Press Reviews "From instrumental hip hop to laid-back drum´n bass. Soft tones and electronic music forming a landscape of sound. "This is how 20-year-old Christian Fundin – or DJ Manji, as he prefers to be known – describes his music, which is being played on dance floors all over the world."I try to make music which I'd like to listen to myself, and as luck would have it, it seems as though there are a few other people out there who like to listen to it as well," says DJ Manji modestly. And there are indeed others. A lot of others.FreedomBut as yet no record company has snapped up this young talent."Weeell, it's not all that important. I'm worried I'd lose the freedom to create and develop my own music if someone were to sign me up. A record company might want me to produce the same music all the time, and that's not my thing."So instead of relying on a major label, DJ Manji has had his own records pressed. And not just your average black ones, but blue vinyl. "I reckon they’re just so striking...".In turn, these blue vinyl records have been sent out to clubs all around the world. To San Francisco, Japan and the Netherlands, among other places, where they're played in the clubs and discos by Manji's fellow DJs.
