Biography

World-renowned drummer/composer, & producer/beatmaker, Myele Manzanza, has proved that he's an artist who continues to dissolve the borders between modern jazz and electronic beat production. Having released three solo albums, and racking up tours and collaborations with Jordan Rakei, Theo Parrish, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Recloose and Amp Fiddler amongst others, NZ born Myele is already developing a strong live presence in his new London base; his quartet has shared stages with the likes of Hiatus Kaiyote, The Bad Plus, Alfa Mist, and drawing packed houses to top venues such as The Jazz Café and Ronnie Scott’s. Tapping into the vibrant scene of his adopted home, Myele now readies his next project on London-based label DeepMatter. 'Crisis & Opportunity' Vol.1 - London features a top tier cast of young London based talent including Ashley Henry (piano), "James Copus (trumpet), George Crowley (tenor saxophone), Benjamin Muralt (bass) and additional contributions from the legendary Mark de Clive-Lowe (synths), with Myele (drums) captaining the ship. The album has received anonymous positive support from BBC 6 Music (Mary Anne Hobbs), BBC London, Jazz FM, WorldWide FM, Complex Magazine, Soho Radio, JazzWise to name few, and caught the attention of Jordan Rakei, Rosie Lowe, China Moses and more.
