Mantra Collective are proud to present the sixth release from our label Pandorea Records from Melbourne's very own Michaelis. No stranger to Pandorea Records, Michaelis produced "Wims Groove" was supported by international heavyweights across the world.

His new four track EP for Pandorea Records 006 is influenced by the house and minimal sounds coming out of Europe with his style of elaborate grooves and well placed wonk. Drawing inspiration from old funk and jazz and adopting an organic, sample-based process, his tracks have an intricate yet playful sound that draws you in and makes for beautiful listening and big dance floor moments.

With an attention to detail and a strong focus on groove - Michaelis is a producer and dj quietly turning heads with his intelligent take on minimal house.

Michaelis - Ahead Of The Curve

Mantras are not small things, mantras have power. They are the mind vibration in relationship to the Cosmos. The science of mantra is based on the knowledge that sound is a form of energy having structure, power, and a definite predictable effect on the chakras and the human psyche.
