Martin went from bedroom-beatmaking at age 11 to recording and producing rap records at age 18 with long-time friend and collaborator Blessed (FKA Miracle). He worked his way into the music industry by teaming up with local talent and forming a group then known as Dream Big Music. His career progressed further with platinum-certified records from Timomatic[3] and Justice Crew[4] and producing for Jay Sean and Busta Rhymes, UNO Stereo worked on projects with prominent Australian rappers such as Seth Sentry's album Strange New Past, which won the ARIA Music Award for Best Urban Album,[5] and Bliss n Eso's platinum-certified single "Moments".[6] He has also worked with Illy, Horrorshow, Tuka, Urthboy and Drapht.

Since then, he has gone on to co-produce Khalid's Grammy nominated debut studio album American Teen[7] and 360's comeback album Vintage Modern.[8][9] He then dropped his own UNO Stereo collaborations, whilst his single "Got U" was streamed over two million times. He produced British artist Wiley's "Over It" and American rapper Wale's "Debbie", dropped a collaborative single with Canada's Maurice Moore ("Just 2"), and produced the ARIA Music Award-winning single "Miss Shiney" for neo soul musician Kaiit.
