MANTI RETURNS TO AUTOMATIK WITH ‘REDEMPTION’

THE NEW SINGLE IS OUT NOW AS PART OF AUTOMATIK’S INTERSTELLAR VA II COMPILATION.

Riding a wave of international acclaim following her blistering three-track EP debut on Automatik back in August (‘My Way’), LA-based Iranian producer and NXT founder MANTi now makes her return to Henri Bergmann’s esteemed London imprint with her eagerly anticipated follow up single ‘Redemption’.

Out now, as part of Automatik’s Interstellar VA II compilation, the new single is the latest offering in a string of hard-hitting releases from the California-based artist over past twelve months; a year which has seen her exponentially expand her global appeal with some remarkable output on the likes of Zamna, KIOSK ID, Elektrons, Akumandra, Marginalia, Black Rose, Motivant, Sequence, Natura Viva, Ear Porn and Amaeo.

A powerful and emotionally charged production, backboned by industrial synth structures, swirling pads and a heady blend of pulsating four-four rhythms, Mana’s trademark amalgam of trippy and tenacious club music shines front and centre across ‘Redemption’, as she pulls out all the stops with yet another majestic peak time weapon.

“Returning to Automatik with ‘Redemption’ feels like coming full circle for me this year,” MANTi shared. “This track represents a journey through struggle and resilience, channelling the amazing energy and support I’ve been building the past twelve months. I’m thrilled to be part of Automatik’s Interstellar VA II alongside so many inspiring artists and I can’t wait for listeners to experience this release on the dancefloor.”

Touted by DJ Mag and Beatportal as one of most hyped artists of the summer, and with her releases consistently making their way into Beatport’s Best New Melodic House and Techno Charts, Mana Nabati – aka MANTi – is fast becoming one of the most exciting rising talents on the underground circuit. Crafting a unique and distinctive sound palette through an immersive education in Music Production and Sound Design at Point Blank Music School in LA, MANTi’s sonic journey is characterised by deep, melodic and atmospheric compositions that champion resonant basslines and vibrant synth work; her work gracing leading labels including Zamna, Automatik, Kiosk I.D, Elektrons, Marginalia, LSF21+, Borders of Light, Einmusika and Akumandra, amongst others.

Purveying an avant-garde sound project, injected with deep musicality and raw, stripped-back minimalism, MANTi has shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the industry over the course of her career, performing alongside the likes of Cirez D, John Digweed, Adriatique, Mathame, Kevin de Vries, Woo York and many more. Making her festival debut at Dreamfields Mexico in 2022, she has since caught the attention of audiences worldwide, leading her to grace the DJ booths of some of the world’s most renowned venues and festivals, including Berlin’s iconic Kater Blau and Germany’s Fusion Festival. Looking forward, with confirmed performances at the likes of BPM and SXM festival in early 2025 and brand new releases already penned for Zamna, Marginalia, Automatik and Innuendo, to name a few, there seems to be no slowing the inexorable drive of MANTi, as she looks to leave her indelible mark on the global house and techno scene.

Launched in 2019 by Henri Bergmann, Automatik is an underground electronic music label based in London. Over the past five years, the label has become a respected platform for fresh and innovative club music, with a focus on progressive and melodic house and techno. Ever since its debut release ‘Interference’ by Henri in April 2019, the label has gained global attention through a series of original EPs, singles, remixes and VA compilations. With a strong emphasis placed on supporting new and upcoming talent, Automatik marked its inaugural London showcase in December 2023.

CAROLA AND 7KY RELEASE THEIR NEWEST DISCO-FUSED HOUSE SINGLE "ABC" ON INSOMNIAC'S IN / ROTATION

BRAZIL’S BUZZING HOUSE EXPERT TEAMS UP WITH SINGER/SONGWRITER 7KY FOR THEIR GROOVY COLLAB ON INSOMNIAC’S OFFSHOOT IMPRINT.

Brazilian producer Carola and multi-talented artist 7KY are teaming up for their new collab, “ABC,” set to be released via Insomniac’s offshoot imprint IN / ROTATION on November 12.

