Review: Next up from Me Me Me, Man Power touches down for three tidy overhauls as part of the second 'Genius Steals' drop, giving us three feisty breaks-driven designs. We open up with Man Power's Hans Zimmerframe Re-Fuck of 'Tom's Duh Duh DNA', a floating drift through classic vocal samples and warm chord progressions, of course lathered with stunning drum processing. Following this, we get a moog-driven rework of 'Invisible Man', again repurposing classic vocal patterns for quite the abstract finish. Finally, we bite into the Breakfast Club Sandwich edit of 'Snctfy Yrslf', another creation dripping in chord-driven nostalgia, utilising 80's style guitar riffs and synth lines for one final throwdown. Awesome work.

Review: Me Me Me welcomes back Italian producer Amarcord (best known for outings on N.O.I.A Recordings, Eskimo Recordings and Ritmo Fatale), and this time he's got Aussie new-waver Altutt in tow. In its original form, 'A New Light' sounds like an extra-atmospheric tribute to Vince Clarke-era Depeche Mode - all off-kilter beats, eyes-closed male vocals and dusty, immersive synth sounds. It's arguably even better in its 'Extended Dance Mix' and 'Instrumental Extended Dance Mix' forms, where Amarcord channels the spirit of those killer 12" remixes that usually accompanied new wave synth-pop singles of the early-to-mid '80s. The Depeche Mode tribute vibe continues via good-quality bonus cuts, 'A New Arcadia' and 'The Believer'.

Man Power, Junto Club & Club Tularosa - "Blood Money Power" (W/ Junto Club And Club Tularosa) - (6:35) 114 BPM 
Played by: Juno Recommends Disco
Review: "Currency is a cancer/Nihilism's not the answer/Capital is not our master/It's a symptom of the cancer"... we're firmly in the realms of agit-pop here as Man Power teams up with Junto Club & Club Tularosa on a bombastic slab of politically-oriented Italo/New Beat with a spoken vocal. If that's all a bit redolent of 80s performance art for you, though, then there's an accompanying instrumental version, while completing the EP (and credited to Man Power alone) are 'The Dogma Of Mill', which recalls classic early 90s techno from the likes of T99 or The Hypnotist, and the fluttering, pulsating, deceptively funky 'Praxis'.

Review: Given that he cites his musical heroes as Aphex Twin, Drexciya and Daniel Avery, it's perhaps not that surprising that Kiaki has chosen to avid publicity and cultivate a more enigmatic persona. Regardless, his debut EP - which lands on Man Power's Me Me Me imprint - undoubtedly hits the mark. It's an expansive affair that sees him deliver no less than five original productions, with standouts including the pitched-down post-IDM weight and creepiness of 'Now Then', the slow-build, vocal sample-sporting early morning oddness of electro-not-electro treat 'Last Breath' and the throbbing, dark Italo-influenced menace of 'Glaring'. The EP also boasts two reworks of 'Now Then': a wonderfully slow, chugging cosmic disco revision courtesy of Daniele Baldelli and DJ Rocca, and a foreboding chunk of gothic synth-pop from Juan Maclean.

Review: Something of an all-star collaboration here, as Me Me Me chief Man Power and former DFA Records stalwart Juan MacLean join forces as Juan Power. The headline attraction is arguably 'In Your Palm', where Mizbee's emotive vocals rise above a deliciously dirty, throbbing TB-303 bassline, sustained deep space chords, undulating acid lines and chugging house beats. It comes accompanied by a more stripped back, vocal-free 'No More Words' mix, plus two tidy bonus cuts: druggy slo-mo throb-job 'Communion' and the retro-futurist ambient soundscape 'Ascending To Florus', which features an impactful and thought-provoking (sampled) spoken word vocal.

Review: Following on from last year's Extraneous release on Warehouse, Cici debuts on Man Power's label. "Indigenous" is a nagging acid track: characterised by seductive bleeps and an evocative vocal sample, it chugs along seductively. "Venus" is based on a similar approach; once again, the arrangement is peppered with mysterious vocals, with Cici laying down a subtle break beat backing, while on the 'Deepr' mix of "Changeling", this emerging artist ventures into emotive, late-night techno. At the same time, Cici is also adept at crafting impactful club tracks, and the 'Techno' version of "Changeling" is a crafty, insistent affair, powered by tough kicks and rasping percussion.

