Introducing my new track!! Based on an idea (for an original piece of music) inspired by the summer thunderstorms and their dramatic lightning shows, I began creating a digital painting that was to become the inspiration for the music and also became the cover art for the finished track. I hope you will enjoy it!

Disgo

I was on a mini holiday when I created this beat, looking out over the lake from my hotel room. This kind of experience is rare for me, as I'm usually stuck at home. I had just finished writing my other track, "Ijadiri," and while this one has some similar elements, it's not exactly the same. I would almost describe it as yacht rock, or perhaps 80s rock, or something with a retro flavor. 

I don’t know anyone named Anjolie, but I imagine her as an angel singing or a rare beauty, complementing a night that occurs only once in a blue moon. Everyone can dream once in a while, and I’ve had experiences like that too—memories that, once formed, can inspire art. I used to shy away from this kind of writing, opting instead for a different style that often felt disingenuous. However, when I embrace these moments and dive deeply into them, I find I can tap into my most unique and authentic way of expressing myself, reminiscent of old-school techniques.

It took me a while to finish because I went through some rough weeks after the trip to the lake, but I persisted, and here it is. I hope its retro flair is enjoyed by everyone who hears it. Now, I'm ready to move on to my next project. 


All it Takes is One  

She joins me for a day off on the neon streets for a while
Catching the rays of her lockstep dancing
on the yacht 
Bright seductive smile 

All it takes is one to start a wave in the crowd
Rising up while screaming as it goes around
stereo surround 

I can hear you Anjolie. 

On my way - like a tidal ray
Watch it all - golden rings as you start to sing
On my way - like a tidal wave 
Watch in wonder her voice takes me away

The glow on the street near the dock
seems to hang around for a mile  
Light-reflecting on the barrels
as I sip the red cherry wonder wine (Cherry Wine) 

I want to know you Anjolie. 

On my way - like a tidal ray
Watch it all - golden rings as she starts to sing
On my way - like a tidal wave 
Watch in wonder her voice it takes me away

(solos) 

On my way - like a tidal ray
Watch it all - golden rings as you start to sing
On my way - like a tidal wave 
Watch in wonder her voice it takes me away

Sip the barrel of the cherry wine.

All it Takes is One

Release Text:
Istanbul-based producer and DJ Manendria makes his return with Claudio EP on Marginalia,
showcasing his distinctive blend of Melodic Techno and Modern House. Since entering the
electronic scene in 2022, Manendria has been crafting hypnotic grooves and cinematic
atmospheres, drawing inspiration from Melodic House, Afro House, and Indie Dance. His
productions have graced stages such as Tomorrowland Core World, Zamna Brazil, and
Burning Man, receiving support from industry heavyweights like Super Flu and ELIF. Known
for detailed and organic sound design, Manendria’s music captures both emotional depth and
dancefloor drive - qualities that shine on this release.
The EP features two original tracks - “Claudio” and “Jyot” (a collaboration with Norian) -
alongside a powerful remix of “Claudio” from LERM.
The title track, “Claudio,” is a hypnotic journey of rolling basslines, warm melodic layers, and
textural atmospheres, perfectly capturing the late-night energy Marginalia is known for. LERM
reimagines the track into a dynamic, club-focused weapon, amplifying its grooves and energy
while preserving its emotive core.
The second original, “Jyot,” created together with Norian, is a lush, melodic cut blending
organic instrumentation and subtle harmonics. Its emotive progression and driving synths
showcase Manendria’s ability to tell stories through sound while keeping a strong connection to
the dancefloor.
With a growing reputation as one of Istanbul’s standout talents - performing alongside Sasha
Carassi, ELIF, Yet More, and Aladağ - Manendria continues to push creative boundaries.
