Michna (born Adrian Michna) is a world traveler,

seeking knowledge at all points along the way. He

has gigged everywhere from Shanghai to Budapest,

and has spent most of his life between the

extremes of NYC and Miami. In return for his

adventuresome spirit, these travels have blessed

him with musical influences in spades.



New York City is the place young Michna cut his

teeth. Whether DJing parties with tapes as a teen

or sneaking in to play with his band at CBGB a few

years later, Adrian found his way as a DJ under

his Egg Foo Young alias, earning him a URB "Next

100" nod in the process. Production gigs for Bonde

do Role and Diplo followed, allowing Michna to put

his deftness at both the drum machine and the

trombone to good use, creating tracks out of dense

blankets of sound and texture.



Apart from the tightly woven musical amalgam of

hip-hop, booty and electro, it's the detailed

process that makes Michna's debut album, Magic

Monday, move. Perhaps the most exciting aspect of

the album is its rich element of musicality; in an

era when hip-hop tracks have devolved into

two-note keyboard loops, songs like "Skunk Walk"

live up to their name with full-bodied funk and

live horns. When Ghostly owner, Sam Valenti IV,

asked Adrian which samples to clear, Adrian

replied, "What samples?"



With its solid backbone of sound collage, Magic

Monday pulls together Michnas variety of

influences to reveal the sound of New York City in

transition. At a time when so many New Yorkers

complain that their fair city has been sanitized

beyond recognition, this is a record that keeps a

nice layer of grit beneath the fingernails. After

all, its the details that matter in the end.
