about

Anticipation is building for the release of Alex Banks’ third studio album ‘Projections’ in August.

His last single ‘Into the Realm’ was championed by Tom Ravenscroft on BBC Radio 6 Music and crowned a ‘Music from The Near Future’ pick when he filled in for Mary Anne Hobbs in early May. Now Banks’ gifts us with another exhilarating single ‘Recall Mindset’, inspired by memories of dancefloor moments in Berlin.

“The title track refers to being in a ‘recall mindset’, literally recalling how it feels to be in a club. I was imagining what the beat I was making would sound like booming out in a big hall from a Funktion One system. The gritty intro synth was made with the Moog DFAM, put through lots of outboard FX and manipulated to create variation. The main rave stab was the Juno 106 and Prophet 6 layered together and heavily EQ’d with the Neve channel. Later, I compressed it through my Urei 1178 with Big Sky Reverb and Delays being recorded in real time to make it feel big and spacious one moment, and close and intimate the next.” – Alex Banks

The track is a crunchy big-boned techno roller imbued with plenty of Banks’ trademark atmospheric layers to
make it memorable well beyond the first few listens.

A short film accompanies ‘Recall Mindset’ made by Jamie Shaw from Cursor Video. Shaw shoots sections of landscape and re-imagines them into transcendental imagery to match the intensity of the track’s
sonics.
