A year after it’s official release, the ‘Spicyal Sound’ track by Ryan Davis keeps on doing some serious damage. After previous massive chart support by the likes of Tiga and Miss Kitten & The Hacker, it’s recently being picked out by Ivan Smagghe for his latest ‘Live At Robert Johnson’ mix cd.

The latest news about this track comes from an unexpected place: Depeche Mode! Check out the playlist for their preshow music and you’ll find… Spicyal Sound!

Manual Music welcomes Sascha Barth on board! This very skilled German artist has already done releases on infamous labels such as Harthouse, Terminal M and Circle Music. On this release Domino and Sunday are straight forward dancefloor gems, without losing their warm cozy feeling.

For those who love the deeper work of artists such as John Tejada this one is a must! Comes with remixes by UES (Resopal Schallware) and Module II (aka Tundra & Commu)!

Already confirmed support by the likes of Hernan Cattaneo, Ryan Davis, Estroe, Harvey McKay, Laurent Garnier, Tyler Stadius, Paul Hazendonk, Jarno, Qbical, Tundra, Commu, Lin, Joe Manish, Glorio Veztacci, Joe Fisher, Roell Sapphire and more!

We’ve hooked up with the STUG boys to organise the season closing party of beachclub De Karavaan last saturday, and as you can see on the vid, it was a blast! Next to STUG residents (Bart van Rijn & Fabio) and Manual residents (Qbical & Paul Hazendonk) we’d invited Eelke Kleijn, Darko Esser, Estroe, Sandeep, Warren Fellow and Terry Toner to play their tunes. Thanks a lot to the Karavaan crew for giving us a change to host three Manual at The Beach parties + this closing party.. We’ll be back in 2010 for sure!
