Podcast Resident Advisor - RA.335 Michael Mayer - 2012.10.29

[Evil_Concussion]

Michael Mayer has just returned from an eight year solo production hiatus to release his second album, Mantasy. Was it worth the wait? "Mantasy is a significant elaboration on the modern Kompakt aesthetic," said RA's Tony Naylor, praising the German producer for an elegant ten track distillation of his long-serving imprint. Opener "Sully" evoked the looped melancholia of the label's Pop Ambient series; "Mantasy" felt like a lost number from the techno-focussed Speicher series; while "Good Times" would have stolen the show on any of the label's 12 previous Total compilations. That his label and new album were so intertwined is no great surprise: along with Jürgen Paape and Wolfgang Voigt, Mayer has spent the past 14 years cultivating one of the most indelible and reliable brands in electronic music.

RA.335 continues in the lineage of his revered trio of Immer mixes, where the narrative was king and "emotive" was the watchword.
