Release Info:
What is techno if not a powerful conduit for energy? The movement of a sequence, the surge of an effects rush, the respondent reaction in every individual dancer and the moving mass of the crowd as a whole. Whether the frequencies transmit directly into the brain through the intimacy of a headphone reverie, reverberate through the architecture of a space or fill the formless void of the open air, techno’s potency to initiate and stimulate energetic events is profound. This is something Pfirter understands intimately, having spent more than 15 years exploring ways of manipulating the energy on a dancefloor.

Of course, energy is not just about volume and aggression. Tonality, spatial processing and composition can have just as profound an effect as the thump of the kick drum. On his new album Altered States, Pfirter proves that point by zeroing in on the cerebral, psychedelic elements of his craft across 10 incisive tracks. The Argentine producer consciously approached his second album (following 2019’s The Empty Space) with a minimal mindset, using a very focused set of drum machines and synths to achieve a consistency across the record. Captured over a short burst of creativity, it’s the sound of an artist pushing a limited array of tools as far as possible. Despite this concise palette, it’s not an album that repeats itself, but rather an extended trip that flows from one detailed, textured immersion to the next.

The dense, febrile waves of hard-oscillating ripples in ‘A Future In Chaos’ and the sparkling, off-key chimes adorning ‘Yearn’ all speak to Pfirter’s gift for extravagant, surrealist expression within his tracks. ‘Altered States’, by way of contrast, succeeds in its absolute immediacy – a piledriving statement of bleep-driven intent. ‘Boiler’ and ‘Convergence’ land somewhere in between, coiling around kinked rhythmic incantations which still push forwards with precision while offering a different angle from which to approach the dancefloor. Cementing the idea of the whole album as a listening experience, Altered States is bookended by ‘Venus’ and ‘Dissolution’, two minimal exercises in drone-oriented mood setting.

Pfirter understands the role of his music, and his own instincts as a performing artist. It’s crafted to be captivating for DJs as much as the attentive listener. Spanning linear rhythms and broken beats, moments of calm and writhing intensity, Altered States offers a multitude of energetic possibilities in the mix or as a standalone piece of music. Ultimately, it’s a masterful return from a leading light of the contemporary techno scene.

This is MindTrip!

Short Info:

Pushing his sound further into leftfield-leaning horizons and textured atmospheric reliefs, Pfirter highly-anticipated debut long-player 'The Empty Space' finds the Argentinian-born, Barcelona-based producer steering across shape-shifting sonic rapids with poise and panache. Inspired by a fractal of elements including physics, sci-fi and Lovecraftian flicks, amongst many other things, 'The Empty Space' is a record that revolves around the experience of the voyage itself rather than the destination, throbbing with a vital pulse that acutely transcends all categories and genres, as Pfirter adroitly recombines techno's DNA into something truly and definitely his own. From the false quiet of gloomy lakeshores and riverbanks to post-industrial cityscapes, through barren no-go zones and tiny basements packed to the rafters, welcome into Pfirter's personal "empty space".
This is MindTrip!

Tracklist EP:
1. "Procyon" - Pfirter. 2. "Rige" - Pfirter 3. "Procyon (Tensal Remix)" - Pfirter 4. "Closer To The Truth - Pfirter
Info:
MindTrip is pleased to announce the release of the label's 10th EP with 3 strong, synth orientated dancefloor tracks from label boss Pfirter and a remix by Tensal. The frenetic Procyon begins the EP, a dark, atmospheric and intense track. With its driving percussive flow, it's guaranteed to send whoever hears it into a feverish delirium. Up next is Rige, a more subtle and deep track which works a relentless groove alongside colourful metallic textures.
Tensal - also known as Hektor Sandoval and one half of Spanish techno titans Exium - remixes Procyon superbly for the third track of the EP and demonstrates his innate ability to craft interesting and fresh sounding techno. The EP closes with Closer to the Truth, a hypnotic, trippy outing where tension and energy builds relentlessly amid a backdrop of organic anologue hubbub, providing a perfect showcase of Pfirter's trademark sound.
This is MindTrip!

Tracklist EP:
1. "Otras Dimensiones" - Pfirter 2. "Message 1" - Pfirter 3. "Technalog" - Pfirter 4. "Casus Belli" - Pfirter
Info:
Following on from the well received various artists series 'From the Lab to the Club', MindTrip 09 sees the return of label boss, Pfirter, with 4 brand new tracks, which encapsulate MindTrip's musical philosophy perfectly. The sonic soundscape of 'Otras Dimensiones' opens proceedings, layering dark and ambient textures. Tension builds throughout the track and really sets the mood for this record. Anticipation is finally rewarded by the opening bars of 'Message 1'. The apparently laid back, dark bassline gives rise to high frequency colour which serves to make this track a building cauldron of devilry, which is unrelenting in its pursuit of evil. This is Pfirter at his brilliant best and demonstrates his inimitable style flawlessly. The flip side of the EP picks up where the A side left off and opens with 'Technalog'. The dancefloor sounds of this eerie track are perfect for the dankest and grimiest of settings.
The final track, 'Casus Belli' is a driving statement of refusal to compromise. A powerful, dancefloor techno track whose rich analogue sounds blend together deep, fascinating layers and textures, hypnotising the listener as it ebbs and flows. This is MindTrip!

Stroboscopic Artefacts boss took some time off to reinterpret ¨New State Of Consciousness¨. Armed with a dubbed out filtered synth and textured noisy hats, Lucy takes Pfirter´s original analogue recordings into the limits of contemporary production and beyond. Warm Up legend Oscar Mulero put his hands on delivering two different remixes: first, he takes ¨Iteration¨ into a trippy-sci-fi void, while he also provides a deadly version of 'New State Of Consciousness'; both with Mulero´s haunting and mind blowing touch. This new MindTrip package is wrapped up with a tool edit of 'New State Of Consciousness' made by Pfirter.
