Talking Heads - This Must Be The Place L'Equipe du Son Rework

Francky Vincent - Fruit de la Passion L'Equipe du Son Rework

Manual Music traditionally ends it's year with a big Manualism compilation, packed with a bunch of brand new tracks and previously unreleased remixes. No less than twenty quality songs this time, all in trademark Manual Music vibe, ranging from moody deep house, rattling off beat electronica, dreamy progressive house and rolling techno.

We see familiar label artists such as Qbical, Paul Hazendonk, Dustin Nantais, Max Cue and Acud, artists that have already made an appearance on the MNL sister label such as Kamilo Sanclemente, Namatjira, Antrim, Space Motion, Sounom & Sagou and Ming, complemented with a couple of very talented newcomers and artists that have already made name for theirselves elsewhere but make their debut within the Manual family.

Manualism XI is a playlists on it's own, a document in time painting a clear picture of what Manual Music stands for right here, right now. All connected together by the beautiful artwork by the man who has been creating the look of the label since the very first release in 2005, Joe Manish. Enjoy!

TD, Paul Hazendonk - Without You (L'Equipe du Son Remix)

Foreign Boy is a lover of all things Italo and Hi Nrg, producing and
releasing modern italo hits with vintage feelings. Foreign Boy first got
noticed with his release of his modern italo classic “Dance Like A Light”
a perfect example of his focus on driving disco beats, arpeggiated bass lines,
funky riffs and unforgettable vocal hooks, and Touch Me is no different!

Touch Me was born from a Italo Disco weekend in Amsterdam.
Driving round the city with a choice Italo soundtrack was the spark that
sent Foreign Boy into the studio full of inspiration.
Touch Me features vocals from Foreign Boy himself, with his roots as a punk rocker he dazzles the track with a pure punk avant-garde vocal hook to complement the Italo backdrop.  

Remixes come from Aux the Masterfader, Nude Disco and L’Equipe du Son

Aux the Masterfader his remix was heavily influenced by Prince & chicago house. Known for his love for analog gear the Synthmeister used his beloved LinnDrum, Juno 60, Polysix, Oberheim Matrix 6 and Roland SH-2 for this remix.
The result; driving disco beats, rolling bass lines and warm synthesizers.

Nude Disco produces synth pop tinged with 80’s disco with european influences.
“This remix was a pleasure to do for my good friend Foreign Boy who has also been a resident at my Nude Disco club nights and a mainstay on the Nude Disco label. My mix was the last piece of work I did in my now defunct London studio and contained all the elements I love. Machine drum hits, FM Bass and Trevor Horn inspired brass stabs.” That's some straight up disco love from one bro to another! <3

After hearing the ep for the first time Silhouette’s head honcho L’Equipe du Son was so inspired he made a remix himself and the result is a funk driven track, build on the classic ‘707 drums - Moog baseline combo’. #classicshit

Lesson 1

Before there was the 909, there was the 808. And before there was the 808, there was the mighty 707! 
The TR-707 was a staple in Disco and early House music and it's the driving force behind our new release, L'Equipe du Son - 8bit Disco Club!

8bit Disco Club is from Silhouette Musics very own L'Equipe du Son, and its three tracks of pure disco magic with a touch of 80's electronic.

The opening track Move on Baby is a late-night cosmic disco turn on Capella's original Move on Baby which topped the charts throughout the world in the early 90's.

Pistachios are Nuts has a more Balearic touch to it with acoustic samples and shimmering pads.

Atari's Disco is more Italo flavoured and build upon the iconic ARP2600 synthesizer. The Arp squalls and squiggles, taking you on an adventurous journey through an 8 bit wonderland! 

PS. The artwork is made by L'Equipe himself, some even say it's a self portrait..
