THE PLASMA OF MANAO.
PLASMA, the first Manao EP for Kontra, is the culmination of years of sound and visual exploration, of learning within the environment of electronic music, of creative exercises that led to a new approach and a new narrative. His sound is the result of not being afraid of transformation, of ideas that are born from research. The result, however it may be, is accepted for what it is.
As a child influenced by his father, he grew up with the Latin rythms of Cuban and Puerto Rican salsa brava, and merengue hip hop; until his beginnings in electronica with hard
style and hard trance, through the discovery of the broken UK wave with drum & bass and dubstep, to his flirtations with R&B and hip hop, the essence of Manao has always been that of a shapeshifter: inspecting and striving to mutate. This is how he finally arrived, through the path of underground techno, to the original sound of electro born in Detroit in the eighties and nineties, and to the Miami base, which are the foundation of his current creations that fuse electro, techno and breakbeats, and they taste like dance, because their music is one hundred percent connected to the club life.
From this perspective, this EP gets felt in the bloodstream. PLASMA is the name that Manao wanted to give to a sensation: that of wanting to move to the rhythm of club music. It is in this work, and in this specific moment of his career, that he himself defines as in continuous transformation, in which all his moments and sound ideas converge and merge, generating a sound that for him is totally new and that, despite being influenced by European and American trends, it is built from its Latin American roots.
PLASMA also serves as a laboratory in which Manao experiments by meeting with other Latin American sonic producers. The result can be tasted in the track REALDEAL, produced in collaboration with Elektor, whose remix, by Bimol & Jauri, has also been included in the EP. For Manao, PLASMA is just the beginning of a journey that is still in its earliest stages; a narrative that until now begins to be told, to develop, and that he hopes to guide as it takes shape. It is about a sound, an exploration and a concept that align perfectly with Kontra’s manifesto and actions, and that is the reason why we are so excited to have this work that we present to you today.

EPM Podcast 152 comes from Colombian electronic artist, Binary Algorithms. Binary Algorithms is Andrés Ávila, founder of Furatena and mastermind behind the Neo-Tunja concept who describes himself as a Transhumanist. Bringing his unique electronic touch to the EPM podcast series he fuses electro, techno and IDM tracks into a glorious electronic stew. Podcast #152 features Lok44, Assembler Code x Jensen Interceptor, Joey Beltram, Mike Huckaby, Cyan85, The Hacker and several of his forthcoming productions.

As both a DJ and producer, he's worked on futuristic electro, ambient and breaks, usually preferring versatility over generic patterns and sounds. However, he takes issue with the term "electro" and the way people tend to use the word making reference to mainstream electronic music, instead preferring to describe what he does as "Elektro".

Andrés dived into electro around 2018 but it was not until 2021, when he decided to create Furatena, that he named himself ‘Binary Algorithms’. Since then, he has mostly appeared on V/A compilations and has become more prolific as a producer than as a DJ. He's released numerous tracks on different labels around the globe, consequently being part of the new LATAM electro movement.

Pocket Candy’s debut EP, Dreamin’, invites listeners into a dreamlike sonic world shaped by vivid imagination and atmospheric depth. The five-track release explores hyperphantasia—a condition characterized by intense mental imagery—through lush, synth-forward tech house compositions and two standout remixes by Copenhagen staples Braver and A.Dixen.

Drawing from dub, ‘80s synth pop, ‘90s tech house, and contemporary textures à la Ilian Tape and Wisdom Teeth, Dreamin’ reflects Pocket Candy’s (aka HAKEEM) background as a DJ and his evolving identity as a producer. This introspective yet dancefloor-conscious debut channels both lucid and non-lucid dreams into tactile soundscapes.

Out on 11.09.2025 on Copenhagen's Brave Trax, Dreamin’ will be available on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms.
