Been a while since I first heard this one. Nice work mate 

After a short hiatus, Mantra Collective are delighted to share the fourth release from our digital sublabel Pandorea Records. Continuing our focus on local talent, we present a solo EP from Melbourne based Travisty. Travis Barrington was undoubtedly one of our most exciting discoveries of 2020 and it brings us great joy to offer a platform to share his detailed sound.

The four track EP is marked by an infectiously uplifting swing, with all tracks a timely fit for the reopening of dancefloors. Kinetic tones is filled with the same energy the track takes it’s name from. An understated groove sits above warm textures, making way for a euphoric breakdown. Midnight Mistress is an expert display of Travis’ classy yet danceable sound; a deep and dreamy journey that could easily continue beyond its 8 minute run time. Sleep Walking follows, leading with a delicate melody that balances its elegant baseline. Closing the EP Is Waves, the clubbiest cut of the EP. The right amount of bounce is expertly embellished with interesting sampling - one for the body and the mind. A bright release from an equally bright talent, we are so excited to hear more from Travis.

Pandorea 004 is now available for streaming and purchase via the Mantra Collective Bandcamp. Special thank you to Venda for mastering and Ature. for artwork. 

Mantra Collective would like to acknowledge that all tracks were produced on the stolen land traditionally belonging to the peoples of the Eora Nation and the Kulin Nation. We pay respect to their elders past, and present and emerging.

The Cab Drivers ZKY and Daniel Paul have both thrived from the Berlin Underground in the early 90′. Their fuelled energy and thriving groove always guarantees a good dance.
Well known for their exquisite collection and big range of genres, they cater the clubs with a particular and peculiar vibe, making each of those dance floor moments unforgettable.
Since 1992 the Cab Drivers create an outstanding and incomparable style, constantly contributing to the scene and making a name for themselves.
In 1995 they founded their legendary Label Cabinet Records which goes along with great artists like Brawther, Audio Werner, DJ Honesty, Youandewan and many more.
The creation of the label has made them the first to forge a new aesthetic in house and techno music. Advanced 909 programming, a clean minimalistic sound design with straight forward patterns and subtle lines of funk and latin melodies are shaping their identity. And of course driving baselines.
In the same year the name of the Cab Drivers were born: “After releasing under our aliases like Horsehoe, Abrax, Princes, Karo, Feeding Cup and Compass to name a few, we thought it was time for another alias Cab Drivers: cab the short form of cabinet + drivers – we who drive the label”.
Since their foundation 25 years ago, Cab Drivers have put a string of releases on numerous labels, including their own Cabinet Records and its sublabels Eclipser Chaser, Rund, Ground Service Records, which still shape us musically today.
Releases on reputable labels such as Stickman Records, Plus 8, Dance Arena Productions, Elecktrick and 7th City, are just a few to mention.
They keep those 12-inches coming in forms of countless remixes on imprints like One Records, Politics of Dancing, Cosmo, Invade, Djebali, Pets, HedZup, Berg Audio, Constant Sound and more.
Collaborations with relevant artists like Chez Damier, Daniel Bell and Politics of Dancing are a strong impact even today.
Defined and driven by curiosity the Berlin Pioneers have been performing as professional live acts as well. Without any doubt playing live is still a sophisticated and rare domain to perform. Addicted to music and djing they keep a high level in the league. Their ability to give a free rain to desire and creativity allows the power of invention grow and flourish.
While serving dancefloors as live & DJ acts around the globe, Cab Drivers quickly shaped a peculiar sound niche of their own. Tresor, Heideglühen, Fabric, Sankeys, Rex Club, Fuse, Harry Klein, D-Edge, Gazgolder, Club Guesthouse, Le Journal de la Musique, Studio 338 or Pratersauna are just a few clubs to mention.

Mathäus’ journey to electronic music is an interesting one. Starting out with EDM, he soon immersed himself in more discerning sounds, to the point where he is now fully concerned with more exquisite and sophisticated sounds. A native of São Paulo in Brazil, he now lives in Dublin, Ireland, a city that’s quickly left an impression on his tastes. Besides this, he’s also been making use of Ireland’s geographical location by visiting gigs around Europe - most recently Ricardo Villalobos’ 20th anniversary session at London institution, fabric. 

Mathäus’ own sounds bear the hallmarks of a producer confident in his approach. Heavily influenced by groove and minimal, he namechecks long-time favourites of ours such as Mihai Popoviciu and Cab Drivers as favourites, and definitely shares their penchant for class and eclecticism. What’s more he’s also released already on the likes of Conceptual Records, Chichi Music, Farmat and Worst Date Records.

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.
