Fractal architect - Manual/MNL/Cinematique releases

The man behind our latest signing Fractal Architect is Daniel Watts, a UK based father of four who lives in the idyllic village of Weston Super Mare. When he send us his 'Crystalline' track we fell in love with it on first listen. It's one of those songs you only come across on rare occasion. Euphoric melodies on a layer of crispy progressive breaks complemented with every day life background rumble, this is a real stellar performance by this Brit! 

On the b-side you'll find the 'Hologroove' track. More four-to-the-floor this one, but with the same quirkiness and crisp production values as the title track, 'Hologroove' soaks it's progressive flowing soundscapes on a bed of minimalistic beats and percussion.

Fractal Architect truly brings something unique to the table here, averse to genre borders which makes it both interesting- and suitable for many openminded electronic music listeners out there.

Fractal Architect - Hologroove

Fractal Architect - Crystalline

Daniel Watts aka Fractal Architect returns within the Manual family after this recent highly acclaimed 'Crystalline EP' on Manual Music. 'Overcome EP' marks the first release on the MNL label by the Englishman. In anticipation of the release of his mini album on MNL later this year, Daniel drops two fine trippy melodic tracks; the arpeggiator fueled title track and the atmospheric 'States Of Matter'. If you're into atmospheric melodies with a touch of classic psy this is the perfect release for you!

Fractal Architect - States Of Matter

Fractal Architect - Overcome

UK's own Daniel Watts aka Fractal Architect is probably one of the most productive music makers of the past year. He kinda entered the scene out of nowhere with a string of beautiful melodic and forward thinking releases on labels such as Mirabilis Records, Calotte, Inlab Recordings and of course our own Manual Music and MNL labels amongst others.

Now it's time for his debut (mini) album that consists of 6 brand new original songs and a remix by Robben Cepeda, the man behind the ADRO / Calotte brand. On 'Still Time...' Daniel showcases his versatility as a producer, from the stunning electronica song 'Missing' until the more minimalistic 'Airlock' and with his trademark psy influenced melodic trademark sound on the other tunes, Fractal Architect truly delivers here!

Dustin Nantais - Foretold (Fractal Architect Premonition Remix)

Manual Music presents you three deep intelligent cuts by Roby Deep, Peter Corvaia and Fractal Architect on the first 'Tales From The Deep' EP.

Roby Deep caught our attention with the release of 'Going Under' on Submarine Vibes, a personal favorite last year of Paul Hazendonk, the man behind Manual Music. Paul asked the Slovenian artist to join the Manual family and the result is here; 'Theatre' a deep throbbing builder layered on an acid bassline with delicate snippets of clear melodies breaking through during the entire track.

Peter Corvaia take things even deeper on his Manual debut 'Caspian'. This song breathes intelligence all over and you can clearly hear that Peter has put in a lot of time and effort to create something that special and rich in detail. Proper Manual debut here by the American.

Fractal Architect makes his return on Manual Music after his 2014 debut 'Crystalline' and having had released a mini album on the MNL sublabel in between. 'Espionage' sounds as mysterious as the title suggests. A beautiful warm piece of electronic music to end this release in proper fashion.

Are you ready to go deeper?
