Wulfcast Super Mix - My Resume

We check in with one of our resident Wulfies, Chris Mindel: back once again for Wulfcast 088. Chris usually sticks to his house music roots, from his uplifting housey sets to his progressive and vibey original productions. Which exactly sums up his last Wulfcast 075. But in this case, his Mindel Monster persona allows him to explore his techno side. With influences from Detroit to Amsterdam, and back through to the Desert. Sounds from Drumcode, Octopus Records, Jaw Dropping Records, Wulfpack and Shadow Wulf.

Chris Loves to take advantage of the Wulfcast's no time restrictions policy. The Mindel Monster set checks in at 3:49. His Wulfcast 075 was 4:44. If you have 8.5 hours to spare, you should take the full ride and play 075 followed by 088. Perfect Scenarios include: Waiting in line for the Burn, building a stage, working on an art project, a flight over the ocean, at your house party that doesn't have decks, an entire day at the beach, a cross country road trip, or just cause you trust us.

Wulfcast 088 - Mindel Monster

A short mix of original music from Chris Mindel.

Chris Mindel - Originals Shorty mix

A mix of a lot of my favorite tracks from the fall season. Music acquired before attending my first Electric Daisy Carnival, but mixed after. A collection of tunes from a number of my friends and peers, as well as songs from major inspirations that I had the pleasure of seeing live this fall and at EDC especially. And of course a few of my originals.

Fall 2021 Mix : Before Daisies

Our Apartment has Garage (Pisces Season Bass Business)

I curated this mix as a wedding anniversary gift to my wife, my Dream Creature. It is a Love Story in house music form. I admit I am biased, but this is definitely my favorite mix I have ever recorded! As often happens, I didn't fit the songs together by the vocals, but I put it together musically, with the aid of my guides. Low and behold, the vocals tell a most wonderful story unique to our journey. I hope you take the time to delve into this, it is pure and true and from the heart.

A set I recorded on New Years Day 2023 to set the pace for the year through music with Love being the resounding theme.

Love Music. January 1st, 2023

All of my studio recordings are stories. From a place and time in my life, with a messages (or several). This is from the tail end of March 2023, after reflecting on another brilliant Pisces Season campaign. Had to bring in Felix Mindelson to tell it correctly.

Pisces Reflection: Therapy With Felix

A set inspired by the adventures of summer 2023. From Teleport Art Car Festival to Soul2Soul, Cali, to Kentucky, Indiana from a La Honda Tribe Wedding, and back back to Cali Cali

Music Savages Burning Man 2023

I had a number of sudden unexpected major shifts unfold in my life at the beginning of 2024. The most pure and honest and sincere way I can explain things, is through my music. It is the best antidepressant around, the strongest form of therapy, for me. So thank you for checking out this mix, listening to what I have to say, and feeling the emotions of the Necessary Shift.

Mini Mix - I Only Want To Be. With You EP

A mix recorded from Chris Mindel's favorite songs from the summer and early fall. Influenced by a European adventure and Home on the Playa.

This mix is inspired by my recent travels. It is derived from parts of our Disco Aliens Daytime Deep Dub Tech Set from Thunderbird as well as my 3 am Techno Set from the TripCurrent Stage at Youtopia.  A slight shift from my usual "Elektrolyte" vibe, I hope you enjoy this techier side of my sound.

Exploring a slightly darker more aggressive side compared to his usual uplifting and driving housey techno, this mix evokes one of Chris' favorite alter ego's, the Mindel Monster.

What can I say about this mix that I have poured my heart and soul into? "Your ears are safe with me". Instead of finding the latest bangers, or fitting myself into some deep desert tech that I rarely play, I decided to take this opportunity to really dive into what House Music means to me. What House Music makes me feel, and what I hope it makes you feel too. This is the type of soulful, uplifting groovy House Music that I have all the fondest memories of. House Music that reminds me of a bay front stage or poolside bar in Miami, perched on a pyramid or under a star gate in Detroit, vibes from the heartbeat of Chicago, a Sunday afternoon at Desert Hearts, or a beautiful sunrise on the Playa at Burning Man. The kind of music that inspired me to make this a lifelong mission. Many of the tracks in this mix I have had for years, some I've been playing for over a decade at this point. Others are new and fresh, but all of them fit perfectly together to create this masterpiece, an owed to House Music, my House Music Thesis. And as icing on the cake, I took full advantage of their no time limit format to close out the set with over an hour of originals. For The Love of House Music. Your ears are safe with me. ~Chris Mindel

Wulfcast 075 - Chris Mindel

This mix was recorded in direct response to the COVID-19 pandemic. A mix that expresses the feelings and emotions we are all dealing with during this crisis; from confusion and uncertainty, to chaos and fear, with political and social commentary that speaks truth to power. This mix contains some of my favorite ominous techno feels and will resonate with me forever as a reminder of what we all went through together.

Disco Alien Quarantine 2020

Chris Mindel may very well be a Transformer, after all he does rock the Decepticon logo on his shoulder. As co-founder of the Disco Aliens, he has curated many unique musical personalities over the years, complete with different looks to fit the style. From his origins as DJ Mindizzy (Trance and Progressive), to his mainstay as Elektrolyte (various styles of House Music) and even experimenting with aliases such as Felix Mindelson (Deep House) and Mindel Monster (Techno), he certainly has mastered the art shape shifting. Whether you hear one of his original tunes, or are lucky enough to catch him live, one thing holds true. No matter what sound or style may seem to be present, the driving force behind it is and always has been, Chris Mindel.
