The Beatles had everyone singing about Jude, ‘Planet of the Apes’ wowed audiences near and far, and ‘The Andy Griffith Show’ whistled its last time. The year was 1968 and while all of that and more was happening, down in Mexico City future Techno House maestro Manuel Medina was entering the world.
While the first note he ever made was likely a wail, sooner than later he found solace in the wonders of sound. Music was everything to him as he took in all he could as a youth in the ‘80s and beyond. As the years went by and CD collections were imported into laptops, he noticed something happening on 21st-century radio; it was repetitive. With that, in 2017, Manuel Medina began composing his own music. In only three years he’s created nine albums, and will add number 10 to the list with his third release of 2020, ‘Frequencies.’
With just himself, a laptop, and a pair of headphones Manuel Medina has created a plethora of music that would’ve taken many of his peers well over a decade to create. He did it in a mere three years. Inspired by everyone and things from Jean Micheal Jarre’s music to the landscapes of the tropics, Manuel Medina lets loose and never ceases to hold back. Creating music that is “harmonious, without frights” has always been his goal. He notes, “I always try to surprise the listener with new well-agreed sounds.”
Well-agreed sounds like those found in “The Ocean,” a song that encapsulates intensity while inspiring all those who hear with its ecological message. Be it that or the jovial melodies found in “Happiness” or the out of this world ways of “Starship,” each track always brings about a revelation in a listener’s mood, body, and mind.
Since 2017 Manuel Medina has had well over 100 monthly listeners via Spotify and in 2019 he started to see movement with CD Baby as people started to really discover and appreciate his take on the Techno realm. Sales have been increasing and fans have been nothing but satisfied with the music they’ve added to their own collections.
With ‘‘Frequencies’ on the way, Manuel Medina has no plans of slowing down. With plans to release at least one new album every year from here on out - the world will know his name when it comes to the Techno realm.
