Kevin Richard Martin & KMRU

Kevin Richard Martin & KMRU

Kevin Richard Martin (The Bug) and KMRU (Joseph Kamaru) are proposing something new. The two electronic music heavyweights come from different worlds; Kevin Richard Martin’s is dark, deep, and gritty, whereas KMRU’s soundscapes are sparser, more open, and often more akin to the natural world. The British and Kenyan artists’ universes come together in ‘Disconnect’. Their debut collaboration sees them chart unexplored territory in a powerful study of dread, hope, and what it means to be made other. Sonically, it marries Martin’s deep-trawling dub with Kamaru’s poetry, voice, and ambient spatial sensibility.
