Inspired by the crate digging sets of Antal and Palms Trax, the brothers Ramón and Frank van Gammeren forged a plan: make propulsive music that fuses influences from all over the world together. The fundamentals for ‘MANOS were already in place: Ramón has a background in folk music and film composition, whereas Frank is active as a drummer and DJ. 

For six whole years, the two crafted their sound and live-set, fusing the best ingredients of a DJ and a live band together. As a result, their music offers a wonderful excess of textures, moods and stylistics.

But there’s also a playful freedom to improvise in ‘MANOS – instrumentation like vocals, percussion and guitar add an infectious physicality to their live sets. Indeed, ‘MANOS’s music is positively genre-less and that seems precisely the point: all their elements they use are fine tuned to make both body and mind move to their music.
