nejrup: manda
Francisco Espregueira
Nejrup, a Copenhagen-based newcomer, is releasing his debut EP this week. Manda merges contemporary house with space-age jazz & broken beat and his backed a trademark remix from London soul stalwart K15. The compositions, despite being made for the dancefloor, are intricate, with a jazz centered approach, combining dance grooves, modular soundscapes and live instrumentation.
Result of years of experimentation, Nejrup’s Manda progresses through profound harmonies, airy synths and an improvised live feeling. Released by Creak Inc. Records, the EP is available on vinyl. It’s a warm surprise of talent and vision, by a producer clearly dedicated to his craft. Don’t sleep on this one.
