A Conversation with Atish and a House/Techno Booking Agent (Gunita Nagpaul of listed Bookings)

I sat down with Gunita Nagpaul, head booking agent of Listed Bookings, and we discussed some of the most common questions around the bookings side of the industry: How do I get gigs outside my home town? How can I get a booking agent? How can a booking agent help move my career forward? And many others…

Hopefully this conversation can help you on your career journey!

Discord Demo Day with guest host Mark Slee

Delighted to have welcomed my Manjumasi co-conspirator Mark Slee as my guest on the latest instalment of Discord Demo Day.

I’ve known Mark for 23 years. He is a man of many talents, but his releases on Manjumasi, Cityfox, Seven Villas, and Kindisch amongst others, speak to his sonic voice in the industry as a respected producer. Beyond the DAW, Mark and I work closely together every day on our Manjumasi label imprint, and we heavily rely on each other’s ears for reviewing and critiquing music.

Given all the projects we’ve worked on, I’ve always appreciated that Mark has a unique ability to both analyze how things fit in the big picture while simultaneously (and sometimes neurotically) being able to get deep in the details.

Hope you enjoy!

‘Baby Steps & Grand Gestures’ from Padre out now on Manjumasi

Happy to announce our latest Manjumasi release this week, “Baby Steps and Grand Gestures” by Padre aka Pete Lazonby. Pete sent these tracks our way back in 2020, and from the first few seconds of listening, I knew there was something special. This is our first label release with vocals, and I love that it’s music that’s really hard to stylistically put in a box and keeps me on the edge of the seat.

We released this on vinyl last year, and happy to have it available on digital with stellar remixes from Powel and Floyd Lavine.

Discord Demo Day with guest host Jeremy Olander

I was thrilled to have Jeremy Olander as my guest host for the last Discord Demo Day of 2021. Jeremy is a melodic house and techno production wizard with his music showcased through his own Vivrant imprint, and he’s also released on prestigious labels such as Anjunadeep, Suara, and Last Night on Earth amongst others. I’m a big fan of his music, hope you enjoy watching!
