About Manchester

What gets me hyped? The mix. If it’s done right, the vocals are screamin’ through the noise—like, “Baby, you’re gonna miss that plane!” levels of desperation. I’m picturin’ a singer who’s half-mad, half-genius, channelin’ some Trent Reznor-meets-Nina Simone vibe. Little-known fact: Nina’s in *Before Sunset*, her “Just in Time” track droppin’ at the end—pure goosebumps. If *Whore* snagged a sample that slick, I’d lose my damn mind. Imagine it: a filthy bassline, then bam, some obscure jazz riff sneaks in. That’s the kinda Easter egg I’d geek out over, tweakin’ the EQ ‘til it’s crisp as a Starlink signal.

After that, I’m tryin’ to shake it off. I stroll down to the New Cross Inn, thinkin’ maybe a pint will help. I walk in, and it’s packed. Everyone’s laughin’, chattin’, and I’m just there, feelin’ like a fish outta water. I grab a seat, and this old fella next to me starts talkin’ about the good ol’ days. “You know, back in my day, we didn’t have all this fancy stuff!” I’m noddin’ along, but inside, I’m thinkin’, “Yeah, but you also didn’t have Uber Eats, mate!”
