Martyn Young

Martyn is a music writer based in Scotland. Specializing in anything idiosyncratic, brutally aggressive or all out weird he has experience of writing about a wide range of music old and new. Martyn's words can also be read in This Is Fake DIY magazine and in his regular hip-hop column for The 405. If there is one principal that Martyn applies to music then it is always to listen with an open mind and be prepared to investigate that little bit deeper in search of undiscovered or unheralded gems.
