Maniquin – I Am Maniquin (Nail Shop)

Welcome to the 2nd installment of London based Nail Shop – A “professional nail care for ladies & gentlemen & independent record label established in 2016” or a label venture operated by guys with a sense of humor since 2016. According to our current state of knowledge none of both options can be completely excluded. But we can exclude is that Nail Shop provides a sound, which isn’t worth to pay a listen to when you are a friend of today’s house music. After their first EP release from Speed Boat with his “Speed Tools” it’s again about classical dance music influences with contemporary sound updates by hitherto unknown artists.
This time it is undiscovered producer Maniquin, who comes up with his debut release reflexively entitled “I Am Maniquin”. An EP that over it’s course of four tracks presents versatile, playful house music riding on a beatmaker wave washing around raw lo-fi grooves, 80’s synthie disco styles and dazed dope jazzin’ sounds. Maniquin’s use of samples and melodic approach brings a certain, overall airiness with a bit of refreshing naivity also combined with some hazy shades of aural weight. That’s house music meant for the floor and additionally equipped with a second level and some kind of smokey laid-back effect. If you like to have your house cheerful but raw you should pay some attention.
