It´s hard to put a finger on Mentalic. His tracks are fuzzy and hard to grab. Their sound is croaky, abstract and dark yet at the same time saturated with melodic moments corresponding to Mentalic's idea of advanced techno. His exceptional track "Sweet Little Sixteen" on ETUI 010 and his well done "Chapter one: Desperado" on Microtonal are followed by the release of the title track from hisETUI GALAXI 003 "Prague" with remixes by END OF TAPE and Insect O.

The original version takes us on a 10-minute stroll through Prague at night with its maze of tiny streets, across ancient bridges and castle walls only to beam you directly into the stroboscope!

Gunjah & Stachy aka END OF TAPE have an absolute sense of the dancefloor, they twist this track with its functional focus on minimal fiddly sounds. Insect O.´s "late nite dub" twirls itself with an honest take-off through the night. These three carefully arranged soundscapes don´t hide the time and the nocturnal endorphine release! Let´s dance!
