State Of Mind - Faster Than Light
Posted: Mon Feb 9, 2009 5:00 pm
Two years after the release of their wildly popular debut album “Take Control”, State of Mind are back in force. Their follow up album “Faster than Light” is due for release in March 2009 on their own label SOM Music.

A double CD, it features a full length album on one disc and a limited selection of bonus material on the other. The album is made up of all new studio material, alternate versions of a few select SOM vinyl releases, and a hand-full of the tracks found on the recent “Faster then Light EP’s Part 1 & 2”. It also includes collaborations with the likes of Trei, PNC, Chris.Su and more. Musically it represents a new twist on the State of Mind sound, with more complex beats and music than was found on the previous album.
The first single, Space Surfer, was released in late November via a digital platform only and features an amazing video by Aleks Sakowski.
The second single, City On Fire, features the vocal talents of one of NZ’s favourite rappers, PNC, and is a total change in direction.

This bonus disc includes remixes of some of the album tracks by some of State of Mind’s favorite fellow producers such as Sigma (UK), Mindscape (Hungary), Dose (NZ) and more, plus other bonus State of Mind tracks. The material on this disc will be released as a physical copy only, it will not be available digitally.

Faster Than Light will be released on March 9th via Rhythmethod and DRM.
