7 years ago the Deep Techno track "Mantra" was originally texted and produced by JOIX and from then on marked a special kind of artistic moment whenever it was played by DJ's or during his live sets.

"Mantra" stands for the essence of electronic music and deep passion JOIX always is driven by when he is dancing on raves, playing a liveact or working at his home studio on new tracks.

With this release six artists created their very own interpretation of "Mantra":

1. Køps' Remix uses similar elements of the original track from 2015 and transforms it to a minimalistic Micro Funk tune with nice broken beats and deep basses. 

2. Sori's work doesn't fit in any drawer, for her outstanding interpretation she recorded the vocals based on her own voice and added beautiful melodies and harmonics to it within a great arrangement.

3. The remix of Evosonic radio founder Chris Maico Schmidt brings a happy and groovy mood to the whole EP with lots of instrumental elements such as bongos, guitar or piano and fits perfect to the sets of DJ's who prefer playing House or Tech House tracks.

4. The fluffy interpretation of Huebschmann values the four words "Rhythmus" (rhythm), "Rausch" (rush), "Tiefe" (Deepness), "Liebe" (Love) and is such an enjoyment to listen and move the feets to.

5. Anschein's masterpiece comes with enormous broken drums, massive basses and some surprising house elements and so creates an impressive deep and huge atmosphere.

6. Studiogegner jumps on this EP with a high-energetic Deep Techno tune containing psychedelic elements, refreshing vibes and a british rave feeling in a very uplifting way.

7. Finally JOIX made a new mix of "Mantra" as well, a hypnotic Techno stomper with increasing melodic synth-lines and a powerful bass paired with the original vocals leading to an ethernal space at the end of this EP.
