Born in the late 70s and grown up in the pre techno era Manu Alian´s musical roots range from rock over punk to hip hop. After singing in several bands he started producing electronic music in 2000. His hometown Cologne can be called the unofficial techno capital of Germany as it offers a quite dense and multi-faceted musicians and producers scene. All of these influences can be found in Manu´s tracks and he wanders between the genres with ease and elegance.
