Débuts
Tucker Martine, le fils du chanteur et compositeur Layng Martine, Jr. [1] a grandi à Nashville, Tennessee, où il a joué dans des groupes et bricolé avec des appareils d'enregistrement avant de déménager à Boulder, Colorado après avoir obtenu son diplôme d'études secondaires. Dans le Colorado, Martine était DJ dans une radio publique KGNU. Il jouait fréquemment deux disques ou plus à la fois sur les ondes. Martine a également suivi des cours à l'Institut Naropa où il a étudié le collage sonore et s'est lié d'amitié avec Harry Smith - l'ethnomusicologue, artiste et kabbaliste - qui a eu une grande influence sur Martine.
Carrière
En 1993, Martine a déménagé à Seattle, dans l'État de Washington, où il a commencé à combiner ses compétences et ses intérêts. Il a rejoint le groupe de chambre de Wayne Horvitz, The 4 Plus 1 Ensemble, aux côtés de Reggie Watts, où l'instrument de Martine était une série de dispositifs de bouclage et de manipulation du son, alimentés par les autres instruments acoustique du groupe. Martine a reçu une nomination aux Grammy en 2007 dans la catégorie "meilleur album d'ingénierie" pour l'album Floratone avec Bill Frisell sur Blue Note. Il a également sorti plusieurs albums de ses enregistrements de terrain. En tant que compositeur et musicien, Martine a sorti deux albums sous le pseudonyme d'enregistrement Mount Analog ainsi que Mylab (une collaboration avec le claviériste Wayne Horvitz) et Orchestra Dim Bridges (avec l'altiste Eyvind Kang). De plus, Microsoft a fait appel à la créativité de Martine lorsqu'ils lui ont demandé d'aider à composer les sons de démarrage et de marque pour le nouveau système d'exploitation de Microsoft Vista[2]. Aujourd'hui, Martine vit à Portland et continue de faire des disques dans son propre studio Flora Recording & Playback.
