Kevin Martin gained notoriety during the 1990s as part of Techno Animal, a group he founded together with ex-Napalm Death and Godflesh member Justin Broadrick. Exploring the stylistic boundaries of hip hop, industrial and electronica for almost a decade with Techno Animal, Martin started his solo project The Bug in 1997. The project hit its stride by 2003, with The Bug's debut album 'Pressure' appearing on Klein Records and Rephlex. Martin's noisy take on dubstep and ragga breaks - frequent collaborators include Warrior Queen and MC Flowdan - has since been signed to Coldcut's influential Ninja Tune label.

The Compilation Ninja Tune XX (Volume 1)
was reviewed:
Two decades of Ninja Tune! Founded in 1990 by Matt Black and Jonathan More, known to most as Coldcut, the London-based imprint has had a tremendous influence on dance music culture as we know it. From DJ tools to trip-hop, from drum'n bass to dubstep, the iconic label has had a hand every dance music movement of the past 20 years within the field of broken beats.Determined to celebrate in style, the Ninja Tune crew has compiled an absolutely massive two-volume anniversary compilation including a total of 62 tracks, around 95% of which are made up of new and unreleased material.
The wealth and quality of music on display here is almost impossible to put in words. Volume 1 contains exclusives by artists like Zomby, Diplo, Benga, Rustie, Amon Tobin, Roots Manuva, Deadelus, and many, many more, making this an indispensable collection.
Volume 2 of the series comes equally recommended, featuring highlights such as Autechre's version of The Bug's 'Skeng' and Mala's immaculate dub of Andreya Tiana's 'A Town Called Obsolete'. Fans of classic Ninja Tune sounds should further check out the label's two 'Retrospect' compilations, containing a massive 40 tracks each.
The Ninja Tune crew must have spent many sleepless nights to compile all this and must be highly commended for a stunning selection of music. Essential material.
