Manuel Darquart is a DJ and producer duo based between London and Auckland, currently run by Louis Anderson-Rich. Having already made a huge impact in a very short space of time on the electronic music scene, following releases for Coastal Haze, WOLF Music and Infinite Pleasure, they now have a new EP coming out on Slam City Jams. Drawing influence from classic Italian house labels such as Irma, Antima and Palmares, they have been putting their own twist and interpretation on the regular house track by joining the dots between yesterday’s golden era classics and today’s club bangers. We got a chance to ask them some questions about their workflow, how they'd describe their own music and what the future holds. 

Wemoto Radio welcomes Manuel Darquart!

Interview

WEMOTO RADIO - 017 - MANUEL DARQUART

“A bullet-tough club DJ” - UKF
“Riya is creating milestones for the scene with her live show” - FesTicket
“Comfortably our favourite female d’n’b vocalist” - Mixmag
“A versatile siren who can switch from vulnerable to tough faster than you can rewind the
drop. Believe the hype.” – Data Transmission

Riya is an iconic vocalist, festival-destroying DJ, and ground-breaking live artist.
Despite already having two D&B Arena Best Vocalist awards, over 14 million plays on
Spotify, collaborators from Skream, Dâm-Funk, Hybrid Minds and Break to LSB,
Lenzman, dBridge, BCee and DRS, and a discography spanning Shogun Audio, Digital
Soundboy, Metalheadz, CIA Records, Critical, Innerground and Spearhead Records,
Riya is breaking new ground and winning new fans every time she appears onstage.
With 5 award nominations at the D&B Arena Awards 2021, Riya’s electrifying joint album
with Collette Warren 'Two Sides of Everything', released on the pair’s new label Carnelian
Music and named as one of the best albums of 2021 by UKF, joins her acclaimed 2016
debut solo LP ‘Sublimation’, released on Spearhead – and cements Riya’s position as a
unique D&B all-rounder.
Featured by Mixmag, BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra and 6Music, Beats 1, UKF, Data
Transmission, Resident Advisor, DJMag and D&BArena (appearing in their seminal 2020
documentary ‘Drum & Bass: The Movement’), Riya is already a household name in Drum &
Bass, yet 2022 feels like it may be one of Riya’s most exciting years yet with many gigs lined
up in the UK and internationally, and more exciting collaborations on the way.

RE-Broken Beats feat. Riya, Kobee, Audite & TKR @ RADIO ELECTRONICA | 2022-01-29

Last week we had this crazy costume party at our place with all the fancy party people in their even fancier disguises and I went as @julita-just! Boom! I had borrowed those insane mirror-ball-dancing-boots straight from the dancefloor. I had bought some funky'n'fresh mint green flares and my neck was holding the most fluffy feather boa while I was looking through my golden sunglasses. Yeahr! I was looking just like the famous disco machine, lifting up everyone, smiling, having fun and spreading the good vibes. Just like my disguise! And this is the music we were all dancing and cheering too. I hope you get da vibe. Jam on!

Now live at the Blur Podcasts, the brilliant DJ and Producer from Newcastle, Australia - Soul Wun! 

Having first caught our attention with his fine tuned tracks released at 13th Hour Records last year, he has since then released several vibey, soulful, at times shuffling lo-fi house tunes that are just waiting for late night clubs around the world. 

He's also a wonderful DJ with several mixes and radio shows posted on his soundcloud page which is why we invited him to be our guest for the 70th edition of the Blur Podcasts, which is now live on our soundcloud and youtube pages.

RADIO ELECTRONICA was one of the first independent radio programmes to go on air in Jena in 1999. The background was to bring colour into the dreary Thuringian radio programme and to create a platform where regional and national artists from the electronic music scene could present themselves and exchange ideas. RADIO ELECTRONICA claims to be always on the trail of new influences, trends and artists in the field of electronic music.

The show quickly developed from the first pre-productions to a live broadcast, which can be heard every four weeks on Saturdays from 7pm to midnight on the open channel Jena on UKW 103.4 Mhz and via online stream (https://radio-okj.de/wp-content/themes/radiookj/okj-player.html).

With a steadily growing fan base, RADIO ELECTRONICA is still a firm institution in the field of electronic music in Jena and beyond the city limits. Besides the latest scene trends and record presentations, studio guests are a big part of the show.
