Seven years after the haunting resonance of Voids, electronic pioneer Martyn returns to the album format with Music For Existing. Arriving on 15 May 2026, the record is more than a collection of tracks; it is a profound exploration of what it means to remain devoted to a craft in an era of relentless noise.

The album’s announcement is heralded by the lead single "Heavy Sound." The track serves as the perfect bridge between Martyn’s past and present - a masterclass in tension and release that previews the album’s dialogue between the producer, the musicians, and the audience. We live inside a culture that has prioritised and monetised restlessness. The modern apparatus runs on the continuous production of "next," driven by algorithms that value novelty over depth.

Music For Existing serves as a love letter to the communal act of making music - something that is both healing and inherently defiant. For Martyn, a musician often finds solace in musical conversation with others; in the moment we press record, we simply exist together. This record is an invitation to build human infrastructure around what we love, leaning into the fluid nature of community and seeing exactly where the music takes us when we choose to listen.

The album is a sprawling, "off-the-grid" tapestry that echoes Martyn’s profound appreciation for jazz - free, instinctive, and bursting in every sonic direction. This collection features an expansive cast of collaborators, including Duval Timothy, Dan Only, Lucinda Chua, and Mark Cisneros. The record is further elevated by the contributions of jazz talents Mischa Porte and Cees Bruinsma, alongside the evocative words of writer and poet Musa Okwonga.

While the acoustic textures and improvisational spirit of this record may feel like a departure, they represent a homecoming. Jazz has always been ingrained in Martyn’s work; even in his most stripped-back club tracks, the DNA of swing, syncopation, and free-form structure was always present, if not always visible.

Music For Existing marks the beginning of an exciting journey that will continue from the studio to the stage, celebrating the radical act of existing in the moment.

Moods & Grooves Records proudly announces Turn-A-Round, the long-awaited return of
D. Wynn & The R-Tyme Production. Marking his first release since 2002 on KMS
Records, D. Wynn reconnects with the deeply soulful Detroit sound that defined his
earlier work—timeless, emotive, and built for the dancefloor.
At the center of the release is “Love Ain’t Easy”, a heartfelt, soul-driven track featuring
vocals from Record Time favorite Lavell Williams. The song carries special significance
as Williams’ final known musical recording prior to his passing in 2018, giving the record
both emotional weight and historical importance. The EP also includes “Use Me (U Turn
Remix)”, a fresh take on R-Tyme’s most recognized work—previously reimagined by Carl
Craig—alongside “Funk N The Drums,” a raw, percussion-heavy cut driven by deep funk
and rhythmic intensity.
A foundational figure in Detroit’s electronic music movement, D. Wynn was instrumental
in shaping the culture as part of the legendary Music Institute era, alongside pioneers
such as Derrick May, Alton Miller, and Chez Damier. As one half of R-Tyme with Derrick
May, he helped deliver seminal recordings including “Use Me” and “Illusion/R-Theme” on
Transmat, leaving a lasting imprint on the global electronic music landscape.
This is more than a comeback. It’s a continuation of a legacy.
