Born into a family of art and music, Martin showed his musical talent early, playing the piano by ear at the age of 5, Martin's mother, a classically-trained pianist, gave him piano lessons until he was 12, at which point he convinced his parents to buy him a guitar. Before long he was teaching other kids to play Van Halen licks and forming his school's guitar club. His style has evolved since those early days, but his passion for making music remains as strong as ever.
Richmond is an eclectic musician known for his ability to blend multiple diverse musical elements to compose something entirely new. He likens this intuitive music-making process to an electronic canvas, saying "anyone can throw paint on the wall and call it art, but a true artist instinctively chooses the best colors, shapes and textures... I don't follow formulas and yet my music works because I know how to blend just the right sounds."
An accomplished musician, Richmond plays keyboards, guitar and bass, and is also an exceptional rhythm programmer. Early in his career, he had the good fortune to work with one of LA's top engineers, the Record Plant's Gordon Fordyce (Motley Crue, P'Diddy, Tone Loc, TLC and Seal). Fordyce took Martin under his wing and encouraged his interest in computers to create innovative music.
