ABOUT//

Intelligent Manners
(Influenza Media, Liquid Brilliants, All Street, Golden Orb, Respect)
Saint-Petersburg/Russia

Intelligent Manners aka Dmitriy Sabekiya, breaking drum and bass producer, hails from Saint Petersburg in Russia. Although his first acquaintance with drum & bass music dates back to 1996, it was not until the turn of the millennium when Intelligent Manners started devoting much time to learning how to compose drum & bass tracks. And few years later, his first tunes were played by DJ Gvozd on popular Russian drum & bass radio show “Pirate Station”.

In late 2007, Gvozd’s label Respect Records released Intelligent Manners’ debut “Praise The Lord” as part of “Saint Petersburg drum & bass compilation – Respect 6”. With a follow-up release (“Do It Now!” / “I Lost You Baby”) in the spring of 2008 on Russian digital label Liquid Brilliants Records, and more airplay on established UK radio stations such as the Liquid Mondays@KOOL FM and Chrissy Chris@1XTRA, Intelligent Manners continues to receive support from the drum & bass scene.

Watch out for a number of forthcoming releases signed on imprints such as Influenza Media (BEL), Golden Orb Records (AUS), as well as All Street Recordings (BRA). Smooth!

Forthcoming releases:
“Baby, I’m Falling Too” – Influenza Media 12′
“Music Take Your Mind” – All Street Recordings – ASTRDIG002 – 2008
“Feeling Hot” – Golden Orb Records
“Showtime” – Golden Orb Records
“On The Dancefloor” – Liquid Brilliants Records
