LATEST SHOW ARCHIVE MANTIS 055 + DATACRASHROBOT & LOGICAL DISORDER

Coming up this week, not 1, but 2 showcase guest mixes from producers Datacrashrobot and Logical Disorder. Both have a slew of releases, both with a sizeable back catalogue of netlabel pieces. For our 55th show we’ve got an electro and IDM show down of forward thinking electronica.

SHOWCASE MIX 1// Datacrashrobot is the electro/experimental project of one Sorin Paun. In early 2008, influenced by the classic electro sound, he started producing tracks which he describes as
following a journey into the cold, mechanical, information overloaded mind of robots. The beat is drowned in dark ambiance or broken and twisted, overloaded with effects and glitches creating a state of malfunction and collapse.

SHOWCASE MIX 2// Logical Disorder is the name of the therapy that Javier Barrero use to balance his sinusoidal sense of duty. He develops his sounds focusing on ambient and post industrialism, remembering as he puts it
pop phrases and sometimes epic funeral melodies.

DVNT started DJing back in 2003 whilst at University. His interest then, was mainly in nuskool breaks and drum n bass & jungle. He has held residencies at T-Dance, Greenpeace Lincoln, and Eclectic Beats, as well as weekly residencies at The Attic and Bar Ingo of Lincoln as well as playing pretty much every venue in his Uni city.

RADIO

MANTIS radio kicked off with DVNT at the helm in May 2007, and the last two years has seen DVNT develop the distinctive DJ sound best described as darkfloor electronica. DVNT’s sets combine elements of techno, electro, breaks, dubstep, glitch and ambient into a fresh and irresistable flow, with leanings towards the darker and deeper textures of electronic music.

Each MANTIS radio show has also featured guest showcases from established or up and coming producers. Previous guests have included Galaxian, Gunjack, Jerome Hill, Bushby, Paul Blackford, Concrete DJz and Si Begg amongst many others.

“DVNT’s extensive archive of past radio shows is well worth checking out for some storming darkfloor electronica action

- High quality audio transmissions, right on the button.”

- Olaf Quintessa from Fresh Static

He’s had guest mixes aired on nsbradio, Resonance FM, and Pointblank FM.

All the radio shows are archived and podcasted, he’s always up for pushing unsigned talent, as well as supporting netaudio labels and producers.

LABEL

In addition to DJing and hosting a popular radio show, DVNT co-runs the music label: midnightminustwo, which has had support from James Holden, Peter Kruder, Stacey Pullen, Ripperton, Fine Cut Bodies and Laurent Garnier.

Its primary concern is that of deep, dark, bass rich, textured sound.

MANTIS, the darkfloor electronica radio show

MANTIS is the radio show pushing this sound collection. It started in 2007 on Brap FM. Currently the show is broadcast fortnightly on southwestunderground radio (SWU). The show pushes unsigned talent alongside established and upcoming producers. It also plays alongside commercially available sound, that of the ever growing netaudio scene.

Each broadcast showcases an artist/producer/label who provide an exclusive mix for air. Every one of these is made available as MP3 archives. A lot of radio shows stick to one or two music genres, on MANTIS there is no limit to the range of styles of music you're likely to hear during each broadcast.

Featuring every broadcast of the show, plus the MANTIS presents: series (an ongoing collection of live, studio, old and new mixes from our ever growing showcased artists) and DVNT darkfloor mixes, both studio and live recordings.

MANTIS is hosted by DVNT.
