CDR Artist Talk w/ Mystic State at Exchange
Free entry or £5 donation

A event held at Exchange on Sunday 29th September. The event starts at 12:30.


Hailing from Bristol, UK, Mystic State is a tour-de-force in electronic music production, forged from the creative minds of Will Marquiss and Mike Holliday.

As artisans of sound, Mystic State is celebrated for their crystal clear productions that are immediately identifiable, marked by a signature blend that captures the essence of late 90's jungle, dub, and ambient sounds.

Their debut solo album, "My Own Private Island," released under their own label The Chikara Project, was met with resounding acclaim. A steady stream of exceptional releases followed on J:Kenzo's label Artikal Music, where they unveiled gems like "Mahdi", "Tomahawk" and "‘Gallows" all heralded as some of the finest dubstep tracks of their time, more to come from them on Artikal in2024.

In 2023, Mystic State released ‘’The Last Lotus’’ with Truth's label Deep, Dark & Dangerous which was considered some of their best work to date at the 140 tempo. Forever climbing and branching out, the pair are excelling into 2024 with more plans to shake up the foundations of electronic music for generations to come.

Join us for what will be an immersive conversation with Mystic State and bring your tunes for the opportunity to experience your music being played at Bristol's Exchange.
