Release number forty-three is the fourth original release on Manjumasi from label co-founder Mark Slee. ‘Whirligig’ leans hard into the quirky side of the label sound, with bouncy percussion and unhinged melodies slipping and sliding all over the groove. It’s a minimal bohemian affair that lands somewhere between the circus tent and the spaceport.

On remix duty is the legendary producer Daniel Gardner, aka Frivolous, a veritable master of wonky melodic dance music in his own right. It is fair to say that Frivolous has been a serious influence on the sonic sensibility of Manjumasi over more than a decade of both atish and Mark Slee following and absorbing his output. On this release he pushes ‘Whirligig’ further in a classic house direction, with tasty electric piano chord hits, a funky walking bassline and artfully chopped vocal cuts. Perfectly playful and weird Frivolous vibes throughout.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Frivolous’ remix exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
