Despite the pandemic, NotLö is having the best year ever.
Although barely any shows have been able to happen, Alex Mantekas has been on half of them. Thanks to a number of high-profile originals, remixes, and collabs with acts like Sky Suite and VEIL, and releases on Wakaan, NotLö has made herself one of the hottest artists in the bass scene. She’s landed on Bonnaroo, CloZee’s Wyoming mini-fest, and Sound Haven just today. Seems like a new club or festival event is added every week for her, and they’re not slowing down.
Now the release of her brand new EP this week is sure to send her into the stratosphere. NotLö official joins the Deep, Dark & Dangerous family this week with the release of her Speakeasy EP. It’s got five bruising tracks, and today we debut “Limits.” This is the only time you’re going to find the word ‘limits’ within a five-city block radius of Mantekas.
This song has a driving groove, an evil vibe, and fits right in on the DDD roster. Though she doesn’t need it, this EP is going to give NotLö an even bigger lift heading into the summer.
