What do Dr Dre, Barry Manilow and Tito Puente have in common?

At first glance, there aren’t many similarities between Dr Dre (the Hip Hop Surgeon), Barry Manilow (Prince of Vegas), and Tito Puente (the King of Latin Rhythms). Their music doesn’t occupy the same radio playlists, or for that matter, many of the same iPods. Most people would probably have one in their iPods, but not all three. So what do these artists have in common? They have all utilized the Martin Brother Horns.

Accomplished music producers in their own right having spent the better part of the last 25 years in LA recording studios, the Bros. today announced an innovative web-based recording service for professional musicians at www.MartinBrotherHorns.com.

The site caters to the growing home recording boom allowing musicians to produce quality recordings across all genres and musical styles on their home computer systems letting them concentrate on the music rather than the logistics of the recording process.

“It’s as easy as downloading tunes from iTunes!!” says Scott Martin.

Artists and producers simply upload or send in digital copies of their rhythm tracks, The Bros. then record their horn sounds and send them back over the Internet. The artist then has a complete, high quality horn section sound added to their project without the hassle and expense of hiring a studio, an engineer, an arranger, etc.

“We will never [completely] replace the professional recording studio,” says Andy Martin, “but we are hoping to provide a service to make it easier to access professional horn players.”

“If you want three of the best horn players to spice up your recordings, don’t settle for fake, synthesized horn sounds,” adds Stan Martin.

The Martin Brother Horns are three brothers who grew up in Long Beach, CA. steeped in music of all kinds. Their father, Dave Martin is a trumpet player who was an inspiration in their musical upbringing. “We used to watch our dad having a great time with his friends playing jazz at the house” Says Stan Martin, the trumpet playing brother. “That inspired us to continue our own musical aspirations.” “Besides jazz, we were exposed to a lot of styles of music” adds Scott Martin, “Everything from Mozart to Van Halen… and everything in between.”

The Martin Brother Horns, as they are collectively referred to, include Stan Martin on trumpet, Scott Martin plays saxophones and Andy Martin plays trombone. Other artists that they have played and recorded with are wide and varied. Ray Charles, Celia Cruz, Quincy Jones, The Gap Band, Poncho Sanchez, Tony Bennett, Tom Jones, The Pussycat Dolls, American Idol are just a few of the artists that you may have seen or heard them perform with.

The Martin Brother Horns have launched a website providing recording services over the internet (www.MartinBrotherHorns.com). It is a site that caters to the growing home recording boom that allows people to make quality recording on their home computer systems. “They will never replace the professional recording studio” remarks Andy Martin, “but we are hoping to provide a service to make it easier to access professional horn players.” The idea is, artists and producers send the Martin Brother Horns their rhythm tracks. The brothers then record their horn sounds and then send them back over the internet. The artist then has a complete, high quality horn section sound added to their project without the hassle and expense of hiring a studio, an engineer, an arranger, etc…. just high quality Martin Brother Horns as a download. “It’s as easy as downloading tunes from iTunes!!” says Scott Martin.

The Martin Brother Horns are ready to provide great horn sounds to meet any musical style. As Stan Martin remarked “If you want three of the best horn players to spice up your recordings, don’t settle for fake, synthesized horn sounds, contact the Martin Brother Horns!!”
