Thugshop and BlackOut join forces to present music extraordinaire MANO LE TOUGH as he grace his presence on the floors of MDLR as you embark on a journey of musical discovery and waves of rhythmic energy!
A strong believer in DJing as an art form, Mano’s eclecticism, versatility and commitment to challenging himself as a selector have seen him become a regular at clubs like Berghain / Panorama Bar, Trouw (r.i.p.), Robert Johnson, Warung and Output Brooklyn. In 2014 the readers of Resident Advisor voted Mano number 8 in the Resident Advisor top 100 DJs poll. These days, the Irish-born DJ, producer, and label owner is one of the most celebrated names in underground house and techno.
Mano’s eclectic style, which often includes forays into assorted strains of house, techno, disco, new wave, and more, is the direct byproduct of his many long nights in the DJ booth, not to mention his absolute dedication to the craft. When it comes to his own music, Mano is similarly focused. It was in Berlin where his production talents blossomed, and Mano soon began releasing 12-inches for a variety of labels, including Prins Thomas’ Internasjonal, Tensnake’s Mirau, and Ben Watt’s Buzzin’ Fly.
By infusing his dancefloor creations with elements of intimate, heartfelt pop, Mano not only stood out from the crowd—he also caught the ear of Permanent Vacation, who issued his widely lauded debut full-length, Changing Days, in 2013 as well as its follow-up, Trails in 2015. Amidst all of this activity, Mano has also been busy cultivating a label of his own, Maeve. Launched in 2012 with the help of good friends The Drifter and Baikal, Maeve has already established itself as a reliable home for thoughtful, melodic dance music, and the young imprint is increasingly being tapped for festival and club showcases around the globe.
Still, there’s no denying that Mano remains the main attraction, and the last few years have seen him make the proverbial “leap” and become a staple of the international DJ circuit.
Playing alongside Mano Le Tough - Maurice Simon
Armed with a sound that marries deep and melodic house with tough and moody techno, Maurice is a believer that electronic music is an open platform, without limits on who or what it may connect to. His openness to perform DJ sets that embrace diversity across musical styles with house & techno as the connector, is what drives his constant devotion to the craft of DJing today and into the future.
