(Is there anything more retro-inspired than Manila Killa’s new set for his 2019 solo tour? Seeing all of the very highlights of 2018 electronic music production turn away from house and tropical beats to synths… a new zeitgeist. Who knows. )
Manila Killa, along with artists such as Hotel Garuda and Jai Wolf, represent a new generation of electronic artists that draw inspiration from cross-cultural experiences and the timelessness of the previous three decades of music. Manila Killa has produced such a wide range of tracks, from tropical house, now to the Daft Punk inspired titular track to his EP, 1993.
Nostalgia, starry skies and dreaming is in, summer-vibes, letting loose and sunshine are out. Encapsulating the feeling of the track himself, “a moment that you’ll most likely never live again, but always remember as being beautiful”.
