Born in the '90s in the south of Chile, Manu Valladares, captivated by the contagious House music of Chicago, begins his journey of no return towards electronic music, around 2017 in Santiago where he begins his career as a DJ, which to date accumulates presentations that make him They have led to sharing with prominent national and international artists.
At the beginning of 2018, he decided to return to the city of Los Angeles where NOstandpeople was born, a cycle of parties and podcast that works on the Club's electronic music line.
As a producer, he began to develop a great affinity for exploration and contact with synthesizers and rhythm machines, an experience that led him to set up his own sound equipment store in southern Chile.
On this occasion Manv presents "Virtualog" an EP of 2 deep cuts of pure and raw minimal funk, with a dark and rhythmic soundscape, loaded with a lot of swing and sound distortions that invite the listener to close their eyes and immerse themselves in the sequences, leaving that interact with their body receptors. The first track "Dr Pls" is a hypnotic conductor sustained by a small arpeggiated pluc that goes back and forth over a robust bassline and subtle hiss giving the feeling of content chaos over a certain quiet state environment. On the other hand, "Analog Emu" unfolds as a much faster tool, which as it progresses stops being a dark rhythmic element to begin to open up to a melodic prism which flower opens when the ray of light appears.

Thanks in advance for tag, feedback and chart, it means a lot for us!!!

Jo.an Julian - Bugged Course (Original Mix)

Burgeoning UK talents @norulesukldn are increasing in notoriety at a seemingly exponential rate. The duo (born in Rome, Italy) has an interesting logistical story - which has played a pivotal role in their unique and definitive sonic palate.

Their sound is heavily inspired by Italian Funk and Hip-Hop, as well as the obvious underground dance flavours that roar throughout their compositions. Simply put, iconic cultural twang infused with loosely-swung 4/4 grooves and rumbling low-frequency characteristics - made more charismatic with offbeat flair and creativity. No Rules champions the ability to beat that all too easy trap of stagnated, repetitious dance music - by improvising their productions into fruition and not following any form of a preset template.

No Rules’ identifiable and unparalleled musical persona has already garnered the attention of several high-profile labels and artists. Their work can be found on some of the most respected imprints in underground electronic music including e1even Records, Ladeep, YAYA Records, Weirdtracx, Whoyostro and Jamie Jones’ seminal Hottrax label among others. A flurry of well-received releases has seen the duo supported by the likes of Jamie Jones, Lauren Lo Sung, Pawsa, Diego Krause, Chris Stussy, Toman, Luuk van Dijk and many more.

Building on their impressive production reputation, No Rules are now nurturing their growing presence in clubland - with bookings now coming in an ever-increasing volume, understandably. With a performance archive featuring several club spaces in Norwich, Hull and London, the duo has already had the privilege of supporting Dimmish, Burnski, Clive Henry, Diego Krause, James Dexter and Toman, to name but a few.

A definite fixture to pinpoint for the coming months and years, No Rules’ exciting release and performance pipeline make them a promising prospect that will no doubt make their way to the forefront of the scene in the not too distant future. If you’re looking for a standout artistic reference that will make a distinguished impact on the industry, No Rules just could be the answer we have all been searching for.
