Music Montag: Antoni Maoivvi<\/h3>\n

\"Antoni<\/p>\n

You know you’re onto something when a Google image search leads you to the above picture, an equally bloody hand holding aloft a human heart, a photo of the artist dressed in 1970s undercover cop gear, and this<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Creepy imagery aside, here’s what I was able to find out about Antoni Maiovvi<\/a>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>He’s based in Berlin, but was born in Bristol. His neo-80s synth music bears little relation to the sonic output of either city.<\/p>\n

He’s actually called Anton Maiof, presumably inflecting his alias to sync with Italo heroes like Georgio Moroder.<\/p>\n

Like Moroder comparison, Maiovvi produces driving disco that is cinematic in scope. Check out his track “The Chase part 1″, below, for proof. And this photo:<\/p>\n

\"Fuck<\/p>\n

He has a wicked sense of humour. His twisted blog<\/a> includes tips for students going to university – 1. Pack nothing, 2. Avoid everyone – and A Guide To 21st Century Marketing using the Charles Manson Technique.<\/p>\n

He’s also a favourite of Radio Sp\u00e4tkauf<\/a>, a couple of internationals who produce a podcast about life here in Berlin.<\/p>\n

He is prolific. If his SoundCloud<\/a> is anything to go by, he’s progressing his Maiovvi alias by adding his own vocals to the mix (the resulting “sleazepop” track “My Moon” is a little XX-meets-Trentem\u00f8ller), and producing lolfully exotic jams as Armenian Lover, ambient as Anton Caligula(!) Maiof and more Bristolian bass tracks as Ghettoscraper.<\/p>\n
