About Me

Luego de varios proyectos de bandas lanza en el 2002 Freestyle, su primer trabajo solista, el cual tuvo muy buena aceptacion y del cual nace el siguiente proyecto: Orquest, con quien edita un Lp en el 2005 junto con la realizacion de los clips de dos de sus cortes (disponibles en youtube.com/orquest). Ambos discos estuvieron producidos por Martin Van para su sello/productora indie “Esmero”. Paralelamente se mantuvo siempre involucrado en la produccion de otros artistas nacionales e internacionales como se puede apreciar en su sitio official: www.martinvan.com.ar El 2007 coincide la presentacion de 2do ep de 5 canciones con una exitosa gira patagonica de 2 meses. De regreso a Buenos aires y luego de 8 meses de gestacion, Martin Van presenta en sociedad su nuevo trabajo “Dopey Funny Sleepy Happy”, un Lp que intenta ubicar al oyente en un clima de calidez y sofisticacion, donde suaves texturas instrumentales conviven con influencias de jazz, hip hop y funk dando a la guitarra un protagonismo cuidado. ---------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- After to several projects involving music groups, Martin Van releases “Freestyle” in 2002, his solo debut which yields awesome reviews.
