Retro-Mind

Retro-Mind

RETRO-MIND je nastao januara 1993 god. u kafeu Konak od clanova neozbiljnih sastava poput THE DOGS-(Wecko i Zika) i WARTICLE (Aca).Dugo
se samo pricalo o bendu jer niko nije imao nista od opreme,instrumenata!Napokon se pocelo sa svirkom na leto 1993 sa improvizovanom
opremom!Bas bubanj od bubnja ves masine koji su Wecko i Aca nosili citavih 5km ????
Dobos je bio frizbi a o cinelama je Zika mogao samo da sanja!Gitare su bile akusticne sa zalepljenim slusalicama na telo gitare i povezane na
najobicniji kasetofon(glava na kasetofonu),tako povezano davalo je izoblicen zvuk koji je licio na nesto sto je distorzirano !!!
I pored ocajnih uslova pesme su pocele da se gomilaju.Prva stvar koju je sastav napravio zvala se Znak pitanja(na engleskom naravno),druga je bila
GODBY.Obe stvari su svirane na koncertima ali nisu nasle mesto na albumu iz 1995.Postepeno se dolazilo do boljih uslova za svirku tako da su i
pesme pocele da se gomilaju i bivale sve bolje!Vezbalo se sa drugim bendovima kao sto su THC,DALTONS.NAPON,HELIKOPTER,SLOBODNA
VOZNJA,CELAVI GLOBUS i.t.d.Posebno bend duguje zahvalnost THE SCARPS koji je od pocetka poceo da podrzava svirku RETRO-MINDA!
Koncerti su dolazili sami po sebi,sviralo se stalno i svuda!Jedinu svirku izvan Krusevca bend je imao u Alexandrovcu,gde je razvalio sve prisutne !
Prekretnicu u postojanju grupe doneo je Branimir Lokner koji je odusevljen svirkom ponudio izdavanje albuma za njegovu kucu TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT
records,to se desilo 10.09.1994 na koncertu na Napredkovom stadionu-ROCK MARATON-gde je bend svirao na ogromnom ozvucenju,pred dve
hiljade ljudi !!!Poceli su planovi za snimanje albuma,problem NOVAC !!!Wecko je zrtvovao svoj bas zarad snimanja albuma,nekako se skupila kinta
citavih 400 maraka koji su puno vredeli 1994 god.Album je snimljen u ADC studiju u Krusevcu,vlasnik i producent Vlada Milutinovic kasnije clan Prsluk
benda !!!!Snimalo se 15 sati i remixovalo isto 15 sati !! rekord !Dream studio je uradio omot na tadasnjim super kompjuterima,tako da beogradjani
nisu mogli da otvore slike na njihovim zastarelim masinama pa su morali da naprave novi omot bez odobrenja benda !!!Kaseta se prodavala dosta
dobro u Krusevcu pa i po ostalim gradovima!Stizali su pozivi za gostovanja po radijima i za koncerte po celoj srbiji.Ali opet isti problem NOVAC !!
Kada imas 20 god. u sjebanoj zemlji i nemas nikakav posao i zivis od milostinje roditelja koji primaju 15 maraka platu,nije ti ni do cega !!!
Tako je doslo do kraja RETRO-MIND-a,bend je napustio Aca ostali su kao nastavili nesto ali to nije dugo trajalo.Kasnije vojska,jedan po jedan,pa
kasnije jos jedan rat,pa beda,pa nemastina ....
2006-usled dobrih finansijskih obrta u drustvu,doslo se do uslova za rad!
Kompjuter kao glavno sredstvo koje menja ceo bend i studio!
RETRO-MIND ponovo zivi

and here is their EP from 2005 called "Retro Mind EP" enjoy!

Retro Mind EP (2005)

Retro Mind: Soundcutting 2

RETRO MIND: Soundcutting 2
A while a go I was contacted by Aleksandar from the industrial metal band Retro Mind. Aleksandar told me that Retro Mind recorded the second album called "Soundcutting 2" DIY released and spread to friends and fans in only 10 CD copies . He was happy to find his band on our blog and gave me the link for the second album for you guys . Soon we will receive the complete info about Retro Mind for you to read. But for now, here is the "Soundcutting 2" album. When I first listened to this album, I was surprised to find that they've gone from industrial rock based band to industrial metal with some grind elements at the moment. Aleksandar told me that the whole album was recorded at home. I've attached the artwork of the original "Soundcutting" that record label decided not to print that way and made an alternative artwork. Thanx to Aleksandar

Retro Minds: Soundcutting

RETRO MIND: SOUNDCUTTING

Retro Mind was an industrial rock/crossover band from Krusevac (Serbia) that was active in the mid 90's.
This album was recorded in 1994. and released in 1995. for Good Taste Records. Unfortuanetelly Retro Mind is long gone and they only recorded this album. I couldn't find any more information about them on the net
but feel free to listen to their album here. The recording is not that good, because I've recorded it from their cassette and I think that it's the only medium they were released on. If someone has any more information about this band, please send it to my e-mail and I will publish it here.

band members:

Aca - guitar/back vocal
Zika - drums/back vokal
Vecko - bass/vocals
Bane - new bass
