Miss Mants, originally from Tallinn, Estonia, stepped into music at an early age. She studied classical piano for over a decade at the Tallinn Music School, building a strong foundation supported by her family’s musical background.

Known as the first lady of breaks and bass in Estonia, Miss Mants was nominated for Best Producer at the International Breaks Awards (IBA) in Spain (2017) and as a Breakthrough Producer in the UK (2015). Her journey began on local radio, where she first discovered her love for DJing. Soon after, she began producing music in collaboration with fellow breaks enthusiasts. The influence of early-2000s drum and bass deeply shaped her sound and sparked a lasting love affair with breaks music.

Miss Mants’s brand of music fuses a wide range of styles — from rave, industrial, and breakbeat to an eclectic palette of sampled sources — all delivered at high tempos. She also runs her own podcast, Breaks Me Out, featuring both breaks and drum and bass.

Over the years, she has lived in cities such as New York, Florida, and London — each leaving its mark on her evolving musical identity. These global experiences now shine through in her distinct style, which blends the grit of hip-hop and the energy of drum and bass with the chunky, infectious groove of breaks. With this, she delivers some of the freshest, fattest breaks to today’s mid-tempo culture, often dominated by house music.

In a saturated and cloned dance music market, it is becoming all too common to merely emulate, rather than stand out, be unique and create memorable music. Our passion for timeless, creative and intimate music allows us to  filter through to the artists we invite to join Decoded Magazine We do not look for just anyone, we are looking for people who create memorable music that inspires and invokes emotion, rather than be disposable chart topping hits and mixes.

We support and nurture underground house, progressive, techno, deep house, minimal, breaks, electronic, drum and bass music.

We live in a world of mass media consumerism, yet never tell a story. Never in the history of mankind, has so much information been available, yet our voices are never heard. Decoded Magazine aims to deliver thought provoking, intelligent journalistic articles that affect the generations who are passionate about electronic music, fashion, lifestyle, industry news, interviews, travel, food and breaking new emerging talent beyond the dance floor. We provide ethical, provoking and humorous content to a global audience.

We are a collective of professional marketing managers, print & web designers, recording artists, journalists, label owners, DJs, social media marketers, event promoters, music publishers and more. It is a labour of love for us, it is a passion that runs deep, a feeling of taking back control of an industry we love and so heavily invest in with our own personal lives. We are not grandstanding, we are not thinking we are going to change the world overnight, but we do hope that we can slowly be a game changer in what people listen to, explore or experience.
