	Opus - Manitoba - Up In Flames
		From the opening cacophony of noise, breached by the heavenly vocals of Dan Snaith, to the absurd yet appropriate fade-out of the last track that spans almost a full minute, this album is a work of beauty.
		The fuzzy scratch of vinyl pervades most tracks, but the ever-present electronic beats and synthesized tones remind the listener what year this music was actually made.
		Coming from the same school of thought as fellow cacophonists The Polyphonic Spree, Manitoba clearly defies the theory that "less is more".

		I was introduced to the music of Luke Doucet when he was filling in for Greg Keelor on the Blue Rodeo American Tour.
		Often, I find that music falls into one of two categories 1) that which has no lyrical value, while the voice is fantastic and 2) that which has awesome, thoughtful lyrics, with a less powerful voice to back them up.
		True, the greatest music combines both categories into a super-breed of music, but that is incredibly rare.

	Manitoba and Four Tet, Gaelic Club - MusicReview - www.smh.com.au
		Manitoba's founder, Canadian Dan Snaith, brought two musicians with him, who rotated between drumkits, glockenspiel and keyboards while he wielded a guitar, melodica or recorder over the programmed elements.
		The vocals were minimal, but the music was layered and bright, with touches of Chemical Brothers' psychedelia driven by the primal joy of twin drumming.
		But Manitoba's exuberance made it clear live instruments make for a far better show, even if Hebden's records achieve sounds and structures that could never be done with traditional instrumentation.

		Following the underground success of his first, experimental-electronic album Start Breaking My Heart, the Dundas, Ont., native (now living in London, England) is currently touring with his band of harmonious hosers in support of his latest opus, the refreshingly blissful and psychedelic Up in Flames.
		It’s funny because, when I started touring for my first album, I was meeting up with a whole new group of people where electronic music was the main part of their record collection.
		They had the “Screw you, I’m going to take a lot of E and listen to this stuff you think is the devil’s music” kind of attitude.

		Twenty-four year-old producer Dan Snaith, aka Manitoba, is no slouch when it comes to facing fears and expectations head on.
		Doing something you love is. Snaith created his sophomore release exactly as he did while living in Toronto and making Manitoba’s first — in a tiny bedroom studio with just enough equipment to sample favourite snatches of both records and himself playing instruments, including guitar, keyboards and glockenspiel.
		This album was way more about being irritated and frustrated by London and how shitty the actual music that I was hearing was, withdrawing into my room, and dancing around until four a.m.

		For one thing, the dude's a mathematician (like, almost a Ph.D or something), and we all know math and music live in the same region of the brain.
		From the ethereal, reverb-heavy vocals of "Crayon" to the dizzyingly huge-sounding drums of "Kid You'll Move Mountains" to the sublime buildups on songs such as "Hendrix KO," Snaith seems to laugh in the face of critics who might criticize him for becoming too commercial.
		Which is not to say a few Manitoba trademarks are not on display.
