Formerly one of the resident DJs [...]

Coefficient is a mysterious London producer and DJ. He has had releases on Labrynth of Portugal and the Italian M_Rec Ltd. What little details there are surrounding Coefficient amount to: that he began the project in 2006 and with michaelangelo of Labrynth produces as Telesthesia (exclusively vinyl only released offbeat techno); and that he describes his music as being dark, hypnotic, industrial and experimental techno.

So here we have our 3rd MANTIS presents. Coming quite fittingly from our 3rd showcased DJ: Mr Seavers. He was on the show back in mid 2007 and did a storming set live in the studio. We’ve remained good mates since. He helped host the 4th show and around December 2007 we decided to occasionally perform together as CONFOUNDED.

(coming soon)

Coming up this week we have a bit of Techno Takeover courtesy of CONFOUNDED. In a similar style to MANTIS 022 with HENRY (MYUZYK) vs DVNT it’s a joint host kinda feel. CONFOUNDED are DVNT and Mr Seavers.

Round 4. Blimey, well with just 20 minutes to air we at MANTIS HQ received the showcase from EVAC. And although he cut it fine, the results were outstanding. The feedback whilst broadcasting was rather on the positive side. Excellent downtempo and carefully programmed electronica, which we heartily recommend.

Mark cut his DJing teeth playing for Flatline at The Bomb in Nottingham. Slots at a variety of small clubs and bars in the area followed, both solo and as part of Breaks duo Max Hedroom, graduating to sets at seminal breaks night Spectrum, London-based Ffaction, and the near-legendary “Max Hedroom presents” nights in the last few days of The Bomb’s existance – mixing up Dubstep, Tough Electro and bowel-loosening Hard Techno to devastating effect with fellow cohorts Gareth Williams and Max Cooper.
