Artist History
Mantis started with hip-hop in 1989-1990 and was quickly drawn to the “true” underground scene (down south). He later spent some time in San Diego, CA and then moved to the DC/Baltimore area. Experiencing the scene in such vast areas across the United States has given him a unique style of mixing a broad spectrum of Break Beats, House, and Trance. |
