ARCHIV 020: MANUK - QUARANTINE EDITION by Avant Garten published on 2020-05-02T07:40:01Z Manuel Belgrano, Manuk, was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1982 and is now based between London, UK, and Mallorca, Spain. As a kid, he started playing guitar and receiving musical training at the local conservatory until the age of 14. He then took a jazz focused formation after high school. Following this he played in rock bands until the age of 26, which gave him the chance to perform all over Argentina and to tour Uruguay and Brazil eventually. Searching for cross-genre music since the late 90’s/early 00’s, when he's got his first pair of turntables, has definitely helped to craft his sound which incorporates elements from various styles and genres. His studio experience as a producer started right after that when he discovered the possibility to record multitrack sessions in portastudios and later in computers. So he started to experiment with it. This experimentation lead into his interest in sound creation/processing/modulation and hardware manipulation which he has kept exploring until the present, and has allowed him to release records in labels such as: EYA Records, SUR, Trichome, Lonewolf and In Therapy among others. Having visited Europe a couple of times since 2008, he moved to London in 2012. This gave him the opportunity to perform across Europe at clubs such as Fabric London, Club der Visionaere & Hoppetosse, RED 58 and The Lion & Lamb among quite a lot of other “not so respected” venues, basements and warehouses, and in parties such as House of Sound, Half Baked, Cartulis and Checkpoint to name a few.
