The three-track EP features two new MANTi originals and a remix from Greek producer Thodoris Triantafillou
Los Angeles-based Iranian producer and NXT Entertainment founder MANTi, brings her signature raw and melodic sounds to Mexican imprint INNUENDO with her latest EP, Memento. A rising star in the global house and techno scene, MANTi has carved a niche for herself over the past few years following a slew of atmospheric compositions that balance emotional depth and dancefloor energy. With a career spanning releases on renowned labels including Automatik, Zamna, Kiosk ID and Elektrons, and performances at iconic events including Fusion Festival and Kater Blau, her debut on INNUENDO further cements her status as one of the underground’s most exciting talents.
The title track, Memento, is a hypnotic journey that embodies MANTi’s ability to craft immersive soundscapes. Built around a foundation of pulsating basslines and shimmering synth layers, the track captures a sense of introspection and momentum. Haunting melodies weave through a driving rhythm, creating a meditative yet powerful energy that makes Memento a standout peak-time weapon.
The second track, Memories (Original Mix), leans into a more emotive and cinematic vibe. Opening with gentle percusion and ethereal pads, the composition gradually builds into a deeply resonant groove. The intricate interplay of melodies and textures evokes a bittersweet sense of nostalgia, making Memories a track that’s as evocative on the dancefloor as it is in more introspective moments.
Rounding out the EP is the Memories remix by Greek producer Thodoris Triantafillou. Known for his ability to inject soulful depth into his electronic compositions, Triantafillou transforms the original into a dynamic and textured piece. Delivering punchy kicks, throbbing bass and nuanced synth layering, the remix maintains the emotional core of the original while reimagining it for late-night sets.
Touted by DJ Mag and Beatportal as one of most hyped artists of last summer, and with her releases consistently making their way into Beatport’s Best New Melodic House and Techno Charts, Mana Nabati is fast becoming one of the most exciting rising talents on the underground circuit. Crafting a unique and distinctive sound palette through an immersive education in Music Production and Sound Design at Point Blank Music School in LA, MANTi’s sonic journey is characterised by deep, melodic and atmospheric compositions that champion resonant basslines and vibrant synth work; her work gracing leading labels including Zamna, Automatik, Kiosk I.D, Elektrons, Marginalia, LSF21+, Borders of Light, Einmusika, INNUENDO and Akumandra, amongst others.
Purveying an avant-garde sound project, injected with deep musicality and raw, stripped-back minimalism, MANTi has shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the industry over the course of her career, performing alongside the likes of Cirez D, John Digweed, Adriatique, Mathame, Kevin de Vries, Woo York and many more. Making her festival debut at Dreamfields Mexico in 2022, she has since caught the attention of audiences worldwide, leading her to grace the DJ booths of some of the world’s most renowned venues and festivals, including Berlin’s iconic Kater Blau and Germany’s Fusion Festival. Looking forward, with confirmed performances at the likes of BPM and SXM festival in early 2025 and brand new releases already penned for Belongings, Marginalia, Automatik, Atlant and Frau Blau, to name a few, there seems to be no slowing the inexorable drive of MANTi, as she looks to leave her indelible mark on the global house and techno scene.
Founded by EFÍMERO and VAKURI, INNUENDO has become a pivotal platform for innovative electronic music since its inception in Guadalajara. Dedicated to championing the underground scene, the label has gained recognition for curating boundary-pushing tracks that resonate with global audiences.
