Short Circuits Magazine refers to him as "one of the quietest people in drum and bass". Since his initial releases in 2001, Martin has been known for his consistent signature style and sound. While studying Fine Arts at the University of Ulster in Belfast, he became interested in the music of John Cage whose work was influential in titling Martin's first album release Musique Concrète in 2001. He soon came to the attention of drum and bass DJ Fabio, who signed Calibre to his record label, Creative Source. Martin started producing Drum and Bass in 1995 and his first signed release was credited under the now defunct Quadrophonic record label. He is a classically trained musician, playing a variety of musical instruments. Dominick Martin, better known by his stage name Calibre, is a Northern Irish drum and bass music producer and DJ from Belfast.
