Hit-maker Mind Enterprises (aka Andrea Tirone) is back with a new mini-album with new and previously released singles and remixes. The release is a collection of the artist's recent singles including the acclaimed and Shortlist Magazine's top 50 singles of 2017 "Idol", plus "Gemini" and "S.H.A.K.E", which together with current new track "Monogamy" marks the unveiling of an electrifying new sound. Obsessed with vintage synthesizers and '80s beats, Mind Enterprises has created a sound which is somehow both forward thinking and nostalgic at the same time. Think Italo disco meets retro dance, with razor sharp modern production, and you're half-way there. "Monogamy", coupled with its '80s style VHS video is designed to make your feet move and your heart long for simpler times. Its irresistible groove and disjointed vocals are as instant as they are idiosyncratic. Includes remixes by Prins Thomas, Breakbot, and Borussia.

LP in gatefold sleeve with spot varnish; includes CD. Andrea Tirone aka Mind Enterprises follows his 2013 debut EP, My Girl (BEC 5161371), with Idealist, his debut album. Idealist encompasses the electronic sounds of Todd Terje, the disco of West-African inspiration William Onyeabor, and the rhythms of seminal New York post-punks Liquid Liquid. The album was partly inspired by a chance discovery of some music on a hard drive given to Tirone by Liquid Liquid vocalist Salvatore Principato, after the two crossed paths in 2011 when Principato produced an EP for Tirone's previous band. "I was looking for something to inspire me," recalls Tirone. "So I plugged it in and suddenly there were all these amazing sounds."

Italian songwriter and producer Andrea Tirone, the Italian songwriter and producer behind Mind Enterprises, is a perennial outsider. His eccentric and intricate tracks are recorded in darkness; curtains closed and laptop on, "I can't work in light. You focus more on the sound in the dark." As a result of the dream-like state his mind inhabits, his lyrics are more like a mantra, looping and weaving in and out of heavy beats and samples. Includes mp3 download.