Review: Man Power follows last year's inaugural Bed Wetter album with another introspective work focused on ambient and drone-led compositions. There's a neo-classical tinge to the melancholic "Calm (The Routine Safety Of Patterns)", while on "Gratitude (Again For The "First Time)", sonorous synths ebb and flow majestically. There is a more serene feeling on "Patience (A Life In The Day)", thanks to its combination of understated horns and ambient washes. Despite following a slower pace, at times this is also a deeply unsettling work; the darker side of the human psyche is audible on the jarring "Confusion (Pulling At A Thread)", the psychologist's couch conversation samples of "Paranoia (Different)" and the chilling, layered "Depression (The Loop)". It's a difficult but compelling listen.

Review: Hot on the heels of the release of his first single of 2021, the bustling, breakbeat-powered rave intensity of 'Sorted', Man Power returns to action with something equally as impactul. In its original form 'Monkey' does a brilliant job in balancing euphoric and sleazy electronic elements, with sparkling chords and excitable stabs vying for sound space with jacking house drums and a near psychedelic acid bassline. Those thrillingly wayward TB-303 sounds come to the fore on the accompanying 'Beyonders Testify mix', which also features ethereal flute sounds, foreboding bass, sparse electro drums and some lovely vocalisations. To round off a typically quirky EP, the Geordie producer gets into throbbing techno mode on late-night workout 'As The Cube Is To The Square'.

Review: No idea who GUN are (other than that they're almost certainly not the 90s guitar band) but here they come to Man Power's Me Me Me with three tracks served in a total of seven mixes. 'El Carbonara' is a dark cosmic/Italo chugger that's given an acidic, proggy makeover by REES & Sahar, while with 'The Reef' you can choose between old school Italo-house (Beef Mix), 80s/electro-inspired nu-disco (Fall Forward & Grainger Remix) or straight-up acid (Acid Dub). The standout for yours truly though is 'Boput', which is dark, slow and moody AF in its original form before the Kiaki Remix takes it darker, slower and moodier still!

Review: We don't know much about Deo'Jorge, other than that he's a New York-based DJ/producer who has run or managed countless events over the years. This outing on Me Me Me appears to be his debut EP and if so it's a hugely impressive first outing. The three original tracks on show each cannily combine throbbing, Italo-disco style arpeggiated basslines, thumping beats, sparkling synthesizers and the kind of Balearic musical flourishes often associated with Norway's space disco specialists. It's certainly fitting then that one of those, Prins Thomas, provides a predictably epic, constantly-rising revision of 'Sparking Plugs' that emphasises Deo'Jorge's subtle musical nods towards krautrock. In contrast, the Hardway Brothers' revision joins the dots between throbbing cosmic disco and the breezy brilliance of 'Sueno Latino'.

Review: Not much is known about Colors In Waves, the latest artist to release on Man Power's label, but one thing is certain - if you're looking for a distinctive take on house and techno, you've come to the right place. "Ultraviolet" starts the release in murky mode, with analogue riffs underpinned by a niggling acid line. On "Conservation of Attention", a similar tone is audible, as murky sound scapes are fused with a warbling bass, but on "Vulture", Colors In Waves throws off the lo-fi sounds in favour of spaced out Italo synths, while "Magnet" continues this journey, riding a throbbing groove. Roman Flugel's trippy take on the title track completes this exemplary release.

Review: Following years of extended service on DFA Records, Juan Maclean and regular collaborators Nancy Whang and Nicholas Millhiser have begun popping up on all manner of labels (most recently Aus and, more surprisingly, Going In - the latter with a 52-minute ambient track). Here they debut on Me Me Me, flitting between driving and percussive disco-house (the loopy and hedonistic 'I Can't Explain' and the celebratory release of 'City Life Disco'), sweaty early morning house sleaze ('Leave Me When You Can') and hazy hypnotism ('Ain't No Thing Baby', where echoing flute sounds occasionally rise above a tracky but unusual groove). Alinka provides the EP's only remix, a tooled-up, nu-disco style revision of 'I Can't Explain' that somehow sounds both loose and locked-in at the same time.

Review: Next up on Man Power's label is this collaboration between two of Bristol's most respected underground producers. The title track is a dramatic affair that resounds to soaring strings and a cascade of tripped out electronic tones. "Airheads" follows a similar aesthetic trajectory, but sees the duo add in a pulsating bass and clicking percussion to drive the musical elements. Meanwhile on "Buffalo", they go deeper. Teeming with expansive synths and underpinned by a lithe, wiry rhythm, it makes for a distinctive take on Detroit techno. Man Power's epic remix of "Airheads", where the melodies reach euphoric levels, completes this excellent EP.

