Recorded in caves, crypts, and shopping centers, Mandy, Indiana's debut album i've seen a way is everywhere at once: Their first recordings emerged around 2019, with a smattering of early singles released not long after, culminating in 2021s critically acclaimed & EP which saw the band draw early cosigns including a remix from Daniel Avery and support slots from Squid, and Gilla Band. The latters Daniel Fox mixed several of the tracks on the album alongside Robin Stewart (Giant Swan) and the album was mastered by Heba Kedry (Ryuichi Sakamoto, Bjork). Like Thomas Bangalter locked in This Heat's Cold Storage fridge studio with Special Interest for a weekend, keeping their setup minimal for maximum effect. Buried found sound samples, sprawling percussive experiments are arranged via oblique references to film soundtrack strategies and experimental video games.. "We take inspiration from films where the language of cinema is disrupted," explains Fair, who takes Julia Ducournau's narrative detournements as a key influence. "We want to alter textures, create clashes, and craft those moments when what you're expecting to happen never comes by subverting expectations you keep an audience on its toes." Though ive seen a way was painstakingly crafted, where Mandy, Indiana thrives is the unexpected - and the resulting album sounds like nothing that has come before it.
