DJ Manny has been involved in footwork since he was 10 years old and is an
established member of the TEKLIFE footwork crew out of Chicago. I think
he's now based in Brooklyn.
DJ Rashad (RIP) helped Manny drop his first release "Kush on Deck" in 2010
on TEKLIFE. Paradinas has dabbled around the perimeter of the footwork /
juke universe for years and I'm glad to see Mu release Hypnotize.
