Mina | Expander
There is only one word to describe this music: Mina.§

Berlin's Mina are not a modest band. Their website states that only excellent music journalists are able to describe their music in words. The message is clear: Don't talk or write, just listen and dance. Mina's second album, A to B, released last year, is a fine blend of guitars, disco, and electronics. With a little touch of the Eighties, Expander gathers 13 remixes of songs from this album and some earlier material by soul mates like Rechenzentrum, Neoangin, Schneider TM, and Micha Acher. Normally, I don't like remix albums. albums full of indolent interpretations of slightly-changed songs. Expander is a different story. Maybe it is because Mina's music already is so diverse. The fact is that the remixes seem to form a strange collection of unrelated songs musically, because you can feel a sort of mutual vibe. And that vibe can't be put into word, at least not by me. Expander goes from post-psychedelic Eighties funk (remix by Mina themselves), dilated sick deep house (Rechenzentrum), disco lounge (Erobique), Mina-meet-the-Fall (Sitcom Warriors), Mina-meet-My-Bloody-Valentine (Jablonski-Slin), and vicious pop music (Schneider TM). Expander is unlike Mina, but at the same time very, very Mina.
