"Mixtape 13 marks the full completion of a year since we started the mixtapes back in May 2010, and we’ve got something a little bit special to say the very least. Introducing Vandera…
Not a common name on the London Dubstep scene, Vandera plays things quiet and comes out with pieces of magic like this mixtape. When I first heard of the concept behind this 60 minute mix, I knew that it had to become part of the series. Here’s how it works – 60 minutes, 60 tracks, 1 key; C-Minor. It’s a brave thing to try and pull off, but damn does it sound good.
With unreleased bits from the likes of DFRNT, Numan, Lung, Artifact and of course Vandera himself, the mix has a decent selection of little treats in it. But, to be completely honest, this mix is not really about the dubs, in fact I’d go as far as saying it wasn’t even about the tracklist, it’s about a 60 minute long tune of epic proportions. With a crazy out-of-the-box approaches to studio mixes like this, it’s no wonder that Vandera found himself nominated for Dubstepforum’s “Best Mix/Podcast 2011″ award alongside the likes of Burial x Kode9, Digital Mystikz, Ramdanman and Addison Groove. A pretty impressive achievement.
I’ll let Vandera explain the full process behind this incredible mix in the interview. Make sure you hit that download button so you can enjoy this piece of art forever."
