Title: Pretending / Polygraph
Label: Blendits Audio 
Format: Digital 
Releasedate: 03-03-14 
Distribution: Triple Vision

Three months after their first release by Dabs, Hydro, M-Zine & Scepticz, Rotterdam based club night and label 'Blendits' returns with a fresh two tracker. A set of deep, musical sounds produced with clarity, detail and aimed towards the dancefloor!

Kicking off the EP, Lincoln (UK) trio Soligen & Type-2 deliver an obscure piece of drum & bass with 'Pretending'. Expect some twisted basslines and techy drumwork, the overal infusion of light and dark textures create a sonic energy not to be unheared. Mindblowing.

Next up are Mindmapper & Silvahfonk. As DJ's, promoters and labelowners they're at the forefront of the Dutch drum & bass community but also are making waves internationally. 'Polygraph' is a floating, airy piece of music with interesting drum rhythms, a deep sub and clever synth play. Intriguing and unique.

Mindmapper & Silvahfonk - Polygraph - Blendits Audio - OUT NOW!!

Having over 30 releases out there on many different labels, soundaddict Rogier Habraken a.k.a. Mindmapper lost his status as "new-comer" long ago. Thanks to support of many keyfigures within the scene, he has laid down a solid foundation for the future. Backed up by many gigs, residencies and appearances on events, radioshows and festivals in both the Netherlands and abroad. Next to that he's co-owner of Break-Fast Audio, sound designer and mix engineer for Dutch broadcasting and has a curating duty for the online music discovery service 22tracks.com.

Coming from a background of working with bands, playing piano, double bass and electric guitar for many years and building his own studio, Mindmapper has got all the musical skills a producer might want. What started out as recording and arranging songs played by his band, evolved in a serious affection for cutting, sampling and composing electronic music. Combined with his education as an Audio Designer, Mindmapper is a musical mastermind whose style expands way beyond just Drum & Bass. 

It's hard to describe his broad spectrum of productions in few words but one can find all sort of influences ranging from techno to rock and dub to classical. His tunes and collabarations tend to explore the "boundaries" of the genre and have been spotted, not surprisingly, by a broad audience. Support comes from Loxy, Doc Scott, Hazard, Hype, Octane & DLR, D-Kay, Bailey, Fabio, Consequence, Gremlinz, June Miller amongst many others. With material forthcoming on Samurai Music, Dispatch, Eternia Music, Soundium X, Creative Wax and CX, 2013 looks bright.
