"State of Mind (Remixed)" EP available to stream/buy:
Taking a step back, the inventor looked upon his creation with a mixture of pride and awe. Above him towered a clockwork golem with blood of fire and skin of steel, a protector of that which he had ordained worthy of protection. It’s profile displayed the raw strength of the forges from which it had been wrought, actualized by the servos and motors which drove its mighty body forwards in lumbering motion. Atop its head roared a constant blaze, its uncontainable life energy surging forth from any available outlet in a ferocious display of raw vitality. In a contemplative moment, the inventor then looked upon himself, diminutive and weak by comparison to the champion he had created. He thought of its purpose, shedding a momentary tear for those like him who might fall under its wrathful gaze, but then shook his head with renewed resolve. “It must be done” he said to himself, “They have not the STATE OF MIND necessary to rule this world”. Turning his eyes back to the golem, the inventor set his titanic creation forth on its grim path with naught but a single nod.
With a bellowing roar of the blaze within its skull, the golem emerged from the forest of its creation in a moment of stark contrast as it began to take its creators vengeance upon the city that lay before it. It was itself a city of steel and flame, which tore relentlessly at the lands around it in an exploitative & all consuming hunger. Jets of flame shot forth from the golem’s maw as it tread upon the inferior structures beneath it, reducing that built of this hunger to the component parts it so wantonly consumed. As it stood within the inferno, the golem itself began to feel its own gnashing teeth, the heat of the flames slowly stripping its steel skin to the bone. With a final titanic roar the golem reached a point of criticality, exploding in a massive gout of flame and molten shrapnel which leveled all that remained of what had once been the great city. Watching from high within the forest, the inventor nodded his head in a farewell to his creation, assured by it’s ultimate cry that this land was safe once again from those who would do it harm.
STATE OF MIND returns to EATBRAIN with four reimaginings of their past tracks by themselves and others within the harder side of Drum & Bass. Receiving a flip by Italian neurofunk trio IHR is the notorious collab with label boss Jade 'HIGHLANDER', which features the addition of a motive & fluid reece bassline atop the track’s already driving drumbeat for a dancefloor devastating sonic combination. STATE OF MIND themselves present a VIP of GIANT, which smashes forth on massive drums accentuated by simultaneous bass stabs in a titanic sprint beneath detuned tonal sprites. BYPASS is remixed by MOB TACTICS, whom bypass nothing as they push the track into overdrive in a flurry of furious basses, frenetic arpeggios and brief moments of levity provided by snippets of vocals. Closing the EP is the SYNERGY remix of TIME SLIP FT. KRYPTOMEDIC, which rides the MC’s narration upwards in an ever intensifying crescendo towards a distorted realm of metallic basses that rocket out above their electrified companions and an unstoppable drumbeat. In all, the STATE OF MIND REMIXES morph some of the prolific duo’s most powerful track on EATBRAIN into monstrous new forms, setting them up for further dominance on future dancefloors.

If you take drum & bass back to the early days, when its darker waters were only just beginning to emerge from its junglist roots, names like Maztek and BTK were some of the most coveted within listeners’ record collections. And to this day they’ve still been making their mark, with Maztek launching his own 0101 Records imprint, a label which not only saw him release his last studio LP, but also bring through many artists who’ve been helping to shape his DJ sets globally. Similarly, BTK has continued to rise to prominence, having released a plethora of tracks alongside veteran Optiv as well as crossing over into the world of techno through his slick productions.

Press Release
0101_007
This isn’t the first time that Maztek and BTK have brought together their immense skills, having previously released both collaborations and undertaken remixes for each other across the entirety of their careers. Many fans of the pair, who’ve been tracking their progress over the last decade, will be anticipating this next venture from them both. Dropped on Maztek’s own 0101 Records, it sees Maztek’s role of label owner take over and he is now providing a platform for the duo whose journeys have been following similar paths throughout the legendary spheres of drum & bass.
‘Won’t Stop’ has been years in the making, so its progression from dubplate to its long-awaited release will certainly whet the appetites of listeners both old and new. ‘Won’t Stop’ is an anthemic record which shows the roots of Maztek and BTK whilst also taking you into a new world which many newcomers inhabit with their own sounds. This is a sure-fire set driver, the type of track with furious drum patterns and beat relays that bolster any DJ set.
BTK and Maztek take you back to the time where their strain of drum & bass was beginning to take flight, although ‘Won’t Stop’ also moves this into modern day standards and demonstrates why it’s still popular today. It’s another homage to the heritage which Maztek has built, as well as the new age introduced by his label 0101 Records.
