Manu Propria - a Latin phrase meaning "with one's own hand" - is the name of the adventurous project from proficient sample-based producer Dday One. The term also signifies the hand-crafted nature of the album's compositions, meticulously assembled using nothing but vinyl records, a turntable, and a hardware sampler. The process emphasized human touch, intention, and an application of experience, not unlike other manual arts like assemblage or painting. The result is Manu Propria, a collection of 10 deftly constructed tracks layered with beats, soundscapes, and musical snatches from distant sources.
