Disco-infused house music stands a good chance of becoming the predominant sound on dance-floors this summer. Of Irish origin and now living in Berlin, Mano Le Tough belongs to a new generation of young artists who fuse sugar-sweet synth lines and contemporary house beats with sprinkles of soulful melancholy.
Interest in Mano's productions has been rapidly growing, not only in the German capital but also in Scandinavia, where Prins Thomas has signed the up and coming producer to his well-known Internasjonal label.
His debut for Internasjonal, 2009's ' Warhorn EP' was followed up by ' Oblique' this June, which included a remix by Parisian house stars Château Flight. More of his emotional, yet highly danceable tracks appeared on Mirau Musik and most recently on Dirt Crew Recordings, who released Mano's ' Baby Let's Love' single this week.
With a schedule that's getting busier by the day, we are happy that Mano has found the time to pick five of his favourites for zero", all guaranteed to touch your soul and provide perfect summer listening.
