...of Belgian-Portuguese producer Mind Distortion System (Nelson Jara Dos Santos).
Now, after a series of releases on various compilations, MDS' full length debut album, 'He Claims to be Not Human, ' invites listeners on a
liquid, electric and supremely psychedelic journey: a trip modulated by groovy basslines, bouncing and twisted effects, dynamic rhythms, and cleverly spliced
with quirky, often humorous, samples.
'Dead Swan' (150 bpm) introduces the MDS sound, featuring a fat and powerful bassline and quirky effects; the album then accelerates non-stop, progressing
to the supernova apogee of 'Gate of Desire' (155 bpm), which fully demonstrates the mad creativity of MDS. Never forgetting that trance is a state of mind,
tracks can be appreciated physically or mentallyor both.
The album was composed over a period of 2 years; older tracks were revisited and finalized in 2007, ensuring that all tracks benefit from MDS'
ever-evolving maturity as a producer - as well as the innovative effects of his beloved Andromeda and Virus synths.
'When many people dance together in trance, they experience a sense of community. This shared activity, which is a celebration of life, strengthens the
bond of our shared humanity. The awareness of being part of a single, all-pervading consciousness helps us to empathize more deeply with one another - to be
more accepting not only of others, but also of ourselves.' - Rob Bennett
