DANISH-FILIPINO DJ and producer Manda Moor is set to light up dancefloors this summer with her signature blend of funk-laced house and tribal, hypnotic grooves.
As co-founder of the record label, Mood Child, alongside French electronic maestro Sirus Hood, Manda has carved out her own space in the dance music sphere with the raw energy and deep soul you can hear in her music.
Mood Child as a label celebrates rhythm, unity, and pure, unfiltered dancefloor euphoria.
She has compiled an exclusive playlist for us which brings together some of the most infectious cuts from the Mood Child back catalogue. All of these tracks pulse with groove, bounce with bass and never fail to move a crowd.
Watch Them Come Roy Davis Jr. featuring Peven Everett
Also be sure to check out Manda’s new remix of Roy Davis Jr’s Men From The Nile classic, Watch Them Come – a sun-drenched, feel-good rework. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia and forward-thinking house, and a testament to Manda’s evolving artistry.
Pakit Ban – Marian, Freenzy
This track is definitely a Mood Child anthem made by 2 very talented Brazilian artists, who are some of the most prolific producers on the label. It’s funky, has driving percussions, the famous ‘Pakit Ban vocal’ on repeat and an addictive synth. I remember playing it for the first time in Ibiza at the Paradise opening after party in 2023, then it became the tune of summer 2024 and is still very much played by the greatest names of the scene such as Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati and Luciano to name a few.
Just A Feeling – Nick Curly
I have always been a fan of Nick Curly and to have his music on Mood Child feels surreal. This track is a groovy gem that has a unique and powerful build-up, with his signature rhythms imprinted in it. I’m very fond of this one and I love to play it.

Believe – Reboot, Sirus Hood
Absolutely obsessed with the groove on this tune made by German maestro Reboot and Mood Child co-founder Sirus Hood. To me it represents optimum class and quality, I’m in love with the bassline that feels like purrs of a cat.

El Peligro (Ibiza Mix) – Manda Moor, Trangaz
This one is special to me because it’s my first release on the label. I made it in Ibiza during Covid times, in collaboration with my good friend Trangaz. It’s bumping, and I really like the blend of the melodic elements like the piano with the raw analog sounds of the low ends.

Lower Level – DJ Sneak
Mood Child has been blessed with the mastery of the Chicago House legend DJ Sneak. It’s a true honor to have him on the label, he is one of the true pioneers of electronic music. This track is released on ‘Gangsta Moods’, it showcases Sneak’s signature gangster side that I love.

Ritmo Bonito – Yaya
Loving this minimal funky tune by Yaya from Italy, the chords and the fast groove are addictive. This track has been released on ‘Fonky Moods’, it’s the perfect mood for it.

Boothy (Manda Moor Spicy Remix) – Sirus Hood, Trangaz
This is a remix I made for Sirus Hood & Trangaz’s track called ‘Boothy’. It’s such a fun track to me, the vocal by Trangaz is playful and talks about the shenanigans in a DJ booth.
Wabi Sabi – Manda Moor, Malikk
This is a collaboration I did with my good friend Malikk from France who is one of Mood Child OGs. It’s a hot banger with spicy percussions, I love playing it in my sets.

Bubble And Vibe – Malikk
Speaking of Malikk, this is my favorite track from him, it’s part of his album released on the label. I play it at almost every set, the groove and the drum patterns are out of this world.

Gostosa (Ft Bella) – Rayzir
Been playing this one from Rayzir a lot, it’s hot and captivating. I knew I wanted to sign it when I played it it Ibiza at an after party and everyone went nuts. The drums are also perfect to loop and to add on another track that is missing some.
