. 
In 2008 Martin decided to give producing a shot. With basic software he decided he had an ear for making music making his first track Rendezvous. As time has gone on and his music has grown into something that represents his early years of music. The uplifting, energetic, driving baselines and euphoric breakdowns that makes Martin’s music stand out from the rest.
