Joel Martin was clearly bitten by a radioactive piece of vinyl while very young - a music lover first and foremost, his curiosity for obscure wax soon led to plans of compiling mixes and re-issuing long lost gems. As DJ Zeus, he started 'Consume Music', for mixes like 'Esoteric Disco' and 'Fragments Of Fear' with fellow undercover vinyl slave Maxxi. It was a natural progression from collector to production duo with Matt Edwards aka Radio Slave, as the two of them started re-constructing warm, dubby, psychedelic breaks into slo-mo poolside nuggets under the name Quiet Village. After some tantalizing 12"s on Whatever We Want records, and killer remixes for the likes of Allez Allez, Francois K and Gorillaz, the full blown 'Silent Movie' LP was finally released this year, and won plaudits around the globe for it's cinematic sense of space and depth.
