Producer Martin ‘Youth’ Glover

Martin Glover, 27 December 1960, Africa. This highly respected and versatile UK-based producer and remixer is the bass player from seminal post-punk band Killing Joke. He has produced or remixed for a diverse range of artists, including the Verve, Embrace, Crowded House, Zoe, P.M. Dawn, the Orb, The Irresistible Force, U2, Bananarama, INXS, James, Wet Wet Wet, the Shamen, Texas and even Tom Jones. He is able to turn his skills to almost any musical style including chill-out/ambient, folk, rock, dance music and straightforward pop. Glover began producing while still with Killing Joke and left the band in 1982 to pursue solo projects, the first of which was the band Brilliant, which included contributions from Jimmy Cauty, later of the KLF. He then worked with the successful dance act Blue Pearl before producing and helping to write the Orb’s first two ambient house breakthrough albums (‘The Orb’s Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld’ and ‘U.F. Orb’).
