RA.159 Manuel Tur

Resident Advisor
Essen's young hope turns in a stellar house set for his week's RA podcast.

Essen's Manuel Tur is the definition of a wunderkind. After starting to listen to electronic music at a young age, he stuck his head into the production game at the ripe age of 16, and hasn't looked back since—releasing records under his own name, Arcade Mode, Blackbird, Jermaine Jones, Tweeq and as part of Knabberbox, Dplay, Ribn and Ufoboys. To put it bluntly, the kid has had a lot of practice in a very short time.

He puts it to good use on his forthcoming debut album for Freerange, 0201, which takes advantage of the LP format by cobbling together a collection of tracks that complement one another beautifully. It's a cliché, but it's most assuredly an album—not a rushed status report of where Tur is at in 2009.

Consider his RA podcast the same. Tur downplays the mix by saying it's simply what he's been digging of late—and what you might be able to expect from his set at the RA by day Sonar party coming up later this week. But we know better. Tur has crafted a beautiful set that takes in deep house, techno and a couple of nice surprises along the way.