Review: Take it back to the mid-20-teens and Newcastle Upon Tyne's Man Power, aka Geoff Kirkwood, was only just getting out of bed. With early releases on Jennifer Cardini's Correspondent and later John Talabot's Hivern Discs, Man Power has taken it all the way through ESP Institute, Optimo Trax and Throne Of Blood to Skint, DFA and of course the project's home label, Me Me Me. With a spotlight over three years of remix work that sees Me Me Me lift a selection of remixes made over Bryan Ferry to Daniele Baldelli & DJ Rocca, Man Power takes it back to the roots with a rework of Woolf vs Projections and Tronik Youth! With the heaviness of Man Power's remix to Ess O Ess a highlight too, expect a touch of acid, EBM, Italo and kosmische inspirations woven in and around bustling drum machines, analog synths and plenty of Man Power.

Review: Craig McNamara aka Last Magpie was behind a series of releases on Electric Minds and Hypercolour, but by 2015 he decided to take some time out from music to live the quiet life in the Lake District. Now he's back with a debut album that speaks to this period of reflection. It moves in tone from the sweeping ambience of "Feelings From The Depth Of My Soul" to "Exited", a more tense, droning affair, but that dreamy sensibility is also audible on the low-slung, deep house of "Esmarelda" and "Redemption". At the same time, Kissing Stones shows that McNamara hasn't lost his knack of crafting dance floor grooves, as the title track's electronic rhythm and the dense "Looping" both demonstrate.

Review: Economy is Man Power's second artist album and follows a collaboration last year with Juan McClean as Juan Power. "A Day Seems Wasted When We Don't Meet" starts the album off in a brooding manner, with its booming bass and ghostly melodies unravelling over a skeletal rhythm, and "Jesus Toy" follows in a similar mode with its hollowed out drums and eerie synth lines. On "It Was Only An Orange", robust drums see Man Power draw on his love of disco, allied with woozy synths and ticking percussion. While there are more uptempo tracks here, including the insistent "Tygers", the real strength of Economy lies in Man Power's ability to craft teased out, atmospheric chuggers like "Boneyard".

Review: This is DIY 1990's second release on Man Power's Me Me Me sub-label and sees this emerging artist draw on a range of underground influences. There's the title track's electronic pulses and raw break beats, while on "Vita", DIY 1990 opts for a synth-heavy, Italo Disco track with its warm hooks and dubbed out claps pushing the arrangement into a blissed out direction. "Apolo" also mines melodic influences, but on this occasion against the back drop of a niggling acid line, while "Obsolencia Programada" is a raw electro affair, led by steely 808s and dubbed out percussion.

Review: A DJ for the past decade, including a residency at Manchester's renowned HomoElectric party, Gina Breeze is now translating her skills behind the decks to production. Issued on Man Power's label, this release starts with the title track's trippy, groove. Peppered with vocal snippets and infectious hooks, it's an alluring electronic disco affair. Gina goes deeper on "Freak"; recruiting Ted Rogers to do vocals, she combines a warbling bass and tight claps to create a hypnotic underground house track. The label has tapped two remixers; Schmutz turns the title track into an ominous, churning chord techno workout, while Stevie R pushes in a radically different direction with a low-slung disco remake.

Review: Clearly inspired by US house and techno, Irish pair Schmutz drop a fine dance floor EP. "Leipzig Push", with its shuffling drums, booming bass and outer-spaces tones, sounds inspired by the like of Shake and Theo Parrish. On "Underwater Yoga", the bass is to the fore again, with a menacing low end supporting UR-style melodies and a series of epic break downs. Meanwhile, "Sweep" is more ominous as Schmutz combine a menacing low end with frosty synth shards. The label has tapped Bryan Kessler to remix "Yoga", and the German artist drops a stripped back, drum-heavy take that's tailored for long mixes.

Review: Bryan Kessler goes all drums in for a release not to be overlooked in the annual 'best of' lists that go around this time of year. And we'll be the first to say, don't sleep! Rough Club Poetry is Bryan Kessler's way of throwing down a new dialogue at this generation's ravers, dropping drum tracks as raw Steve Poindexter, Mike Dunn and those Disco Nihilist cuts from Running Back. Find the hits in "All Drums In" - a banging electro-acoustic number - to the roof raising "My Snare Is A Weapon" and percussion assault that is "Time To Upgrade Your Mind". With streaks of post punk, 80s new wave and vogue threaded through the rest of the LP too, it's "You Ain't Tired" that'll slap you round most.

