MANIK makes his full Anjunadeep debut with “Far Away / Mulberry”, following remixes for Beckwith and Jody Wisternoff. EPs with Black Butter, Ovum and Moda Black over the past 12 months have accelerated the New Yorker’s rise into house music’s A-list.
Featuring the ethereal vocals of Eli & Fur, “Far Away” combines tough driving percussion with dark, atmospheric low end. Keeping melodic subtlety in such a dancefloor focused track is no easy feat, but MANIK pulls it off in style. A real peak-time weapon in the right hands.
“Mulberry” is a bouncier affair, built around rising bass notes and crisp shuffling drums, once again wound together by atmospheric textures and an infectious melodic groove.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Anjunadeep is the label that knows what it really takes to follow your heart and risk without caring what the current trend is at the moment. Now that everybody listens to the so called fast food deep house music Anjunadeep is one of the coolest outlets that serves credible classy underground deep house. Anjunadeep presents the latest release by MANIK including two fantastic alternatives to average commercially oriented deep house sounds. Far Away features chopped heavily echoed Eli & Fur vocals that stay somewhere in the background as the track privileges the bouncy deep bassline and fat techy groove along with 90's influences, warm cinematic strings, luscious warm atmosphere and hypnotic rhythm that keep you locked in the middle of the dancefloor. This is Deep spacey eclectic moody House for clubs and festivals. Mulberry on the other hand is an excellent techier moody affair with bubbly breakbeat like groove, deep grumpy basslines, cool synthy melodies while on top ambient chill out elements are added to give the track this complex texture that you want to explore in greater depth and you are very curious what maybe hidden inside like small kids unwrap kinder eggs to find the small toy that will give them huge pleasure like the one we get when we get exposed to classy sounds of MANIK. #PureClass Love it
