X Mind

Bristol-based experimental psych-rock group My Octopus Mind are pleased to reveal their third studio album ‘Trying To Be Normal’, released today, November 3rd 2023, to vinyl via Drongo Records. My Octopus Mind are a high-energy experimental psych-rock four-piece comprised of drums, guitar, vocals and heavily effected double bass. Since their conception in 2017, the band have developed a wild form of experimental rock, taking a tongue in cheek ride through post-punk swagger and dysfunction, wonky riffs, balkan rhythms and moments of haunting grace.

Enigmatic dance-pop project Mono Mind created by Per Gessle is based in Sweden, but features input from collaborators based around the world. Initial single "Sugar Rush" was briefly made available in 2016, but the project made its formal debut with "Save a Place" in 2017. While the group was presented with collage-like portrait graphics and pseudonymous members, the song featured vocals by Helena Josefsson and Roxette's Per Gessle, and publishing information revealed that David Guetta co-wrote the song. Following its release in July of 2017, "Save Me a Place" began picking up airplay, and climbed up the Billboard Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart.

Music For Paradise is a phenomenal album where Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock stamps the EM universe with a new seal for the ambient genre. A meditative environment, as creative as progressive, where relaxation music takes on a whole new meaning. When there is rhythm, it's by slow and intuitive visions. When they are atmospherical phases, they are rich and very enveloping, nourishing each moment with a sonic image which takes the form that we think of. Music For Paradise is the astral door of a fascinating universe which will propels Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock to the firmament of the essential figures of contemporary EM.

This is a live album made up of highlights from various concerts held at a planetarium in Erkrath, Germany. Recording either as Cosmic Hoffmann or Mind Over Matter, Klaus Hoffmann-Hoock recordings always are a great combination of retro Krautrock analog heaven and mind-expanding space music. As the title suggests, this is music of the more floating, spacey variety. Each track runs about ten minutes, allowing just enough time for it to germinate before the next one ensues. The light guitar echoes in A Night in Mogul's Garden perfectly augment the floating synthesizers and distant wailing wordless vocals. Soft percussion appears as layers develop. This is so peaceful and calm. Delicate, bright sequencing carries Mello(w) Kathmandu along, as well as light tribal percussion, flute,and more fine guitar playing…
