Funerals and Banks? Doesn’t sound very appealing.. but don’t let the name fool you! Mindelixir’s new concept compilation remix album (recompilalbum?), obscurely titled Music for Funerals and Banks, deals the freshness through heavy doses of bass. As what might be described as “Nu Bass”, this compilation digs deep with some of North America’s hottest up and coming talent. The sheer size of it can only be described as “massive”, with originals from names such as Mindelixir, Axiom Crux, Charlie P, and Ghetto Sexuual, and remixes from the likes of Mochipet, Leo123 (half of Dark Party with Eliot Lipp), Splatinum, and quite a few others.
From funky to downright grimey, this compilation takes us on a journey that winds through the towering halls of dubstep past, littered with video game sounds and resonating wobbles. Twenty-one tracks ensure that there’s something for everyone, from spankin’ bangers to groovin’ “headphones” tracks. Mindelixir shot us over a couple exclusives just for you Bwompers, so snag them and make sure to go grab the whole compilation on Beatport.

About Author: Psymbionic
As a part of the upcoming generation of electronic music producers, Psymbionic creates aural experiences that demonstrate the possibility for multi-tempo Bass Music and culture to exist within a range of more divergent influences. Passion and innovation drives this young producer, facilitating his forthcoming and past releases on labels such as Muti Music, MalLabel, and Gravitas Recordings, just to name a few. With this latest project, John Burcham has been moving bodies and turning heads for several years, playing with acts such as Bassnectar, STS9, Beats Antique, ill.Gates, Excision, EOTO, and Tipper. In addition to festival appearances that include Nocturnal, Wakarusa, and Sonic Bloom, Psymbionic demonstrates heavy involvement both on the stage and behind the scenes at electronic showcases such as his local SXSW in Austin, TX. Burcham’s work informs his repertoire with roots in the furthest reaches of the electronic music scene, and grants him a unique perspective on each crowd through the latest developments of the industry. In a live show context, Psymbionic confronts mixes that are limited to the scope of the build and release, avoiding an industry epidemic of drop-monotony that overpowers the flow of music. Burcham seeks to prove that there are more powerful influences in moving a crowd than simple tension, providing an interwoven dynamic that relies on the strength of his blend, rather than the sole force or familiarity of the apex. Psymbionic’s theory of music is a journey that doesn’t visit the same place twice, building excitement for what’s next not because you can anticipate it, but because you’ve never been there before.
