Marv The Marsh

Marv The Marsh aka Marvin The Martian is a Brixton born rapper who is largely credited as the inventor of the musical genre grindie. Having sampled Art Brut's 'Emily Kane' to create 'Stay Off The Kane' (a song released as a free download through Artrocker.com in 2005) many journalists coined the term Grindie to mean the fusion of Grime and Indie music. Marv The Marsh has since sampled Columbia Records signed band GoodBooks' track 'Walk with Me' as well as ungerground band Kalev with his group Why Lout? but largely rejects the genre as a tag for his music.

Marv The Marsh signed a pioneering deal with Universal Records in 2005 which has seen the release of an E.P (Hoods & Badges) and a forthcoming single 'I Hate My Job' to be released in October 2006.

Marvin The Martian releases his as yet untitled debut L.P through No Carbon/ Universal Records in September 2007 following controversial single release 'Guns Of Brixton' which is a take on The Clash's classic single.

On December 3rd he plans to release his new single 'Get By (Be Good)' with an accompanying video, which can be seen on youtube here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUhq-rjvICQ]
