MANIK announces ‘undergroundknowledge’ LP coming on Ovum

MANIK has announced his latest LP which is due on Ovum on 6th October.

Titled ‘Undergroundknowledge’ he explains the album as “A journey into Queens on the 7 train. It flips through my history (my youth and the sights, smells, and sounds around me) and is a window on how I grew up. Musicality wise, I wanted to explore my background of house music, but also dig deeper on the jazzy and hip-hop influences.”

MANIK fired on to electronic music scene in 2011 with releases on Ovum, Poker Flat and Culprit. The Queen’s native is the quintessential New York DJ; a connoisseur of dance music with an inimitable style that crosses multiple genres. A seasoned crate digger, MANIK spends hours in record shops to find those forgotten records and hidden gems. Since his electronic beginning, he has also released on labels including B-Pitch Control, Kim Ann Foxman’s Firehouse, Huxley’s label NIO, Fresh Meat Chicago and he is known for cheeky edits of Janet Jackson and the Beastie Boys.

Recently he’s released on Love Story Recordings,  No Idea’s Original, Culprit and Viva Music to name but a few, we are super excited to here the new LP!
