As part of our new summer US project States of Independence we've invited our favourite 30 American curators, magazines, creatives and institutions to takeover Dazed for a day. 

Time to get trippy: radical record label-meets-club experience Fade to Mind are staging a mid-week takeover at Dazed. That means party recordings from NYC to your laptop, Kingdom’s top 10 Vine singers, exclusive bootlegs to download and more from the unstoppable crew. 

Fade to Mind has decided to unlock its vaults and share 5 exclusive edits for free download. VIP blends and edits are central to the Fade to Mind aesthetic, and are traded between all the members of the crew like a currency. They are valuable ammunition on the tour and radio and act as a breeding ground for new ideas. Since its inception, Fade to Mind has been creating these one of a kind blends, pulling classic grime, R&B, and club music into unexpectedly scary, atmospheric, punishing, and sensual places. And there's more where these came from. Fade to Mind is pleased to announce our new monthly show on London-based Rinse FM. Every 2nd thursday at 11pm GMT / 3pm PST starting this Thursday August 14. Tune in to hear our latest edits and tracks.
