Hotly-tipped Glasgow duo Manakinz are next up on Jasper James budding imprint Mitchell Street Records with a vigorous three-track dispatch.

Behind the duo is Jaspers father and house music legend, James Harri Harrigan, and venerable selector Affi Koman. Both are steeped in Glasgows rich musical history, with Harri being one of the legendary faces behind Scottish institution Sub Club with its world-renowned flagship residency Subculture, and Affi Koman is known for his lauded Sunday Circus residency.

Established in late 2018, the duos productions have bagged support from a long list of respected artists, including Andrew Weatherall, The Black Madonna, Levon Vincent, Ashley Beadle and Bill Brewster.

A week after I got these tracks, I dropped the A-side Snakehips at a Boiler Room gig and the reaction was amazing. Approval doesnt get much better than spinning it through a road test and Im looking forward to kicking 2020 off with this killer EP. Jasper James

The EP leads with Snakehips a frisky peak-time brew loaded with propellant, tribalised drums and a soulful vocal cut set to stir. On the B side, Yamaha Rumba runs with the headiness, amplifying the atmosphere with a maelstrom of synths and skittering keys, and it hits the spot with the release of a lustful, lascivious female vocal. Partizan completes the package, giving listeners a robust, heavyweight club track.
