To Grieve marked MANOID’s striking debut on hafendisko in 2017.
Emerging from the edge of one of Europe’s last remaining primeval forests and now based in Warsaw, MANOID crafts electronica and techno charged with tension and emotional clarity. While shaping his debut album, he’s also been refining his identity through immersive live sets.
The title track opens a window into his sonic world, arpeggiated synths drifting through mist and melancholy. It’s evocative, slow-burning, and unmistakably forest techno.
Sid Le Rock’s Grievance Mix condenses the track into a bubbling, focused groove, while Pysh leans into the rhythmic pulse, keeping its emotional weight intact.
The release also comes with a video directed by Pat Dudek, a visual meditation on love, loss, and the spaces heartbreak leaves behind.
