Manimal Vinyl je izdavacka kuca iz Los Andjelesa,osnovana 2006.godine. Objavljuje eksperimentalnu pop,folk,esid rok,elektronsku muziku.Uglavnom su to male skupine izvodjaca,koji medjusobno razmenjuju uloge u bendovima.Veliki fan ove etikete je John Frusciante,koji svira sa nekima od njih ili ih producura. Retko ko od njih ima zvanicni album,sve se uglavnom svodi na singl & EP izdanja..
Hecuba
This LA two-piece do 50's-influenced spook-electro, with sparse keyboards building atmospheres pregnant with dread and desire, while Isabelle Albuquerque croons nightmare-logic lyrics, one minute a victim, the next a femme fatale. Their phenomenal debut LP seamlessly embraces avant-pop, classical/electronic minimalism, and club/dance music transforming it into something captivating, beautiful, and otherworldly strange.Hecuba opens your eyes, literary and emotionally...this uncategorizable band belongs to museums, to happenings, to clubs, and to theaters; it is familiar as the past but takes you into the future
...it sounds like Soft Cell doing Grease...
Rainbow Arabia
Rainbow Arabia marry electro-acoustic dance sounds and world music with the youthful energy of punk using an array of Lebanese synthesizers and drum machines, serpentine guitar lines, live percussion, and Siouxsie-esque vocals that are at times war calls while beautifully spectral at others.The coolest thing about Rainbow Arabia is their ability to create an alternate universe around themselves and their music...their bizarre dream world seems so psychedelic, infectious, and fun that, upon hearing them, you instantly want to be part of their gang. I kinda imagine this will be our soundtrack shortly after all the cities are destroyed in the apocalypse, and we’re nomads wandering the deserts of the world.
