It is our distinct and long awaited pleasure to present the debut release from the true NZ legend that is Manuel Bundy. Whether it is touring the World with OMC’s band a la “How Bizarre”, Mark de Clive Lowe’s Six Degrees, holding residency’s up and down the country in only NZ’s deepest clubs, to co-hosting Auckland’s only monthly party to be at, The Turnaround, Manny has truly done it all.
Bundy has contributed beats and scratches to numerous artists’ albums including Nathan Haines’ ‘Shift Left’, Mark de Clive-Lowe’s ‘Six Degrees’, Nuvonesia’s ‘Island of Nuvonesia’, King Kapisi’s “Savage Thoughts”, and Che Fu’s “to Be Spacific”.
Manuel has always remained conscious and true and stands in front of a small group of Pacific NZ artists who can truly claim to have stayed true to the cause and in his case, helped create Pacific hip hop soul music. This is his debut release, on vinyl.
What does your mother call you ?: Manuel Matisi.
Why did you chose your DJ name: Back in ‘88 (I think), I did a gig called The Terrordome with Sam Hill at the Siren in High St Auckland NZ, (later to be called Cause Celebre). We changed our last names to those of famous serial killers, and I ended up with (Ted) Bundy. Home city: Auckland.
How long have you been playing?: Since I was 16 years old. He started djing in 1989 at High St’s De Bretts Hotel as resident til 1993. Then on to a regular Thursday at the Box in 1991 which led to a regular late nite set in the weekend with Rob Salmon in 1992.
In 93 I was invited to the Australian DMC D.J. finals as host dj for the night.
In1995 I started dabbling in production. Worked on various projects . Hooked up with Zane Lowe & Dam Native. Scratched on ‘Horrified One’ and ‘Behold my Kool Style’.
