Hands Of A Lunatic

Mantira - Hands Of A Lunatic (Extended Mix)

Mantira - Upscaler (Extended Mix)

After his incredible remix work on the K90 classic ‘Above the Clouds’ earlier in the year, Andrew Martin a.k.a. Mantira drops his first original work on Dataless in the form of an infectious two tracker - Tonic Accent and Counterpoint. Tech fuelled beats, trouser wobbling bass and mesmeric leads are very much the order of the day in what is an extremely strong and well produced release.

Fish56Octagon feat Issey Cross - Dreaming '25' (Feelings) (Mark Sherry Remix) PREVIEW

Jamming on synthesizers and a drum machine, using a looper pedal to make techno live sets, with added layers of jazz.
Lets pull back the curtain on live, improvised techno.
The 159th Episode of the improvised, jammed-from-scratch, live techno-with-jazzy-sprinkles improvised show is here. 

It's entirely made up from scratch, started from zero, no pre-programmed sequences, loops or anything. Join me as I try and come up with a set off the top of my head using synths, drum machines and a looper, and layer jazzy sprinkles of electronic jazz piano over the top. 

Celebrate midnight and the beginning of the weekend!

Help me pick a random patch for the microfreak.
