Kicking it between Berlin, London and his hometown of Melbourne the last few years, Mic Newman, now better known for his Fantastic Man alias, has become one of the main leading stalwarts pushing punchy, tripped out house cuts out of Australia. Although now based in Berlin for the moment, a string of 2016 releases mixed with some fortunate good timing meant he was trail-blazing through releasing some of his best-received music in the short timeframe of six months. The summer sees him busier than ever, lining up gigs at Razzmataz, Panorama Bar, Festival Les Escales, Sugarfactory and some Australian dates to name a few. Catching up a month before he gets set to play his fourth Love International festival over in Tisno, Croatia, Mic kindly delivered our 217th Truancy Volume. We also threw some questions his way, discussing the last seven years of Fantastic Man, his new P.M.T.C alias, the label (Superconcious Records) he runs with Francis Inferno Orchestra, and taking mushrooms for the first time on one of his favourite teenage summer holiday. Opening with a forthcoming track from FIO called 'Hygiene', Mic excels from the start on this hour long mix, blending wistful melodies with soft tribal atmospherics for a dazzling 217th instalment.
