Mentallo & The Fixer chronology

Music from the Eather is the ninth studio album by Mentallo & The Fixer, released on October 26, 2012 by Alfa Matrix. The album was released as a two CD standard version^[2] and a limited edition box set^[3] containing an additional third CD, a sticker, a postcard and a poster.

Background

The album keeps "the theme developed on the last conceptual Enlightenment Through a Chemical Catalyst album, dealing with higher or altered states of consciousness-experiences Gary Dassing has personally gone through."^[2] "I just wanted to work on music that would stimulate my ears. I wanted to do things that would trip me out!", explains Dassing.^[2] The warning on the album cover Be cautious using this substance refers to this theme. Music from the Eather completely avoids vocals.^[4] However, voice and other samples are frequently used. Several tracks are remixes or appear to be reworks of songs of the same album and of Enlightenment Through a Chemical Catalyst. The track Opening the Bandwidth for the Cosmic Signal was first released as a reworked version on the EP Commandments for the Molecular Age.^[5]