Review: The mysterious Vyvyan (whose true identity is a closely guarded secret) returns to Man Power's Me Me Me label with this four-track EP. Opener 'Voices In Time' comes on like a cross between minimal and mid-00s electro house, while a more percussive and in-your-face remix from Elliot Adamson closes out the EP on a driving, acid-flecked note. In-between you'll find loopy tech-houser 'What They Do' with its hip-house vocal and incessant, rough-edged bass throb, and 'Tableau', which treads similar ground to 'Voices In Time'. All told, the EP's four jagged, energetic cuts defy easy categorisation, and as such could work on quite a range of dancefloors.

Review: Next up on Me Me Me is label owner Man Power with a riotous release. It starts off with the pulsating "Night War", which fuses dramatic stabs with a solid, pulsating electronic groove. On "1011", Man Power opts for a more grimy approach, with a scuffled rhythm and staccato beats underpinning churning chords. Meanwhile "Sweet Cornelius" sees him deliver a more stripped back take on this track, with noisy bleeps and rickety drums prevailing. On "Night War", he opts for a more upbeat approach, as wild electronic stabs unfold over a pumping groove and incessant snare rolls. Rounding off the release, Zombies in Miami delivers a tough, acid-heavy take on "War".

Review: Having previously released on Lobster Theremin, DIY 1990 now make an appearance on Man Power's Me Me Me imprint. "La Ruta Natural" is an intense slice of pulsating techno, led by wild acid squelches and a blistering rhythm. On "Secuenciias Y Substancias", DIY 1990 also drops gurgling 303 lines that recall Hardlfoor at their peak over steely drums and percussion. In contrast, "Reinicio" is far deeper and more mournful, as ethereal melodies swirl in over rolling back beats. There are also radio edits of "La Ruta Natural" and "Secuenciias Y Substancias", with both alternative versions focused on causing maximum dance floor impact.

Review: The latest volume in Me Me Me's "Now Now Now" series - the fifth in total - comes from Lee "Last Waltz" Forster and Oli "Traela" Warriner's Forriner project, which debuted on Man Power's imprint two years ago. They begin in fine fashion via the weighty, arpeggio-style bass, layered percussion and horror soundtrack chic of "Rum Chata", before channeling the spirit of Manchester proto-house heroes and Latin music obsessives T-Coy on the bright-and-breezy throb-job "Pale Blue Dot". "David Peckham" is a fine chunk of tropical-tinged nu-disco/house fusion, while the Club Tularosa remix of "Rum Chata" is a dark, percussion-laden sprint through peak-time dark room dynamics.

Review: For the third installment in Me Me Me's Now Now Now series, they have tapped Italian A7S for a collection of wicked tracks. Alex Scarica is a Parma-based DJ and producer, who is also a resident at the club Red in his hometown - which is inside of a deconsecrated church. He debuted on Abstract Theory Records out of Bologna earlier in the year and if this release proves anything - he's certainly rising up the ranks. From the darkly low slung groove of "Gardeniod", to the slinky and hypnotic journey of "Mach Picchu" which calls to mind the sounds of fellow countrymen on Life & Death, to the deeply emotive bounce of "Elements" which comes with a handy radio edit - this is hot!

Review: Publicity-shy man or woman of mystery Vyvyan won plenty of plaudits for 2018 debut EP "Source Me", a suitably sleazy mish-mash of dancefloor-centric tropes that propelled the shadowy artist towards rising star status. The good news is that this follow-up for Me Me Me is just as good. "Coat Bra Pants" is a quirky affair, with the producer wrapping saucer-eyed rave style riffs and mind-mangling electronics around a bombastic, sub-heavy bassline and sweaty, loose-limbed drums. The accompanying remixes are suitably strong, too. The star of the show is Running Back boss Gerd Janson, who first serves up a bouncy, turn-of-the-90s style ravey house "Remix" before laying down a "Cosmic Dub" that re-imagines the track as a wayward dub disco epic.

Review: Man Power (AKA long-serving DJ/producer Geoff Kirkwood) has gone to great lengths to play down the significance of this sophomore set, even going so far as to slap the words "This is not an album" on the front cover. However you want to describe it, "Now Now Now 1" is a quality collection of cuts. Beginning with the atmospheric, bleep sporting mid-tempo throb of "Ghost", Kirkwood serves up an analogue rich selection of club-ready cuts that cannily meld elements of Italo-disco, freestyle, acid jack, tribal workouts (see percussive standout "Murder Depot"), big room humdingers (the piano-sporting, acid-flecked brilliance of "Bullwinkle") and hazy European tech-house (the horror-fired hum of "Simplex").
