ARTIST: SLOW HEARTS
TITLE: JUNO/CERES
REMIXERS: DEATH ON THE BALCONY, OMINOUS
LABEL : MOTEK MUSIC
RELEASE DATE: 09/11/2015
FORMAT: DIGITAL 

Motek welcomes German duo Slow Hearts for their first EP on the label. Following the single “Skyfall” on Motek VA “Out Of The Shadows”, the boys have delivered an exciting and eclectic 2 track EP. Firstly “Juno” is a Techno/Deep cross full of driving elements from bass through to percussion, providing the tracks identity. Off this, airy pads, bouncy lead lines and a variety of quirky, bold effect and synth additions create the story in the piece. The second production in this EP “Ceres” takes on an entirely different feel, moving into the world of electronica. Ceres keeps a slow four to the floor kick drum but is given a faster 6/8 feel. These 2 rhythmic elements work beautifully together to bring interest and intrigue throughout the different sections of the track. Remixing for this release are Death on the Balcony and Ominous. Death on the Balcony have created a straight down groove based remix of Juno. Punchy bass and percussive elements over a strong kick drive the track, growing with string pads and vocal effects which explore the spaces left. Ominous have put their take on Ceres, moving it into a faster space with many quick elements including open and washy drum parts alongside pulsing synth sections. This has given the track a peak time option whilst subtly keeping the identity of the original.

The 176th release on Manual Music finds the label showcasing the second single from Noraj Cue's critically acclaimed 'Kobalt' LP. Released in September of this year, the 15 track album saw the Dutch producer craft a border-less selection of music, which went down as his most creative and also best work to date. The LP's second track 'Earth In Decay' was a showcase of Noraj's precise craftsmanship, with its storyboard of unpredictable keys and minimalistic, yet bouncy design. Not only being a great listen but also one of the album's most contemporary dance floor selections, it makes for a perfect second single which is accompanied by remixes from  Rob Hes, Mark Mywords and Taras van de Voorde.

The lone interpretation of 'Earth In Decay' is provided by Rob Hes who is returning to Manual Music for his fourth appearance. The Dutch artist famed for his productions on Bedrock, Herzblut and Tronic has carved out a unique place in the techno underground. Rob's uncanny knack for creating musical techno with boundless energy has earned him praise from Dubfire, John Digweed and Oliver Huntemann. A recent release on Pig & Dan's Elevate imprint proved to be some of Rob's most inspired work this year, and he's delivered an excellent rendition of 'Earth In Decay' to keep that strong momentum going. With a radically revamped groove and dynamic beats Rob has transformed the laid back, musical wonder into a fantastic dance floor journey. Reprocessed to perfection, the lead motif carries the rumbling groove and percussive waves on a wonky ride, all culminating with an exhilarating third act finale led by unpredictable modulation and splendid design. 

The EP's second interpretation is provided by Mark Mywords who is returning to the label for his second appearance.  The Dutch artist first appeared on Manual Music in 2011 with a contribution to the labels 'Manualism 5.0' compilation and also boasts releases on Consumed Records, Rawthentic and Tronic Music. For his 'Die Andere Zaal' interpretation Mark has remodelled Noraj's warped and druggy themes into a groovy, techno stomper. Anchored by mammoth beats and a warehouse-style groove Mark expertly incorporates the distinctive vocal elements, along with his own brand of acidic funk, the latter of which makes for a mind bending break, ultimately setting up what is sure to be a magical dance floor moment. 

The EP's third interpretation is provided by Taras Van De Voorde who is making his sixth appearance on Manual Music. In addition to Manual the Dutch producer has found a home on Moodmusic, Noir Music, Saved Records and Suara where his timeless techno sound has flourished. His keen musical sense and attention to detail are rare in today's volume based production approach. It's these traits which have made him the perfect choice to remix one of the album's most critical pieces, it's closer 'Walk Back Home'. Beginning with seaside motifs, warm overlays and kaleidoscopic bass tones it's immediately compelling and deeply emotional. Poignant keys lead the piece into its second act where it's cavernous groove opens further, carving out more emotive qualities and ultimately a heartfelt conclusion. 

The release concludes with the previously unreleased 'Extended Dub' of 'Stubborn To The Bone'. Sitting as the albums eighth selection it saw Noraj exploring the funk and soul inspired elements of his studio repertoire. It not only took the album in a new and inspiring direction but further solidified Noraj as an artist with a border-less mindset. The 'Extended Dub' brings the piece closer to more club floors with it's tougher sensibility and instrumental approach, all while retaining its romping, funk-laden flair. A timeless party anthem if ever there was one and a perfect conclusion to a release full of talent and variety from Manual Music. Don't miss it.

Release date: December 14 2015

Save the best for last is a known expression, and we might have just lived up to that cliche with 'My Soul', the new single by Kasall & Cristian R featuring Amber Long, which is the last MNL release of 2015.

The Argentinian duo have been on a roll lately with numerous releases on A-list labels such as Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat, Flow Records, Movement Recordings and Lowbit to name a few. This time they collaborate with Canadian vocalist Amber Long who's a familiar face to the Manual family by now and see her return with very personal and emotion filled vocals on 'My Soul'.

On remix duties we welcome not one, not two, but three great artists on board! First up is Manual resident Dustin Nantais who adds a fierce 'Donna Summer-esque' arpeggiator bassline to give the song a bit of extra push. Greek artist Simos Tagias makes his Manual debut and serves us a bubbly bouncey deep take whilst another debutant, Subandrio goes for the epic peak time treatment in both a full vocal- and a dub version.

What a way to close down 2015! See you again next year?

Release date: December 21 2015

UK born, but firmly settled in his adopted Austrian homeland, “sonic explorer" Orsen has caused quite a stir with his music gracing Replug, Particles and Optimized, and now finding a new home on Sudbeat. And here, we are treated big time, as you get not two, three or four tracks here, but five (count 'em!), and all oozing of coolness.

So lets get on with it and saturating off with the title track 'Komorebi'. This subtle gem grabs your attention from the off, creating an atmospheric deep vibe that evolves effortlessly, expanding with wondrous layers of magic. Melodic and war, yet as deep as you like.

Beautiful layers adorn 'Doves', as this smile inducing dance floor monster unfurls its hypnotic spell. A feel good track, with a rather apt name top boot.

We pick up the pace and take things a little darker with 'Fade'. This tasty building winner locks you in then unleashes is bass synth line that powerfully pushes this monster along.

'Tourist' is next up, and eludes warmth from every direction, as we are treated to a magnificent whimsical voyage, that seems to massage your mind and move your feet.

And to round things off nicely we have 'Organisms. This punchy little number develops superbly, with plenty of energy, and has a sophisticated synth line in the drop that really pricks up your ears before slamming back to action.
