black manual: mordendo remixed

Black Manual was formed by Jan St. Werner in 2012, following with Mordendo (2013) which intertwined the dynamics of speaker compositions with Afro-Brazilian sound patterns. Portals Editions present four new distillations of "Mordendo". Cut Hands draws the spirit out of "Mordendo" in his signature glorious ritualistic fashion. James Ginzburg (Bleed Turquoise) of Emptyset, summons the soul and amplifies it with cathartic synth stabs in unison with martial percussive bursts. Africaine 808's Dirk Leyers (Format01) mechanizes the chaos in to a rhythmic spell. Ketev carries the listener off into the great unknown with his amniotic drones and hypnotic inward movements.