“ABC” is a late-night disco-infused house single that rides along a catchy alphabetical-style topline. The track is designed for the dancefloor, delivering a fresh

twist with its smooth, breathy falsetto that rolls atop sleek guitar licks, funky basslines, strutting rhythms, and vintage pad lines.

Based out of Brazil, Carola is a producer whose stock has been rising within the house music scene, especially as she shifts into more groovy, disco-led pastures after breaking out in the tech house lane. She previously lit up the label with her single “Run The Night,” which received praise from outlets like This Song Slaps, Prelude Press, and Acid Stag. She has also held an impressive schedule of renowned festivals including EDC Las Vegas, Rock in Rio, Tomorrowland, Lollapalooza Brazil, and EDC Orlando, proving her reputation as one to watch on both the national and international stage.

7KY is an artist known for blending genres across psychedelic pop and experimental EDM. As a songwriter, vocalist, composer, and producer, he has collaborated with notable artists like Bijou, Avonlea, Axway, and GRHHH, and now offers a unique creative touch to “ABC”.

On the collaboration, 7KY captures the track's feeling of uninhibited joy, saying, “‘ABC’ is the feeling of being yourself and totally free at a function. Running around saying hi to people; perhaps, pursuing someone you think is attractive, and overall having a silly goose time.”

With “ABC” CAROLA and 7KY combine infectious confidence and undeniable charisma in a disco house package.

With over a decade-long career, Carolina Alcântara, aka Carola, from Porto Alegre, is a true force in electronic music. In 2020, Carola became the first female producer to

release music on Martin Garrix's STMPD Records. The following year, she made history as the first Brazilian artist to perform on the main stage of Tomorrowland Belgium. In addition to shining at major festivals like EDC and Lollapalooza, she also left her mark at NFL Brazil and opened over 23 shows on Sofi Tukker's Bread Tour in the U.S. and Canada.

MALAA’S ALTER EGO DROPS AN ELECTRIFYING DISCO-TECHNO ANTHEM, ‘MANGO DISCO’, FEATURING RISING STAR ODYMEL

Just when the battle between Malaa and his Alter Ego couldn’t get any fiercer, the two strike again – but this time, DJ and producer Odymel chooses his side. Joining forces with the Alter Ego, Odymel collaborates on the new high-energy track ‘Mango Disco’. Fresh off the success of Malaa’s recent release ‘Make It Work’, the masked Alter Ego keeps the energy fired up, with a high-octane anthem that showcases hard techno in its truest form.

Infused with playful and infectious melodies, ‘Mango Disco’ showcases a brighter disco-inspired side of production from the Alter Ego, while staying true to its essence and incorporating Odymel’s signature high-energy touch. Known for his eclectic mix of house, techno, trance, and Eurodance, Odymel has rapidly gained attention since his debut in early 2023, captivating audiences with wild, melody-driven rave experiences. Together, the duo delivers a track that’s as surprising as it is addictive—a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for any rave or club night.

This fresh collaboration highlights Malaa’s evolution as an artist who consistently defies genre boundaries. Just last week, the Alter Ego made his debut on stage with a full drum & bass set, giving fans an electrifying first look at his live energy. And as if that wasn’t enough, he's already teasing new merch, keeping the hype building for what's next. Fans can expect the infectious vibes of ‘Mango Disco’ to become a staple in the live sets of Malaa’s Alter Ego.

Malaa’s Alter Ego is the rebellious counterpart to the masked French DJ and producer, born out of the need to disrupt the status quo in the electronic music scene. While Malaa is known for his deep, darker house sound and enigmatic persona, his Alter Ego breaks free from those constraints, challenging both the music industry and Malaa himself.

This new identity is outspoken, chaotic, and unfiltered, taking a more experimental approach to electronic music, blending genres and sounds that is a step away from the signature Malaa style. Malaa’s Alter Ego represents a new chapter, bringing a raw, unpredictable energy to the stage and online, where it has already taken over Malaa’s social media, stirring controversy and inviting fans to “choose a side.” With this daring project, Malaa’s Alter Ego seeks to push boundaries and create a new space in the world of electronic music where rules are meant to be broken.
