Ovum Recordings close out 2009 and step into '10 with their latest digital only release from M A N I K. The twenty four year old, New York based producer is by no means your typical artist. A Music Business graduate, and multi-genre producer, his style is a unique blend of cutting edge house, futuristic techno, deep old school grooves and a large helping of dark edgy sounds. He has already won great DJ support from the likes of Luca Bacchetti, Mazi, Till von Sein, Burnski and of course Josh Wink. 2010 is set to be a fantastic and ground-breaking year for Chris Manik, which will see him releasing material under both his M A N I K and Chatterbox alias, on such esteemed labels as the Four:Twenty and Fresh Meat. Today he makes his debut on Ovum Recordings. Opening the three track offering is 'Park The Slope'. A wonderfully deep, jazzy cut. Its soft keys and guitar licks work to perfection, in partnership with its piercing cymbal and electronic bassline. 'Rau Down Low' is deep techno at its best. The opening sparkling hi-hat and melodic synth stabs vie for attention with those piercing cymbals and snare drum. Then we crazy video game sounds enter the fray. A host of sounds, that together, work brilliantly to give us an oldschool sound with a new school touch. Finally we are treated to 'N Train To Astoria'. Again the stick work on the hi-hats is a joy to behold, and works fantastically with the pulsing deep synths, which in turn layer underneath the vicious acid line. The acid takes over the show midway, but the deepness returns to win the day. Overall and quite stunning collection of work to celebrate the debut of this exciting new talent from the United States. A name to watch out for and a success story in the making...
