Dependent Records noticed a surprisingly high demand for the Mind.In.A.Box album "R.E.T.R.O". With its unusual concept of re-sampling the tunes of old C64 video games, the album seems to draw much attention from those who also enjoyed the snippets on www.mindinabox.com. There is a definite appeal to resurrecting the sound aesthetics of 1980s video games. Mind.In.A.Box. mastermind Stefan Poiss has also come up with another gift for the supporters of his project: Upon purchasing the original CD, fans will once again find an included code in the booklet, which makes it possible to discover unpublished material on the band’s webpage. There are also rumors of an exclusive video clip as part of the bonus material range.

Don't you want them too, these girls in uniform? With their well-behaved partings, their dutifully buttoned shirts and their shiny leather boots?
