"Manuel has just followed this up with an EP titled Equatorial Ultravox, which was recently released via experimental pop label Cascine. The seven songs are lofty and windswept; stadium-sized and dreamy. There are definite nods to electro pop and, largely, just pop production in general. He sees the good in songs by Alexis Jordan and even the recent stuff by Britney. “I love music that is unashamedly uplifting and euphoric, and the best place to find music like that is in the pop charts.”
