"For Manier, the sawtooth bassline rogue, Industrial Electro comes fast, hard and full of spooky funk. After appearing on both our seminal Tangent 2002: Disco Nouveau compilation and Adult.'s Misery Loves Company collection for Ersatz Audio, Manier releases his debut 12" and the results are stranger than ever. The title cut is a slab of searing electro, peppered with deranged lyrics and compelling personal mythology. Manier's violent funk is both infectious and abrasive, hot and cold. The flipside starts with 'Uncompromised Awareness' a Dada-inspired piece of analog metallic grit, cautiously snaking around Manier's garbage-talk. The plate is concluded by perhaps the most telling revelation of Manier's paranoia, the cyberpunk throwdown, 'I Can't Leave' which is the sound of the walls closing in on our protagonist, all accompanied by a damn catchy beat."
