Mind Collide is the minimalist techno enthusiasts dream. Remarkably concise
percussion and sequencer patches are the main choice of the artists throughout
the album. A few of the tracks even border on modern synth pop with watered
down drums and sugary choices of keyboard programming. Nothing really suggest
that this release could ever reach a club dance floor because it never really
gets moving. Each track is so sparse and short on the bass dub sound that is so
favored by DJ's these days that it will probably never reach a club play list.
I think what makes this album seem so out of place is that it doesn't seem
finished. Each track would sound fine if this was a working demo with each
track being about half completed. There is so much more room for musical
diversity and growth in each track but the artists doesn't ever go anywhere
with it. In the end it makes for a rather boring musical endeavor that could
really use more depth.
