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.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Music has always played a major role in my life. When I was young, I listened to hip hop, soul & funk, which quickly made me want to create music myself. I joined my brother @crosscgn to produce some hip hop beats using software and a MIDI keyboard. We had a lot of fun playing around and I think that time formed my taste in sound - I’m still into clean drums and subby basslines. Those first steps also made me understand how tracks are built - and what a solid groove is all about.

Sin lugar a duda, el nombre de Toni Rado va ligado a la electronica de baile y a la esencia de Club. 
Clase y sofisticación definen a la perfección sus lives, que abarcan desde el Acid Jazz hasta la electrónica más underground.                  
Sus directos generan así un portal musical entre el ayer y el hoy donde el House se revela como principal ingrediente.

Ha actuado en clubs diversos del panorama balear: Es Gremi, Tramuntana Fest, Es Molí Club,Brooklyn Club, R33, Ware House, Heaven, Garito Café, Social Club, Sa Possessió y Cultura Club entre otros, habiendo compartido cabina con artistas de la talla de Jamie Jones, Luciano, Maceo Plex, Tiga o Radio Slave.

Locutor de radio y melómano con infinidad de raíces musicales: Post Punk , New Wave e Indie Rock constituyen el eje transversal de su alter ego llamado Jäger&Levante. 

Este se creó́ en los after party más gamberros en Es Gremi, de artistas y grupos como León Benavente, Fuel Fandango, El Columpio Asesino, Arde Bogotá́ o Calavento entre otros.         Es fruto de más de un lustro como dj residente en esta sala; sintonización artística e innovación musical, que hacen de Rado un referente indispensable dentro de la escena musical más alternativa.

Started his Jedi career in 2016 speaking at Perm underground events of various formats.
Initially, the musical style of the project was based on such directions as Techno, Progressive House, Drone Dream and Dub.
But by 2018 it became absolutely clear that the main idea of ​​the project is depth and hypnotism, and the style of music no longer matters.

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.
