Doc Martin
Uniting Souls Music presents Diggin’ Deep: 2 rooms of music & a special 4-hour set by house legend DOC MARTIN. Celebrating the release of Doc’s new remix coming April 2026 on Uniting Souls Music!
Doc Martin (Sublevel – Los Angeles): In the half-light of sweat-drenched dancefloors, under disco balls throwing shards of silver across bodies in motion, Doc Martin (Martin Mendoza) has been a constant presence for more than three decades. From San Francisco’s acid house basements to Berlin’s Panorama Bar and Ibiza’s open-air temples, he has carried the heartbeat of underground culture with him, shaping it as much as he has preserved it.
Along the way, he has shared the stage with icons who defined eras in music. As tour DJ for Deee-Lite, he rode the wave of their worldwide success, delivering the sound of house to packed theaters just as “Groove Is in the Heart” was reshaping pop culture. He has opened nights for James Brown, playing house music before the Godfather of Soul himself took the stage, a living bridge between funk and the electronic underground. At Coachella, he played alongside Fatboy Slim and the Chemical Brothers, when electronic music was beginning to break through to massive festival audiences in the U.S. He has held down sets with Moby, Grace Jones, and even Daft Punk in their early days, bringing his West Coast sensibility into the same orbit as artists who would go on to redefine the global soundscape.
What ties all of these moments together is Doc’s singular ability to make the dancefloor feel like home — whether a sweaty basement in San Francisco, a warehouse in Los Angeles, or the world’s most iconic festivals. His story is not just a career but a lineage, one that connects the roots of house and techno to the present moment and beyond. What makes Doc Martin so enduring is his ability to span time and sound in a single night. He is equally comfortable building with deep house vocals, sliding into funky tribal basslines, dropping acid squelches, or pulling in electro-inspired edges. Every set feels alive, as if the past, present, and future are being braided together track by track.
