Hello again! Duke and I had the honor of performing at, arguably, the city's DOPEST venue on Tuesday September 29th, aurally gracing the Frank Gehry-designed Pritzker Pavilion at Millenium Park from noon until 1 p.m. Awesomeness.

Manic Edithead- Wouldn't It Be Nice and Ambient

Ladies and gentlemen,sometimes circumstances arise that make you veritably shit your pants. I can honestly say that the last month has been exactly that. Introspection, realization, challenge, new opportunities and flat-out mind-blowing situations have been happening to me, and, well, when I need to deal, I drink wine and spin records. So here you go... my answer to a ridiculous month full of highs, lows, love, hope, inward thinking, outward planning and who knows what else. I hope you feel me as much as I do. 1. Luciano- Ninos De Fuera

Saturday April 4th, 2009 marked a momentous occasion for Chicago as the Midwest Burning Man community came together for a night of amazing art, music and good times. The Bad Advice Bears were there in full effect and fellow Bad Advice DJ Duke Shin and I were graced with a primo 1 a.m. slot in the video room. Here's the recording in all it's dirty glory. Enjoy!

Brad- "Hey uh Manic, you wanna play at Smart Bar on whatever day it is that I'm talking about booking you?"* Nate- "Yeah man that would be sweet, what's the deal?"* Brad- "Well, DJ Krush is playing an early show, and I need you as a segue-way in between him and Derrick Carter."* Nate- "... huh. Alright! Nice!"* Brad- "Thanks man, you're the most awesome, professional, courteous and dare I say, handsome person I have ever worked with, ever."* Nate- "No baby, YOU are."* And thus begat this 45 minute mid-tempo-to-Acid-House-banger, easily one of my favorite Manic sets of all time. 1. Kalamari Warriors- Squiddly Mix
*=events may not have happened BAD ADVICE LIVE @ Smart BarFebruary 12, 2008 07:11 PM PST
I am pleased to present the fruits of my labors over the last 7 months, captured live at one of the nation's premier venues alongside one of North America's biggest DJ/producers. This Saturday night closing set was recorded live at Smart Bar after Chicago/San Fran transplant Kaskade on February 2nd 2008 and features 11 brand new tracks that will be released on my record label, Bad Advice Inc. over the next few months. A Few Notes... 1). There was a small recording glitch at 3:40. Sorry. 2). I'll never understand why I can't keep my hands off the echo effect on Pioneer 5,6 and 800 mixers. It's an affliction. A curse. But it's just so fun. Fantastic night with great company. I hope you enjoy the set and the music. NATE MANIC gives you BAD ADVICE... Live @ Smart Bar 1. Cheap As Chimps- Hold My Hand (Bad Advice Inc.)

Podcast SummaryMixes from Chicago's Nate Manic- Downtempo, World Grooves, Deep House, Hi Energy, Tech-House and Techno About NateNate Manic's presence on the Midwest dance scene can be described as nothing less than ubiquitous, with hundreds of appearances at the region's best venues and events over a career spanning 10+ years. Always setting high goals and looking to the future, he continues to be a respected member of Chicago and the Midwest's history with significant contributions to it's dance community. Originally from a small town south of Green Bay WI, Nate first discovered dance music through a year-long exchange program to Germany. Already a child prodigy who learned to play organ at 2, sing at 11 and play guitar at 13, he fell in love with the sound and made it a point to learn as much about this burgeoning culture as possible. Upon return, Nate furthered his musical education through a 4-year, full-tuition music scholarship for voice to UW-Madison. Unfortunately the university environment was not for him and he withdrew from the UW in order to attend the Madison Media Institute and attain an Associates Degree in Music Recording Technology. In 1997, Nate bought his first pair of turntables and started doing regular nights at the Cardinal Dance Club, a mainstay on the Madison WI scene. Nate garnered a fair amount of respect there, showcasing his skills and putting on events with DJ/producers including Robbie Hardkiss, Halo, Sleepy C, Doran and a host of local up-and-comers. In 2000 Nate moved to Chicago, where he took off very quickly on the local scene through performances at Pure's Future Sound of Chicago showcases, Smart Bar, Crobar, Big Wig, Zentra and guestpots all over the Midwest. More invitations came in, with gigs at London's Cross, Hawaii's Sunnlounge, Milwaukee's Summerfest and Pridefest, the notorious Burning Man festival in Nevada and other spots performing with DJs including Ian Pooley, DJ Krush, Derrick Carter, Juan Atkins, Kaskade (whom he's appeared with a solid half dozen times at Smart Bar), Colette, Luke Solomon and others. In 2003 Nate took over as Music Director and promoter at Wicker Park's popular see-and-be-seen lounge Moonshine, where his Thursday night event, Therapy, continued for more than 3 years and played host to the Midwest's top DJ talent. In addition to his very successful Sunday Morning Funk and Soul Brunch there, Nate also came on as an occasional Saturday night resident. Around that same time Nate started doing production work and released his first EP, "Arcade Beats", on Chicago House icon Lego's imprint Poontin Muzik of January of 2007. Today Nate runs Bad Advice Inc., a record label that, simply put, supplies wonderfully upbeat and energetic Electronic Music to the masses through digital download sites including Stompy, Junodownload and DJdownload. He's also been hard at work producing tracks and working with top talent from around the world, including Derrick Carter, James Curd, Tommy Largo, HeavyFeet, 2007 Ministry Of Sound Mix competition winner Tom Simmons aka Cheap as Chimps (who released his debut EP in 2008 on Bad Advice), former Greenskeeper front man Nick Maurer, Gene Farris, Brian Heath, Angel Alanis, Full Phat, Genna Greene and more. He also has a full-time DJ schedule to contend with, both in clubs all over the Midwest and as a member of the Style Matters DJ Collective, which specializes in private events, weddings, art openings, fashion shows and the like. 2009 has thus-far seen some fantastic opportunities arise, with guest spots at both the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art and the amazing, Frank Gehry-designed Pritzker Pavilion in Millenium Park. And Nate's dedication to the underground has still remained strong as he and the Bears have reached minor celebrity status within the regional Burning Man community. Already booked for a headlining slot at Chicago's recent 1,200 person-strong Resonate event and Chicago's best underground monthly the Freakeasy, Nate will be heading up a return trip to the Nevada festival this August for a week-long romp in the dust filled with DJ slots across the playa.
