Jonas Munk . Manual, is a producer from Odense, Denmark specializing in a unique brand of warm, organic music that fuses elements of new and old, electronic and hand-played, analogue and digital. He made his debut 10 years ago with an EP on Hobby Industries, followed by a handful of releases on Morr Music, both as Manual and with Icebreaker International, as well as his band Limp. Later, Munk signed with Californian label Darla and expanded his work into the area of minimalist ambient music while still perfecting the original Manual sound.
While completely unknown in his native Denmark, Munk is considered an influential artist in the circles of dreampop and electronica, touring all over the world, and collaborating, with artists including Ulrich Schnauss, Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins), Auburn Lull and, perhaps more surprisingly, members of Tortoise and Sunburned Hand of the Man. He has also scored a number of documentary films and undertaken production work for other bands and artists. Aside from collaborations, two minimalist ambient albums and a rarities collection from 2007, “Drowned in Light“ is the first Manual album in five years. It is also Manual’s first for Make Mine Music, the pioneering artist-led co-operative label that is also home to releases by Piano Magic, Library Tapes, July Skies and Epic45.
Manual’s style has been described as “one of the most recognisable in electronica“. At the core of this lies an ongoing desire to fuse electronic music with the structures and compositional elements of rock and pop, and an insistence that electronica can be fresh and innovative without flowing with the latest trends. Never have Munk’s unique strategies been more apparent than on his new album “Drowned in Light“, an ambitious work that showcases Munk’s talent for adventurous compositions, his finely-tuned production skills and aptitude for sound-design. On this latest album, drum machine loops and shimmering guitars (electric, acoustic, 12-string and flamenco) are bathed in analogue synth and modular effects, creating a lush, intoxicating sound that looks back to the 1970s and 1980s without a hint of the usual sleek irony or hip retro-revivalism, whilst simultaneously looking forward to a time when boundaries between programmed and played, and synthetic and organic, have become obsolete.
