except it was recorded in 2017!
no, but it's great stereo-panning rhythmic psychedelia
like a lost batch of barely recognisable remixes of Goldie tunes done by Source Direct and Hidden Agenda
lead track of OneMind's debut album OneMind presents OneMind

sweird
it still sounds
like
the future
to me
very odd, that - cos i know it's not, that it's a now classic sound-style...
that it's history... legend...
a mythic and mythologized era
(hell, I done mythologized it myself - not single-handedly but certainly made an outsize contribution there!)
i know that we've gone past this and are looking back at it in the rear-view mirror
except that listening, it feels open and wide and forward-leaning - a full-speed ahead windshield view
perhaps it's just a trick of memory, how I felt then flooding back involuntarily
or that it's all so imprinted in my neurology and brain pathways that those sounds can't be heard any other way
it's not like I don't feel that feeling about some things happening today
(more so than 2009-2010)
but yeah, it feels like my ears are staring out at a vista, a frontier, when I listen to it
if i played it to my beats and bleeps mad son, I wonder if he's be able to tell it was from the past ?
(not literally from the past obviously, in actual fact made virtually yesterday)

There's a lot of interesting and varied stuff coming out on Headz these days. If you can accept the music doesn't move mountains anymore there's lots to enjoy.
who do you recommend?
If you want updated versions of classic Headz sounds then there is good stuff from throughout the last 4 years of releases. For more interesting and novel approaches the various Scar, SB81, kid Drama. Detboi releases are a good place to start. Detboi and Kid Drama in particular.
If you're enjoying the stereo panning drums plus atmospherics the Blocks and Escher and Dom and Roland Headz albums also offer hi tech old thrills
nice one In Ate
Would be good to ur thoughts on them if they inspire any
