Manisdron is synonymous with Hi Energy. With his solo project, Japanese musician, producer and drummer Takafumi Okada delivers a rebellious, raw sound that sparks and sparkles. The techno-tribal drums played live by Okada with extreme precision move as if they were an organism. They swing upwards on spiked acid synths and are combined with Japanese cyber vocals. Okada's releases on L.I.E.S. demonstrate a love of experimentation, consistency and uncompromisingness. And the whole thing is fun to listen to, by the way.
