mindset celebrate their 15th release with a solid remix ep from djrum & asc. first in a series that will see some of the finest cuts from the mindset back catalogue reworked by the labels favourite producers. the a side shows djrum working his diverse range of influences and intricate production techniques in his epic 11 minute rework of synkros look at yourself from mindset008. on the flip, long time friend of mindset & head of the influential auxilary music label asc slows down the tempo from his usual 170 outings with a techno remix of szares leaning towers of concrete from mindset011

a powerful and unique musical voice from brussels, belgium, goldffinch have launched themselves swiftly to the forefront of their chosen electronic music style with a series of unmissable dancefloor weapons on labels numbers, dirty bird, saigon recordings, airflex labs and audio culture. yoann and gilles, the duo behind goldffinch, have let themselves be inspired by current movements in electronic music and have worked to redefine it in their own unique way. one of their trademarks is stuttering vocal samples worked indecipherably into their own groove, a skill built from their formative years listening to hip hop.

brand new from mindset records, biome steps up with a surprising release considering his strong affiliation with the dungeon step sound, here we see him unleash 3 techno influenced tracks on indigos manchester based label, a new angle for biome and on the strength of this release i’m sure well see many more productions from him on this tip.

continuing in a strong and revitalised form that has seen widespread recognition for releases from synkro, troy gunner, szare and stickman, mindset records return with a debut 12 inch for longtime friend of the label, elsewhere. hailing from the same rural locale as sometime production partner stickman, elsewheres infinitely technical productions bear the hallmarks of a studio obsessive, with production values of a higher level helping to deliver three tracks of a unique quality. with productions informed partly by seminal trips to london to stand in front of dmz soundsytems, elsewhere reworks the dystopian dread and power of that sound into something entirely new, with lead track trippin already finding its way into the record bags of akkord, lone, troy gunner and more. bott bott displays intense dynamics with a smartly deployed vocal and a ruthless subbass underpinning a ferocious uk funky influenced drumtrack whilst the espers comes with alternating slices of rude ukg swagger and some subtle atmospheric work.

anonymous production unit szare return with three fresh cuts for manchesters mindset records. critically acclaimed releases for the equally shadowy horizontal ground imprint, bristols idle hands and the berlin based krill music amongst others have seen szare embed themselves firmly in the techno landscape, finding a receptive audience for their unique blend of bass heavy, tribal dissonance or in their own words, sounds that are eerie, lazy and chewy.

nice price deal !!! manchesters mindset records celebrates its tenth release, giving a debut 12 inch to rising young producer stickman to continue a strong tradition of breaking new talent to the world. with a well respected and much loved back catalogue providing a solid foundation to build upon, mindset again eschew the more conventional option of relying upon big names to sell records. debut releases on the label for xxxy, narcossist (now kowton), hatti vatti and label owner indigo himself have all propelled each artist to their respective standings today and mindset 010 looks set to do the same for stickman.

following on from 008, synkros >look at yourself< ep, mindset are proud to introduce yet another debut 12 inch for newcomer troy gunner. a young producer from the outskirts of bath uk, still in his teenage years and has a keen ear and rich palette of sounds which he works from. all field recorded and implemented into his work, creating pure textures and a unique sonic collage. what stands out for us are his unique infectious melodies and vocal manipulation.
troy has gained support from biome, bunzer0 (sub.fm), compound one, dark sky, dfrnt, kingthing, george fitzgerald, gill mills (radio 1/nme), ifan daffyd, indigo, june miller, sepalcure, synkro, versa & whistla (l2s).

3 deep dubstep cuts, flirting with dub techno. made by xxxy aka forensix mcr for mindset.

canadian producer hxdb aka hexadecibel gives his debut on release #006 by ever growing mindset label. soulful stuff!

fabulous new plate from manchesters mindset crew. indigo has been piling in this year, and fading numbers amongst his best yet post garagedub, future step, soon as you name it the tune takes another canny swerve away from your attempt and emerges just sounding all sprightly and ready for a new round on the floor. for the flip newcomer hatti vatti with sara brylewska on vocal duties indeed live up to the billing of different music - a wicked mid paced rhythm topped with a torchy vocal which may remind older listeners of martina topley bird somewhat, all brimming with edged rimshots and delirious body quakes, senstively machined soul music for the autumn - highly recommended!!

the 1st mindset release by non other than mighty indigo!!

the mighty synkro is back, this time on the techy mindset label, these guys been getting a lot of support for their new label with numbers one and two both selling out rapidly!! label head honcho indigo also on this mighty 12inch!!
