FLOAT RECORDS PODCAST 037 | https://soundcloud.com/mko

MKO is a DJ and promoter with over a decade of experience in the Polish scene and is a resident at Jasna 1 and a key member of the SLAP crew. He now fully dedicates himself to his club night, Shadows. His sound has resonated in Poland’s most iconic venues and internationally in cult clubs and festivals. In his sets, he moves fluidly through different shades of techno, deep, dub, trippy, and classic Detroit influences, without being confined to a single style.

This mix is a recording from Shadows, where he shared the booth with Kaiser and Chami, handling warm-up duties. It’s a journey from 135 to 140 BPM, packed with tracks he loves playing right now.

Born in Mumbai, India and based in Warsaw, Poland - Manali’s love for sharing spacey, hypnotic and obscure sounds alongside her peculiar mixing style and infectious energy behind the console has seen her bring a unique vibe to the dance floors — drawing attention and fascinating the crowds and promoters alike across her home country in India and in Amsterdam, where she lived for several years. She first got behind the decks in 2011 and since has continually evolved whilst regularly performing at clubs, collective parties and festivals in India and partly in Europe and South Asia. 

Refusing to confine herself to a particular genre, BPM or mood and fearless in her experimentations, Manali’s versatile DJ sets feature meticulous bold and eclectic selections that feature raw and hypnotic techno, often adding trance and rave elements at the fringes; and at other times she infuses leftfield, electro, breaks, garage and bass to her DJ sets, all the while as much effortlessly blending spacey house jams for intimate settings clubs and bars!

No wonder Manali has supported highly riveted artists like Sonja Moonear, Barac, Carl Finlow etc, and has played at Far Out Left (India's premier techno festival), where she was seen on the bill alongside the likes of DVS1, Identified Patient, Volvox, Umfang, Tapefeed, Aurora Halal and many more. 

Besides playing for streaming platforms like HÖR Berlin, erstwhile Amsterdam-based projects like Red Light Radio and New Dutch School, she has been a resident DJ with a highly coveted Mumbai-based electronic music promotion and artist management agency - Regenerate music; and a Minimal and House collective Technic Fabrique - based out of the Netherlands and featuring in their ADE showcases two years in a row. Her latest weekly DJ residency saw her perform at an upscale jaunt in downtown Warsaw. Besides India, Netherlands and Poland, she has performed in Berlin, Switzerland, Maldives and Nepal. A rather newcomer in the Polish scene, she has already played at Jasna 1, Chmury, Luzztro and more; recently in Sekta Selekta in Kraków whilst continuing to spread her wings.
