Live from the Adriatic 2024: Alexis Le-Tan

Four odd hours of magic from The Gun's longest running resident, chief musical tastemaker Nathan Gregory Wilkins. His second Saturday of the month sessions are beloved to so many of us that it is absolutely incredible that we haven't got one of his live sessions up here before.
If we're being entirely truthful, perhaps its because if you know about Nathan's session, then fair play to you, they are available live to his flock - here in the pub.
If you are a fan of Nathan and Ivan Smagghe's seminal Channelling show on NTS then you will have an idea of the flavour, but this and his monthly sets are something a little different, yet equally amazing.
Get stuck in, this one is fantastic.

Tankwart doing his thing at a recent Horrorscope party.... ;)

"Tankwart is a DJ, producer, and musician originally from Zurich, currently based in Berlin. In his own productions as well as in the music with the band Dâdalus & Bikarus, he explores a sound that extends the concept of psychedelic music across different eras. He seeks sounds that are raw, trippy, and yet beautiful, blending genres like New Wave, Triphop, Acid, and Kosmische Musik. With one foot on the dancefloor and the other in the intimate setting of the basement, he thrives in spaces where music transcends boundaries and strengthens community."

Die deutsche Fassung meines neuen Antikriegsliedes. 

After WW3 Deutsch

"Fragments of Life" is a sonic journey through memory and time, a mosaic of emotions suspended between past and present. The track opens with an ethereal introduction, where ambient sounds and enveloping pads create a nostalgic and floating atmosphere. A deep, pulsing bassline drives the piece, while intricate future garage percussion weaves a broken rhythm, evoking the irregular heartbeat of distant memories.

Fragments of Life

Manfredas and Vilnius are not one and the same but so intrinsically linked that the Lithuanian capital makes a good starting point. Although, Manfredas got his first musical experience via his hometown radio (long shifts soundtracking a country exploding itself out of the Soviet glaciation), it was his move to Vilnius that started it all. 

Skip a few shifts at legendary club Gravity and an electroclash band and we get to Opium and Smala. It is quite hard to fathom how important the club and Manfredas’ imprint were to the Vilnius nightlife, and still are. For years, this was the party and what a party that was; creating a scene out of not much, educating a couple of generation of clubbers, tightening friendships and making Manfredas the international DJ he is today. For many, it made Vilnius unexpectedly the best clubbing city in the world.

After a string of solo releases and remixes aimed at the furthest corners of the dancefloor, Manfredas took a deep breath and reached out even beyond that furthest corner. With drummer Marijus Aleksa, he created Santaka, an organic/electronic post-jazz (insert whatever term you please) with releases on Byrd Out and legendary Finnish label Sahko, and a live project where the dance floor and non-dancefloor merge hypnotically.

When Manfredas co-created Radio Vilnius in 2021, a hub for experimental music in a dire national landscape, it was another way to pay his dues to the local scene. Born online, Radio Vilnius has now launched it's own record label, inaugurated by Santaka themselves.

When The Last Smala happened in 2020, Manfredas & Ivan Smagghe created a new party outfit: Dresden, a bastard child of Vilnius and London, mother of all nighters, designer of t-shirts, travelling circus (from Love International to Wonderfruit, Glastonbury to Sonar). More hours put in for unruly people, more psychedelic music, including a two-day “weekender” at Gallery, the new hyper-club opened by the Opium crew.

Jack of all trades but master of many (we haven’t talked about his love of food), you can find Manfredas touring the world searching for that extra sparkle and sharing it with all of us.
