Man Recordings latest release is a very special occasion for the label since it’s the debut album by Man’s own head, Daniel Haaksman. The label is based in Berlin, though starting as an imprint for Baile Funk, nowadays is one of the most important contributors to a contemporary club sound reflecting a hyper-accelerated, globalised world where musical genres melt together until they become indefinable.
Daniel Haaksman is undeniable “Funkeiro Numero Um Da Alemanha” (“Germany´s #1 Funkeiro”, a “funkeiro” is Brazilian slang for Funk follower) and impressively proves this with his debut album, going even one step further. “Rambazamba” might be deeply rooted in the aesthetic of Baile Funk, but takes the Brazilian sound as starting point for a journey into the soundscapes of local music going global all around the world.
And so, Man Recordings proudly present to an unsuspecting public Daniel Haaksman’s first album under his own name, full of the Haaksman trademarks of hypnotic cut-up vocal clips, thundering percussion, exotic horns and Portuguese refrains. “Manda Bala” (go for it) as they say!
Check out the first single from the album at the top of this post, featuring Bani Silva.

“We fell in love with House Music because it’s a very wide and open kind of music, you can put whatever influences in there. If you do it with your own style and with taste it’s a very good thing"
Not ones to slow down, February saw the release of their much anticpated debut album, 'Say What?!', to huge critical acclaim. The duo succeeded where many fail, in bringing together disparate influences ranging from pop, electro, disco, dub, jazz, garage, and swing, and uniting them in a coherent and dynamic album, which has been getting love from all sides of the dance music spectrum.
“The album is like when you listen to a Round Table Knights DJ Mix, there are always some songs from different genres that you wouldn’t expect in an average House DJ Mix, we like these little surprising moments of finding out that something you would never expect fits together very well.”
We can't wait to have them headline the Jackmode & Pelski stage this summer, and we've got a taster for you in their exclusive Gottwood Presents Podcast. With fresh cuts from the likes of Zombie Disco Squad, Soul Clap and Henrik Schwarz, as well as some new stuff of their own, it's a stormer. We caught up the duo for a chat about sampling, beards and Switzerland...
What's been keeping you busy lately?
Touring, we just got back from Australia. It was super nice, our first festival tour there. In the studio we're working on some remixes right now, and there is also some new original material on the way, plus a mix CD.
Tell us a bit about your Gottwood Presents mix...
We put some stuff together which we really like, old and new stuff. Also you can hear a new remix from us which will be out soon...
You have your musical roots in hip hop and turntabalism, what brought on the move towards house music?
It was just a natural progression. We're always looking out for new inspirations. Our love with house music started when we started producing music. It was the best way for us the express ourselves musically and combine all our influences.
Which Hip-Hop artists have influenced you the most?
A Tribe Called Quest, Camp Lo, Gang Starr, Wu-Tang, Common, Beat Junkies, Madlib, Jay Dee.
Your style of music features all kind of samples, and clearly takes in a lot from a variety of genres. Do you listen to obscure music purely to hunt for samples? What's the sampling process like for you?
I don't think I've ever found a good sample when I was actually searching for one. I'm not patient enough to listen to music for hours just to hunt for a sample. Most of our samples are from music we actually also listen to at home.
DJing as a duo must be a lot of fun, but do you ever have the urge to make music individually?
Marc: Of course we do! I play in a Rock Band as well called "Labrador City". We just released our first mini album "Volcano" on our own label "Oh, Sister".
Do you think growing up in Switzerland has had much of an effect on your music?
The environment always has a big effect on what you do. I think the good thing about growing up here was the big range of cultural events happening. Switzerland is so small and it's really easy to travel from city to city to go and see concerts. We also had the chance to do our own events very early in our career. That helped us a lot to get the connections we needed in the music world.
Do you have any tips for growing a good beard...
You have to shape it from time to time!
Your fantastic debut album Say What!? was released earlier this year and has been universally praised. How do you plan to follow it and what have you got in store for the rest of the year?
We're doing some remixes right now. There will be a new EP for sure and we are working on a mix CD.
Exciting stuff, we look forward to it! You've just finished touring Australia where you played some huge gigs, how are you finding your busy schedule?
We love it when we are busy!
If you could put on your dream party, where would it be, who would play and would there be a theme?
Marc: Somewhere at a beach in the summer, with a nice sunrise and Soul Clap playing.
What are your tips for 2011:
Artist(s):Monkey Safari
Label: Delusions Of Grandeur
Club: Club Bonsoir
Blog: www.booooooom.com
And the killer question...If you had to be stranded in the woods, what 5 items could you not leave home without?
Swiss Pocket Knife, Barbour Jacket, Yashica T-4, Gum Boots and a Compass.
Cheers guys, look forward to seeing you at Gottwood!
