Italian DJ/production duo Mind Against releases their new Love Seeking EP today. It features the previously released soulful title track alongside an extended and club mix. Additionally, the EP also includes a climactic remix from the respected German duo Âme. We see this release via DJ Tennis’s Life and Death label. You can even purchase it on both digital and vinyl.
The original ‘Love Seeking’ is cool, crisp, and sonic compared to the typical dark and more pummeling output of Minda Against. But showcasing their ability to produce the opposite shows they are masters of their craft. There is no established sound with a euphoric backdrop. However, it is a full-circle moment that reminds fans of their massive wave of melodic house and techno back in 2013 with their debut release ‘Atlant’.
Âme take ‘Love Seeking’ for a spin with their cinematic remix. Symphonies of luscious pads and a deep, thunderous kick transform the song from an indie dance bop to a theatrical techno escapade. Following the slow-burning psychedelic intro, the track is deconstructed to just the vocal, shining a spotlight on it during the breakdown, and then rebuilds the energy into a massive crescendo.
“This EP is very special to us as it marks our return to our very first label. Since the release of our Atlant EP in 2013, both ourselves and Life and Death have grown our own paths, and it’s a great feeling being back to our very first mothership with an artistic proposal transcending the usual genre boundaries.”
Ming Against, on ‘Love Seeking’
Brothers Alessandro and Federico Fogini hail from Italy but reside in Lisbon at the moment. Known for their emotionally rich sound palette, the formidable duo have made a name for themselves as Mind Against in the global dance music scene. Their signature deep and immersive take on house and techno allows for their masterful “all-night-long” performances. What’s more, they cement their status as a globally in-demand and lauded act in the underground dance music space.
DJ Tennis (aka Manfredi Romano) created Life and Death when minimal, percussive music was dominating the underground. His mission: to resurrect sounds and trends. Romano directs soulful, lively sounds to the foreground alongside his own post-rock influences. Beloved records include ‘Red Axes’, ‘Recondite’, ‘Calita’, ‘Jimi Jules‘, and more. Romano has a decade of experience in the music industry from punk band tour manager to event organizer, artist, label head, and everything in between. It’s no wonder the tastemaker grabbed Mind Against for his label.
