    "comment": "The seeds of this MIEN were planted back in 2004 when Rishi Dhir (Elephant Stone) crossed paths with Alex Maas (The Black Angels) during a serendipitous encounter at SXSW.\n\nThis meeting sparked a friendship and a series of collaborations. Around the same time, Rishi met John Mark Lapham of The Earlies, whose electronic and production expertise would become a cornerstone of MIEN's sound. Robb Kidd (Alex Maas, Golden Dawn Arkestra) joined the band on drums in 2018.\n\nThe album’s genesis reflects MIEN’s boundary-pushing spirit. \"It’s an organic process,\" notes Rishi Dhir. \"A simple idea can become something monumental when we each put our stamp on it.\" \n\nThe creative journey was heightened during key in-person sessions, such as an intensive recording period in Austin during South by Southwest.  https://tinyurl.com/38ny642t",
