We all know that Manchester has always been known for it’s capacity
to churn out some of the best music around, and in the electronic
music scene “MUM” is no exception…
Manchester Underground Music, fondly known as MUM, has come a
long way since its launching in January 2009. The label was founded
by Jonathan ‘The Fox’ Waller with the aim of showcasing the hottest
talent, predominantly from his recently adopted home town
Manchester and surrounding areas. Having previously worked with
Rhythm Masters, Dis-funktional, Nocturnal Recordings & 852
Recordings, to name but a few, and working in conjunction with DJs
from the world-renowned Sankeys and Area 51, a wealth of
experience and diverse ideas contributed to the labels rapid rise.
Celebrating their 10th Release with an all-nighter at Area51 next
week (see below), MUM has established itself as a bright and rising
star in the expanse of the tech house sky, bringing with it a host of
talented future stars – Mark Holmes, Curious George & The Agent,
Tempered DJs – all making waves internationally as a strong
collective representing the sound of MUM.
Driven by passion and a love for music, what began as an outlet for
the huge amount of local talent as a platform for international
recognition, has now acquired the opportunity to work with well-
established and respected international DJs & producers (watch this
space!). Working with these established names, as well as the future
heroes with their energy and unbridled enthusiasm, gives the label a
vibrant edge.
MUM intends to continue to deliver uncompromising quality music, as
well as some of the sickest club tours, for which planning is already
underway. In fact, the very first MUM night is set for 11th July 2009
in conjunction with Kaluki at Area 51, Manchester UK.
With several prolific album projects, club tours , vinyl and CD
releases to complement the digital release schedule, plus a few
surprises along the way, MUM is most definitely setting the pace.
Now we could tell you to go check out the new release Rocket
Science from the Tempered Djs & Ellesse which is an absolute corker
of a release, but you’re well advised to check the whole catalogue –
it’s not often we get to say this, but every release is sublime!
