The FSOL Message Board

30th June on Touched Music.

This is excellent news, I listen to MM1 & 3 frequently, I am guessing there will also be a broadcast/steam thing on mixlr as well.

I believe there'll be another Mixlr show, yeah.

Slight delay, now expected in July.

Any update on the date for Mind Maps 4 broadcast/release ?

There will be a 2hr mix on July 28th

Yeah, that's roughly the date I've been given so I'd guess it's that.

Soooooo... Mind Maps 4 preview is 7:30 this Friday on the Touched Mixlr, CD to follow at 8:30. I thought I saw something about MM1 being reissued but that seems to have disappeared or I dreamed it. Dunno. Keep your eyes on Bandcamp, either way, this should be a special one.


List of artists on the promo video:


Among the Touched regulars, there's electro trio Drøn (love their album Comm), Acreationator (Brian's daughter's boyfriend), Autechre (!!), Scanner, and some newer names.... Isolated Gate, Room of Wires, Thierry Gotti. However, I believe we won't have to do as much hunting for a tracklist this time.

Excellent news and a perfect way to kick off my long weekend break from work. So looking forward to it.

Nope you weren't dreaming From yesterday's bandcamp email from Touched Music:

Mind Maps 4 - Promo Vid youtu.be/RohBzu2pIFs

Mind Maps 1 (Gets A Repress For Next Weekend Too)

Could be wrong, but the background pad in that teaser video (behind the acid sounds) sounds very much like this (ffwd to around the last 3 min), perhaps that'll be the Autechre track (or a version of it anyway) :

Given that that 12" was released by Touched, I'd say that's quite a strong likelihood. Sounds like it's a Humanoid remix, too - returning the favour for the sT8818r remix, maybe.

Can confirm that it's that track, although it's a Yage remix.

Great stuff, thanks for investigatorining. (and congrats on getting another track on the compilation )

Did somebody succeeded in hunting the whole MM2 and 3 tracklist? I hate having a single file on my iPod...

If you don't mind having 'untitled' or 'unknown' down a few times, 3 is complete.

50:02 Yage - Unknown
53:14 Heogen - Rectangular Triangles (Yage Alt Remix)
57:33 Riz Maslen - The Lake of The Woods (Yage Remix)
1:02:00 End

The unknown tracks are all originals rather than remixes (I'm guessing Mole Jeek is a Brian thing given that the name doesn't appear anywhere online apart from in reference to this mix). I wouldn't hold out too much hope on them ever getting titles, sadly, as the two untitled pieces from MM1 are yet to be released. There are so many unreleased tracks...


A couple more tracks have been found for MM2, but there are still quite a few missing. A couple of those could just be environments (41 and 51 minutes), as all the mixes do have at least one lengthy, fairly musical ambient stretch between some tracks, but there are still at least three 'full' tracks unidentified.
