Biography
After making an initial splash with their much feted remix of JL Henney – Me & My Moog (FINE) in Spring 2005, Cass & Mangan got to work. Their unique take on electronic music has resulted in their remixes and original productions worming their way into the boxes & charts of DJ’s including… Laurent Garnier, Erol Alkan, Sasha, Kiki, Mike Monday, Jo Jo de Freq, Paul Woolford, Tiefschwarz, Rob Da Bank, Annie Mac (Radio 1), Fergie (Radio 1), Lee Burridge, John Digweed, Tim Sheridan, Geddes and simply too many others to mention…
Cass & Mangan are Cass and Tom Mangan. The pair met through the grapevine in 2003 and started cobbling together electronic inventions to play around and about. iknowuknow (WALL OF SOUND) was their first release in 2004 – a glorious piece of early morning vocal wizardry described as ‘…beautiful…’ by Ali Tiefschwarz.
The sound that escapes from this pair is a fusing of two minds; a grungy fizzing mixture of old and new technologies, embracing as much the analogue sounds of yesteryear as the current flavour for digital distortion.
Since their explosive start, the duo have gone from strength to strength, remixing Tiefschwarz (FINE), Daisy Daisy (SUNDAY BEST) & Royksopp (WALL OF SOUND). With the excellent Caper on PLAYTIME and their well lubricated version of I Didn’t Mean To Turn You On for SAW in the US, they’ve rapidly built a reputation as producers of the highest quality. All this and they have still found time to DJ all over the world.
They have already taken their tweaked production sound out to various places of good standing, including: Issst@The Key, NastyDirtySexMusic @ Ministry of Sound, Fabric, Turnmills, Herbal, Product @ Stealth, NightFlight @ On The Rocks, Club Klatka (Warsaw), Sound Bar (Chicago), Yatzi (Oslo) and Weekend (Berlin). It’s busy times ahead for the dynamic dysfunctional duo as they take up their residencies at Tim Sheridan’s weekly Very Very Very Wrong Indeed after-party at Turnmills, and bi-monthly @ Product (Stealth, Nottingham) as well as touring to support their production releases.
