A wonderful celebration of what Mind Field is all about & the story that has evolved over the last 2 years.  These grounding years, deep from within the heart of Berlin have been monumental, but in many ways it's the story of a collective of musical peoples lives told by the music that means something deep and pure to them...

Musicians from around the world united by a common force...  The force to be brave and try new things...  That all powerful magnetic force that keeps drawing you back, providing the only escape or clarity down a path of uncertainty or even feared certainty.  It doesn't matter how you do it...  Find a way to keep living, dreaming & believing...  Make what's inside you & not what you think people want to hear...  Enjoy the ride and the learning along the way... This is why music must evolve with time.

You won't find a group of more pure, open and honest musical dreamers that have that special something - inevitably creating and painting new and magical pictures on the horizon...  Oh, this journey is just getting started!!!

Featuring new and exclusive tracks from artists including:  Evan Viera, Nicholas D, Geoffrey d'Ombrain, David Inexacte, Christian Bachmann, Synteck & Ekkobot...
Plus some of the highlights of Mind Field's last two years of releases including classics like Alex Vax, Splittermusik, Loacs Erepams, DarKantik and more...  Track 3 features vocals from the lovely Lianne Hall.  Also unreleased collabs from Mind Field founder Nicholas D with Ekkobot & Lili Et Klaus.

Best experienced to it's full potential by taking some time out from our unnecessarily hectic lives and simply gazing at something beautiful like a setting sun or a swaying tree in the forest...  Listen from start to finish and experience the journey in your own bubble of emotion - your own mind field...

PREMIERE: Nightdrive- Vostok IDM [KYMA KOMPLEX]

"OpenAI has company... the room full of monkeys has returned with the development of ChimpGPT. Natural language algorithms have been outmatched by natural simian energy."

Brooklyn duo Infinite Monkey Theorem's output matches electronic and instrumental influences to craft music aimed at the dancefloor. There's obvious doffs of the cap to IDM, breakbeat and leftfield club sounds but also elements of shoegaze, free jazz and soundsystem music bubbling up under the surface.

For their new release, ChimpGPT, the pair share five tracks of off-kilter club cuts laced with guitars and hypnotic bass lines. And it's all for a great cause too - they're donating all proceeds from the release to UN Women, the UN organisation who do important work to protect women's rights and end violence against women across the world.

PREMIERE: Infinite Monkey Theorem - Lydia Phreaks

Ulla Records invite Younger Than Me (Avril 2023)

buen clima is the solo project of producer, composer and DJ Felipe Castro (Santiago, 1993). Under that alias, he makes a sometimes clean, sometimes dirty mix of techno, house and electro, among other styles, with a soft spot for high BPMs, big, glossy pad sounds and interlocking rhythms. With a background in classical music and free improvisation, his productions and live performances often bring into them unexpected moments of noise, unusual influences and, above all, humour.

"This EP is comprised of five tracks written between 2020 and 2022, and it's got quite a bit of contrast among them, as well as some common threads. Some are gritty and noisy, some are a bit more amiable. However, they all show signs of recurring obsessions with certain rhythms, certain synth sounds, and share a sense of fun and humour. Each is an exploration of different production and synthesis techniques.

>:) Is a heavier club track, made to go a little evil, a little mischievous. It's full of squelchy sounds and has a drum part that sounds like a never ending Street Fighter combo, or a bunch of beer bottles being opened one after the other.

PREMIERE⚡️buen clima - >:) [Polychrome Audio]

I took the opportunity to mix the more tranquil tracks of my selection. I like tracks that sweep you away with spherical melodies while bass and broken rhythms keep you grounded. My tendency to epic mood changes is showing up here.

Vic D - What are you listening to?

For Michael Anthony Wright, music has always been something to lose himself into. Growing up in Kent, he was forever taking apart the electrical appliances around his house – including enabling his turntable to play in reverse and turning his tape recorder into an ersatz multi-tracker. His adolescence saw him dip his toes into rave culture before finding his calling playing with a range of bands. Later as a student of Sound Design at London’s LCC he’d have his eyes opened to a myriad of techniques and methods – going on to design pieces of his own and perform at The Royal Festival Hall. With this experience adding to his already diverse musical background, the foundation for Wright’s unique artistic identity had been laid – the final spark of inspiration coming when he began attending DJ Fonteyn’s Computer Blue night in East London. Encouraged by seeing people rapturously enjoying a blend of synthesizer heavy dance music, he took his friend Ali Renault's (from synth band Heartbreak) prompt and began working on music of his own – music which soon saw release on a range of labels.

Fast forward some years and Wright has comfortably grown into his own highly distinctive sound using his Brassica alias. Synthesizers play a prominent part, but what’s truly notable is the emotional resonance of each track. Coming at ‘dance’ music from his own personal angle, Wright’s tracks carry none of the throwaway qualities of functional club music – with each offering instead carrying a heavy amount of emotional heft. This has been never more apparent than on his recently released record, ‘Man Is Deaf’. Here Wright lays out a journey rich in detail, texture and personal resonance that also packs a fair few dancefloor moments to boot.

Looking for something a little different from him, we asked Brassica to revert back to making mixtapes as a kid for Hyp 202. Listen to him stitching together The War Of The Worlds with De La Soul and DJ Shadow with aplomb via the player below, then read our in depth chat with him...
