Cut Copy
Free Your Mind
The ethereal and danceable fourth record from Grammy-nominated foursome Cut Copy. 'Free Your Mind' is an audio tribute to seminal Summers of Love. For fans of: M83, SBTRKT, The Knife, Miike Snow, Moderat, Friendly Fires and Hot Chip. 'Free Your Mind' creates a fantasy of the next youth revolution. While the two summers of love were birthed from burdening times - Vietnam and 10 years of Thatcher's reign - they were one hell of a party. 'Free Your Mind' binds the two epochs without the negative correlation. The album was created in a whole new way, with Dan Whitford sketching a song a day over a four month period before completing the tracks with the rest of the band and finally, turning to mixer Dave Fridmann (Tame Impala, MGMT, Mercury Rev) to hone their new creations. Having discovered a portal to the UK acid house movement through Melbourne's booming subterranean dance community, the quartet interacted on the dancefloor without uttering a word, jointly reaching a higher state, feeling involved in a secret society and ultimately becoming one with the music. A sanctuary that was seemingly only a few degrees away from a bygone era when warehouse locations were revealed by hotlines, pirate FM radio and baggy uniform.
