Tici Taci mastermind Duncan Gray presents sounds from the darkside of the moon

DUNCAN GRAY: SPÆCIAL MIX 44

DJ, Producer and filmmaker from Brighton, UK. Produces wonky acid, moody disco and cosmic chug.

Good times and bass lines ⚡️😎⚡️

Once a peace-loving sound doctor known for fixing frequencies and aligning crooked beats, Mindbender accidentally rewired his own brain while experimenting with an early prototype of a neural groove stimulator. The machine went haywire, turning him from mild-mannered engineer to full-blown audio anarchist.

Since the late ’80s, he’s been engineering floor-melting experiments and mentoring rogue producers through his Mindbender Masterworks lab - turning out a dangerous new generation of sonic saboteurs. Alongside long-time collaborator Högt I Tak, he co-founded When Disco Goes Wrong, a label-turned-underground movement dedicated to the noble art of rhythmic mischief.

His studio is a hybrid operating theatre and time machine, where vintage circuitry meets digital voodoo and every fader has a story. He doesn’t produce tracks so much as summon them - unpredictable hybrids of acid, disco and funk that refuse to behave but somehow make perfect sense at 3 a.m.

Approach with caution: prolonged exposure may cause involuntary grinning, mild transcendence and a lifelong addiction to weird grooves.

The mix & premiere series that feels like Andrew Weatherall, DJ Harvey, Giorgio Moroder & The Hacker spinning all night together.

600+ of the best Indie Dance, Cosmic-Balearic Disco, Italo Trance, New Wave Dance, Deep Acid House & Playa Tech mixes & premieres you can find out there with 👨‍🚀heavy Italo basslines, futuristic vibes, deep melodies, spaced-out disco fun & psychedelic oversoul grooves.

"Equal parts gothic, cosmic, spectral, dark and thrilling, this is the sound of Andrew Weatherall et al at its most widescreen and space faring" fits well if you add stylish Beach sunset, driving HiNRG and emotional Italo Disco vibes to the mix.
