Tracklist + Q&A: https://bit.ly/TheMix047ManPower 

North Shields' underground powerhouse @Manpower-1 transports us to Panorama Bar with his leftfield mix.

"I wanted to make this mix feel special and different to my other mixes I've done in the last 12 months. I decided I'd try to make it as representative as possible of how I've been playing recently, so to do that I've picked a bunch of tracks exclusively from the music my USB tells me that I played at a gig at Panorama Bar a few weeks ago. I reckon that's the best way to give an honest a snapshot of stuff I play — it's just short of providing a live recording from a club."

Following the haunting atmospheres of their debut single Secret Forest, UK duo Altered View return to Inner Shah Recordings with Fast Paced Life — the first glimpse into their forthcoming debut album Midnight Area.

True to its name, Fast Paced Life channels the tension and thrill of modern overstimulation, fusing brooding synth layers with propulsive rhythms and a cold, post-industrial edge. It’s a sharp statement of intent from the duo, further carving out their singular blend of darkwave-leaning Indie Dance.

The release comes with two standout remixes. Radondo reworks the track into a dancefloor weapon, where his trademark blend of Dark Disco and Italo Dance turns the tension into a hypnotic late-night pulse. Man Power, on the other hand, strips things back and injects a heavy dose of old school electro grit — raw, wired, and urgent.

Fast Paced Life marks release number 88 on Inner Shah Recordings and sets the tone for what promises to be a striking debut LP from Altered View.

Early Supports from:
Armen Miran, Audio Junkies, Christian Homan, DJ Harvey, Dubfire, Franz Scala, Joyce Muniz, Justin Strauss, Kristian Beyer (Âme) Maceo Plex, Norbert Borzym, Severino Panzetta, Simon Shackleton, Skelesys, Tronik Youth & more.
