Sander Kleinenberg’s new single ‘M.A.N.I.A.C.’ isn’t a cover version of the ‘Flashdance’ theme song—how awesome would that be?—but it’s definitely got an ‘80s vibe to it. The bassline line pays homage to Giorgio Moroder’s chugging Italo, and the syn-drum fills are clearly inspired by Jan Hammer’s music for ‘Miami Vice’. The groove, meanwhile, is an unusual fusion of progressive house and nu-disco, long on drama and filled with psychoactive effects.

Keep reading to hear the track and check out Kleinenberg’s new top 10 chart, featuring tracks from Stil Vor Talent, Saved Records, Rejected, and more.

It’s a dead simple hook, but it has a way of standing out in a set. No wonder ‘M.A.N.I.A.C.’ is getting played by a diverse list of DJs including Eric Prydz, Dubfire, Sharam, Sasha, and Nick Warren. Following ‘R.Y.A.N.L.’ and ‘T.I.O.N.’, the seven-minute tune is the third single from Kleinenberg’s forthcoming album ‘5K’, out this September on Little Mountain Recordings.
