MANTi Debuts on Automatik with ‘My Way’ EP

A burgeoning force within Los Angeles’s vibrant house and techno scene, Iranian producer, DJ and NXT founder MANTi is quickly garnering a reputation as one of the most industrious new artists to emerge out of North America over the past few years. Presenting a sound palette that’s as raw and dynamic as it is refined, the Tehran-born talent now lands on Henri’s esteemed Automatik imprint with her latest EP, ‘My Way’.

Making her eagerly anticipated debut on the London record label armed with a string of successful releases on the likes of Marginalia, Akumandra, Zamna, Einmusika, Sequence Music, LSF21+ and Borders of Light, amongst others, MANTi’s new three-track offering on Automatik represents the latest career milestone for the LA-based artist, as she delivers a diverse masterclass in intelligent, avant-garde dance music that captivates from the outset.

 

Christening the EP is the impressive title track, ‘My Way’. A slow burning slice of intricately textured melodic techno, MANTi’s expert treatment of digital instrumentation, warped vocal samples and chugging drums across the opener delivers in spades, as she sets the tone for the rest of the package. A mind-bending cut that harnesses driving kicks and an intoxicating web of industrial synthesizers, this is MANTi at her very best.

Next up is the formidable ‘Cyber Code’. Pairing trippy sound design with a highly infectious central motif, the intense middle order sees MANTi dart between undulating and piercing tones to unleash a deft mosaic of juxtaposed elements; a unique production style that has quickly become her celebrated hallmark.

Last, but by no means least, we’re treated to a groove-inducing finale in the form of ‘Get Lost’. Presenting another masterful array of punchy drums and complementary synth components that weave effortlessly in between one another, the third and final cut takes listeners on a euphoric peak-time journey as MANTi continues to push her own creative boundaries to close out a remarkable debut on Automatik.

Speaking about the release, MANTi commented:

“Henri’s Automatik label has been on my radar for a while now, and I am really impressed by its rapid growth over the past year. It’s an absolute pleasure to be part of Automatik with this release. Each track on the EP is distinct, showcasing a diverse and avant-garde sound. I always aimed to push myself creatively with each release, and Henri’s label was the perfect home for these three tracks”.
