MIDI Funk

Inspired by the distinctive floating sandwich artwork of the Big Apple’s bodegas, the desire to create an updated version of the old timey sampler and our grumbling stomachs (it was almost lunchtime), we asked our current Minties—who call Vancouver, Halifax, and anywhere in between home—to share their favourite songs with us. After that, they nominated their friends to contribute tracks. Together they share the back pages of this here J-card on the first cassette Mint Records has released since Pansy Division’s Wish I’d Taken Pictures in 1996!

With plenty of flavours from across the country to choose, we let our roster be the tastemakers and picked up some savoury sounds in the process from Tough Age, Renny Wilson, Monomyth, Jay Arner, Kellarissa, Pick A Piper, and more! Many of these songs are previously unreleased and all are delicious! Photographed and coordinated by our transcontinental label manager, Shena Yoshida, and mastered by our very own Jay Arner, Hot Heros is a sonic smorgasbord for your aural appetite.

Heaven For Real - Hard Done By

here comes every wish you made
raining back down
white streamers hanging from a black sheet
with holes cut out

found me, found me outside

how can i trust something, with no sense of the beginning?

calm us down

the stars lead nowhere
but it don't matter 

stay still, stay still, look up
those things, those things, above

how can I trust something, with no sense of the beginning?

so far out

the stars lead nowhere, but it don't matter

what is there to link to? I could never connect those dots

or navigate
