Legends in the making, Christian and Steve Martinez, known as The Martinez Brothers, are a
testament to the vibrant pulse of house music. Born and raised in the rhythmic heart of The
Bronx, New York, they were spinning tracks before they could even legally enter the clubs they
electrified.
From their father's soulful selections of salsa, Latin jazz, and disco to holding court as residents
at the world-renowned DC10 in Ibiza since 2011, they've ascended to the pinnacle of house
music with lasting staying power. Their signature Latin-infused New York house and dynamic
tech house have become a clear, irresistible call to the dance floor, evidenced by their sold-out
show at London's Drumsheds in 2024. Their global impact was further cemented with a headline
appearance on Coachella's coveted Quasar stage in the spring of 2025.
As the co-owners of the illustrious Cuttin' Headz label, they've not only left their mark on the
decks but also the very fabric of the genre, collaborating with titans such as Louie Vega, Nile
Rodgers, and the fresh dynamism of Tokischa. Their consistent influence is also reflected in
their continued presence on DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs list.
Christian and Steve's story is one of musical destiny. Their childhood was rich in diverse
sounds, enabling them to hone their talents within the church band, master instruments, and
absorb the rhythms that would fuel their careers. They've seamlessly transitioned from local
talents to global phenomena, partnering with artists from Rauw Alejandro to Fuego and
captivating dance floors alongside Skepta and at afterparties for icons like Dua Lipa.
Ibiza has become a second home, with a decade-long residency at Circoloco and a recent
spellbinding stint at Hï Ibiza, the top-voted club worldwide. The Martinez Brothers are
synonymous with the island's hedonistic allure, bringing the Bronx's heartbeat to the Balearic
beaches. From Turin's Kappa FuturFestival to London's Eastern Electrics, Madrid's Fabrik to
Miami's III Points, they've commanded stages with an effortless cool that only true masters
possess.
Their influence extends beyond the music realm into the world of high fashion, marking them as
true cultural tastemakers. The brothers have cultivated notable relationships and collaborations
with prestigious brands, including DKNY, Carolina Herrera, Fendi, New Era, Givenchy, Boss,
and Louis Vuitton, further solidifying their status as multifaceted artists with a keen eye for style.
Offstage, they're incredibly charismatic and well-cultured collectors of sneakers, vinyl, vintage
threads, and audio gear. Yet, they're family men at their core, never straying far from their roots
or the beat that unites us all.
