Mandy, Indiana’s debut album i've seen a way is a restless and inventive record shaped by recordings made in caves, crypts and shopping centres. Following a run of early singles and the acclaimed ... EP, the Manchester-based group expand their sound into something both confrontational and meticulously constructed.
Mixed by Daniel Fox (Gilla Band) and Robin Stewart (Giant Swan), and mastered by Heba Kadry, the album combines driving rhythms, found-sound recordings and electronic experimentation with influences drawn from film soundtracks and video games. The band cite filmmakers who disrupt conventional storytelling as a key inspiration, applying similar ideas to their music through sudden shifts, unexpected turns and carefully engineered tension.
Despite the detail behind its creation, i've seen a way thrives on surprise, pushing familiar sounds into unfamiliar territory and establishing Mandy, Indiana as one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary experimental music.
