After a 10-year hiatus, Manoel returns to the music scene with a new single and a fresh perspective that’ll take you on quite the journey. Manoel has been in the music industry since the late 80s as a remarkable DJ, his musical influences and style developed from different genres and artists he came across along his 20-year journey. From the 90s music to the modern electronic sounds, and artists like Hidden Orchestra, Bonobo, Kiasmos, Massive Attack, and Kollektiv Turmstrasse, among others. The artist has a long list of successful releases and tracks dating from 2005 under his previous name “Djazzy” like “Senti Sabi”, “The Look in Your Eyes” and, “Horns from Heaven”.
The Portugal-based producer just released “Dystopia”; an instrumental track with different themes and variations that takes you on a visualized journey through sound. The track has a cinematic, hypnotic approach which is a fresh sound for the artist. It appears simple at first but then it smoothly lures you into its various transitions. New elements and sound effects are introduced every now and then, building up towards something as if it’s telling a story of its own till it all fades out. The song was created, mixed, and mastered by the artist himself in his studio. We surely can’t wait to see what Manoel releases next!
