#ryanmartinie #mudvayne #rockfileradio
Ryan Martinie (born on August 6, 1975) is an American bassist, best known for being the bass player of Mudvayne. He is well known for his complex basslines and unique playing style. He has been with the band since 1998.

His father also played guitar, piano and "has a nice voice that he has good control over". When asked why did he decided to play bass, he said "Why I requested the purchase of a bass is really still a mystery to me. I can only articulate that I remember being drawn by the sense of connection it shared with all of the other instruments". He grew up in IL. He studied jazz bass, and won several high school awards for classical vocals. Some of his early influences include Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, The Beach Boys and several big band jazz groups. He was in a Dream Theater styled progressive rock band called Broken Altar.
In 1996, Mudvayne was formed. They initially had a different bass player. In 1997, still with their old bass player, Mudvayne released their first album, Kill, I Oughta. However, in 1998, after seeing Broken Altar live, Mudvayne asked Ryan to join their band. Although he was reluctant to leave Broken Altar at first, he joined Mudvayne upon realizing that they were serious about their band. Ryan became a cult bass player, getting positive critical acclaim for his unique style of playing, that "adds Mudvayne a whole new dimension".

On 2 August 2012, Korn announced that Ryan Martinie will join them on their European tour that kicked off in Poland, as the band's bassist, Fieldy and his wife, were expecting a child.
Ryan was the guest bassist on a project created by guitarist and vocalist Scott Von Heldt named "Kurai". The drummer for the project was found in Abel Vallejo, the drum tech for Korn. The group released their debut EP, "Breaking The Broken" on the 17th of December, 2013.
