Manual Distribution : Selected

Obscure Dutch producer Vertell makes a quietly powerful entrance with Contours, a three-track release on the enigmatic Modern Nostalgia label. The EP operates in that elusive space between dub techno's hypnotic weight and the warmth of dubby deep house, evoking a timeless feel that resists easy categorization.

Tracks like Serahule, Onbestemd, and Nadir unfold with understated precision, subtle grooves, tape-warmed textures, and a spacious atmosphere that rewards deep listening. It's music rooted in the underground, unbothered by the algorithms of today, and aligned with Modern Nostalgia's mission: to revive the spirit of raw, pre-internet-era electronic music.

Available digitally and as a limited edition vinyl, Contours is not just a record, it's a quiet statement of intent from both Vertell and the Kimyou-curated label, where the music speaks louder than the names behind it.

MNL, the esteemed progressive house imprint under the Dutch Manual Music umbrella, proudly presents Makes You Wonder, the latest single from veteran producer Allan McLoud. With a career spanning over three decades, Scottish-born and Zurich-based McLoud has been a pivotal figure in the electronic music scene since the late '80s. His journey began with jazz-influenced hip-hop and evolved through breakbeat and trance, leading to a distinctive progressive house sound that has graced renowned labels such as JOOF Aura, The Soundgarden, and Mango Alley.

The original mix of Makes You Wonder showcases McLoud's signature style-deep, intelligent, and timeless progressive house that resonates with underground aficionados. Complementing the original is a remix by Serbian talent Hobin Rude, known for his releases on labels like Hoomidaas, Juicebox Music, and Sudbeat. Rude's interpretation infuses the track with his unique touch, offering a fresh perspective while maintaining the essence of the original.

This release is a must-have for enthusiasts of profound and sophisticated progressive house music.

Sri Lanka-based rising talent Jadon Fonka makes a striking debut on the revered MNL imprint with his three-track EP, Hoffmann's Journey.

His sound design feels inventive without ever losing its emotional or rhythmic center, offering a welcome twist in a genre that often leans into the familiar. Hoffmann's Journey EP is not just a strong label debut, it's a statement of intent from an artist with a compelling creative vision and a promising future.
