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.
