So you guys met in Byron Bay, what drew you both together to start writing as AfrikanAmerikan?
Shared Love for minimal Techno and hardware based music production.

Do you have a specific work-flow or method of producing together?
Normally we would just chill in a studio and start jamming until an idea jumped out then we would start building on that.

What-You-Get-EP-Shaz-1400px

Available now on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/release/what-you-get-ep/1164192

Drops at all other outlets on the 25th October

The Manuel Portio return to Ba-Doop delivering an EP on a much darker tip. Although still very much a Deep House EP, some of the sounds draw influences from darker Techno and even ambient Drum & Bass. Considering that one half of The Manuel Portio was involved in Live Drum & Bass act Kamuku, it’s probably not all that surprising. The title track “What You Get” features a dark rolling bass-line and sparse evolving pad sounds. Funk Nose started life under another name. Deep gritty bass-lines and big synth sounds. Passing Hours rounds out the 3 tracker quite nicely.

COMING SOON: Our second release brings the return of The Manuel Portio to Ba-Doop after their successful DeNote Records release. This time they deliver a stunning 2 track EP on a much deeper tip. The Australian duo bring a sense of refinement and depth to these tracks highlighting their versatility and musical influences.
The title track Rusty brings minimal 808 beats encompassed in a dark atmospheric layer with plenty of room for large reverbs and minimal vocals.
Lebedev was named after a Russian Prince (or so he tells us), more chilled deep house vibes on this track with a deep rolling bassline, ambient synth and vocal stabs.
