Album Notes & Community Reviews

Completed shortly before the legendary synthesizer pioneer's tragic death from AIDS-related complications, this visionary album propelled electronic dance music into darker, more aggressive territory. 'Mind Warp' abandons the buoyant optimism of his earlier hits for intense, throbbing sequencer lines and dystopian sci-fi themes. It stands as a monumental, deeply influential text in the foundational DNA of high-NRG and techno.
