Let’s simply get this out of the way in which now for the previous schoolers: if this was the mid-to-late 90s and even earlier, Mint June wouldn’t be seen as experimental. With lashings of early industrial, techno and electro home making up the majority of his work, this mission dreamed up by composer Jeremy Jung in 2019 could be simply classed as electro home or breaks, akin to Electroliners or DJ Icey. Apparently that stuff is now sufficiently old to be reborn in new codecs and mashups, and actually we’re right here for it.
Philosophically against huge enterprise rave and EDM tradition, Jung began his Mint June mission not simply as a throwback to the underground days however as a re-formulation of that sound with cleaner fashionable strategies. To wit: the primary observe on his first EP, check 1 EP, is named “Reverse of Coachella.” This man is aware of what he’s about.
With check EP 1 Containing a great deal of completely different beat types and a few real experimental components, it’s additionally clear Jung isn’t merely right here to thumb his nostril as competition tradition and remind us of our roots. There’s a pleasure in taking part in with synth manipulation, mods and even these basic straight beats he’s so keen on. Jung’s love is for the science of sound as a lot as it’s for early rave tradition, so on this method he’s additionally fairly experimental. Enter, Surrendering Nina.
Idea albums usually are not precisely big in EDM tradition in the meanwhile, because the pop machine is certainly driving a big a part of that practice. They’ve positively been relegated to the extra fringe components of digital music: IDM, electro, industrial and, right here comes that phrase once more, experimental. The Surrendering Nina EP is, in Jung’s eyes greater than anything, an idea piece that tells a narrative. And what’s the story it tells? Underground rave, after all.
Every observe has its personal vibe that I believe is tailor-made to the general ethos of the mission, portraying the wonder and dysfunction of contemporary underground rave tradition via the story of Nina, a part-time bartender who finds herself overindulging in drug use when she meets a brand new buddy named Paige.
“Paige” is definitely the place the story begins with Surrendering Nina, and it appears Jung would really like us to attract our conclusions from there. Anybody who’s been to an underground rave is aware of this story, and because the largely electro home vibes take us via Nina and Paige’s night time through “You’ll Like It,” “These Guys,” Montage” and “Nina,” the nostalgia for a lot of followers can be so sturdy that we are able to really odor what’s taking place. From “Paige” convincing to strive an underground get together (and its medicine through “These Guys”), the blissful dancing “Montage” as all these new emotions are found to the transcendental discovering of a brand new self within the morning after leaving the warehouse with “Nina”…all these occasions are acquainted and positively have a soundtrack. For these of us who began raving within the 80s and 90s, Surrendering Nina is that soundtrack. Jung’s even made a movie to go together with the EP, and it’s all too acquainted (movie embedded bellow).
Surrendering Nina as an EP is each rave film you’ve ever seen and each true raver’s origin story. It’s what separates pop EDM from rave and it’s clearly one thing Jung as Mint June is keen about and is aware of effectively from expertise. It might appear experimental now but it surely was all experimental at one level. Within the age of EDC and pop artists merging with EDM, festivals costing greater than a Rolling Stones live performance and no assure that the particular person subsequent to you on the dancefloor feels that very same dwelling of their coronary heart, Mint June is right here as a reminder that there are nonetheless loads of us on the market, and we’ll all the time know tips on how to give up to the beat.
Surrendering Nina is out now and will be streamed on Spotify or bought (with a cool vinyl possibility) on Bandcamp. Click on right here for all platform choices.
