https://mannequinrecords.bandcamp.com/album/mnq-160-andi-machino-parafernales-ep

The collaborative bi-coastal project between Andi (NYC) and Machino (LA) is dark, spiraling music that conflates the tension of running EBM basslines with the monstrosity of electro-saturated, industrialized beats. In 2021, Andi and Machino began sending music back and forth to each other virtually—thousands of miles apart—as they built upon their passion for creating off-the-cuff, dangerously degenerate dance tracks.

Parafernales, their first release out this summer on Mannequin, is a conceptual EP that deals with power struggles: love and lust, strength and destruction, dominating and domination. Andi's vocals are spoken, whispered, and yelled simultaneously, as if to mirror the mania of having control and losing it at the same time. The EP title, Parafernales, is a nod to Machino's first language of Spanish and stems from the idea of miscellany: it is parafernalia for drugs, or, simply, accessories for unsavory activities. With inspirations from turn-of-the-90s erotic thrillers to the Chilean post-punk band, Los Prisioneros, the duo collide in a manner that is unadulterated and, at times, completely unhinged.

Machino is an electronic performer and music producer from Mexico based in Los Angeles who started out making moody ambient...  more

DTP#43 - Dim Garden

We are very happy with our latest mix, lovingly put together by Dim Garden from The Hague.
She has accompanied us for many years now with her haunting synth productions full of sadness, anger and grief. As you can hear on labels like Italo Moderni, Ophism, Tanzprocesz, Yarrow Ballet, almighty Nightwind Records or her own label Hunger! to name just a few.

Her mix for us contains all this, but much more: It's a deep dive into her universe. From DX7 sounds to mutant beat experiments to acid-tinged drum scenarious, wave memories to eerie drones and haunting vocals up to the battle of the ruins.
Embark on this journey.

Fundraiser for Palestine live from Time is the New Space w/ Samira 

Fundraiser for Palestine w/ Samira - 11th May 2025

Today on Meta Moto Premieres we have Teenage Menopause Records. For this new full-length output, Gil.Barte delivers on Teenage Menopause an 8 tracks LP full of formal strength and psychedelic grandeur. Unlike the vast near-death explorations or trancey adventures he developped on various labels such as Neubau, Big Science Records, Homemade Soundsystem or his own imprint Meth'O'Tapes, the meaningfully-named « Claviceps Purpurea » is a botanist guide to the valleys of the mind.

From the eponym opening to the ending echo, each entry is a glance at magical universal exotica. With an intense emphasis on rhythm, standing quite apart from his former releases, Gil.Barte draws the bouncing steps of a whirlwind dance rooted in western witchcraft.

Raging pieces of club-destroying material (for those who dare) meet sketches of electronic fever-dreams. A full circle that is meant to run on and on, breaking the veil of daylight consciousness.

MM PREMIERE 090 | Gil.Barte - Martha's Doll [Teenage Menopause]

Carne Tremula - From the long-winter Torino, two maestri of the Dark-Ambient lymbs teamed up for the very first time. 
Matteo Viani (Black Seed) and Andrea Marini (SabaSaba) gather their gears and influences to craft a narrative and figurative landscape through sounds and signals. 
These 8 tracks, as sounds experimentations, have been spontaneously recorded live, then enhanced by Tioma Tchoulanov (Nze Nze) mastering, create a navigation in some shallow waters, a Path of Paladin from the darkness to the light of brighter days. 

This comes as a tape, dubbed on recycled batches, wrapped in a very exclusive collage by Andrea Marini. 

Lim edition of 70.

PREMIERE⚡️Carne Tremula - Memoria [TeenageMenopause Records]

https://mannequinrecords.bandcamp.com/album/mnq-155-bourbonese-qualk-my-government-is-my-soul-lp

Mannequin Records proudly reissues "My Government Is My Soul", a searing 1989 statement from Bourbonese Qualk, one of the UK’s most defiant and politically engaged experimental acts. Originally released on the group’s own label, this LP captures the uncompromising spirit of a band deeply embedded in the resistance movements of 1980s Britain.

Recorded during a turbulent period of social unrest, "My Government Is My Soul" stands as a fierce response to authoritarianism, surveillance, and the neoliberal decay that defined the Thatcher era. Bourbonese Qualk fused industrial rhythms, minimal synth, distorted tape loops, and spoken-word polemics into a sound that was both confrontational and deeply physical—a weaponized form of music rooted in activism and direct action.

Widely regarded by fans as one of the band’s strongest works, "My Government Is My Soul" has earned a near-mythic status in underground circles. Fans have praised the album’s stylistic breadth—“sometimes it kisses the hem of rock, at others it bows towards the likes of Steve Reich & Philip Glass".

This reissue, fully remastered by Rude 66, reintroduces a critical work of post-industrial dissent to a new generation. Still as urgent and unflinching as ever, the album resonates with today’s climate of mass disinformation and systemic control. It is a timely reminder that sound can still be a form of resistance.

The digital edition includes five bonus tracks that were previously available only on the original CD version, now made accessible in digital format exclusively for Bandcamp.

Bourbonese Qualk - Ton Ton Macoute

Some of the tracks are old and deeply sentimental to me, but in today’s world and climate, it felt right to bring them back and play with them. 

The mix has its flaws, I know—but that’s exactly what I love about underground sound: the rawness, the emotion, the imperfection.

I enjoy exploring wonderfully bizarro melodies cling to crisped percussion, all shrouded in a smokey blanket of saturation. 

Haunting basslines, exotic resonance howls, sludgy synths drowning in the umbra, diabolical carnival organs, and stygian vocals. 

Collecting digital and cassettes.

People sometimes speak of something that happens frequently as happening 'ever so often'. But when something happens only occasionally, it happens every so often. Ever so often is a monthly show at Operator by Samira, a dj that usually comes back to a darker palette of melancholic electro, acid and new beat.
