Antoni Maiovvi is a lone survivor, the last bastion of human existence. He sees this landscape through a visor of green vectors. When he’s not tracking down and killing the beasts that tore his own family limb for limb, decorating the backdoor of his house to his baby daughter’s garden play-frame in a rough coat of crimson, he constructs musical machines out of scrap, composing the synthetic days away until night comes rapping on his door and draws him into the hunt with the scent of a forgotten whore.

The music pumps through his veins; the age old pistons of a speed boat cursing the dead lakes that suck the city into their depths, one building at a time. Super-charged with a beat, the hunters become the hunted. The shotgun is his weapon of choice; their flowering heads his dashboard trophies, their teeth his gum, the double dead consumed by a pall of vitriolic petroleum.

Antoni Maiovvi is not an original italo pioneer as much as people would like to believe it. It is the nom-de-plume for the Hi-NRG work of composer, producer and performer Anton Maiof (Geisha / DTV / Defibrillators / Menschenfleisch). Occasionally joined by powerhouse of style Fortuna for the group Maiovvi & Fortuna, a twin assault of hyper-masculine chaos described by one bewildered audience member as “The Whitehouse of Italo”.

Having just dropped his second album ‘Electro Muscle Cult’ through Seed Records, you can also grabba’ hold of his previously released works via Bleep.com, Beatport and Juno so go play catch-up ASAP.

Antoni’s ‘Arp Tongues In Aspic’ mix is a great example of influences, self produced tracks and current faves sequenced with finesse for your listening pleasure:

Antoni Maiovvi - Arp Tongues In Aspic
Micheal Garrison - The Black Hole
Kano - Another Life
Vitus Von Degen - The Firenze Incident
Dharma - Plastic Doll
Klapto - Mister Game
Lovelock - Love Reaction
Black Devil Disco Club - The Devil In Us
Kraftwerk - Tour de France
Trans X - Living On Video
Antoni Maiovvi - Untitled Instrumental No. 4
Claus V - Mystery Man
Alan Braxe feat. Fred Falke - Rubicon
Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Maximum Black
