MYTHM’s debut album is one that the scene will talk about for quite some time. With everyone’s excitement at a peak for Mind Of Madness, we thought it would be the perfect time to sit down and chat with MYTHM about his latest career achievements and more!

Collaborating with producers has been a big part of my career, but for my debut album ‘Mind of Madness,’ I wanted to take a different path with only two MC features: Slowie and Rakjay. The album is a journey through all things MYTHM: dark, intense, deep, bold, but also a new side of my sound that I’m really excited to show my fans.

Hey MYTHM, thanks so much for chatting with us! First off, congrats on your debut album release! Let’s dive into the creation process of Mind Of Madness. Was this a collection of tracks you compiled over time, or did this LP come together more organically in one swoop?

Hey, thanks for having me, and I really appreciate the kind words. The creation of the album was a bit of both for me. The entire album was written in the span of about five or six months, and while some tracks were crafted over time, others were written quickly. This resulted in a cohesive LP that I’m very proud of. It really reflects all the sounds of who I am as an artist.

Did you face any creative roadblocks while creating this album? How did you overcome them if so?

While creating the album, there were certainly moments of creative roadblocks, as there always are when creating art. However, I really got outside my comfort zone and approached these challenges by seeking inspiration from different sources and experimenting with new techniques. Honestly, one of the biggest roadblocks I faced was the album’s name. That took a while to figure out, but when the idea came, it definitely clicked and fit perfectly.

“Death Wish” and “Rough” are your only collab tracks featuring Slowie and Rakjay. Can you tell us how you first connected with these artists and what led to the creation of these two tunes?

I connected with Slowie and Rakjay through Instagram. We hit it off creatively and decided to collaborate on “Death Wish” and “Rough.” Their styles are very different, so it was a great fit for the album. They really complimented my sound well, resulting in two tracks that blend our unique energies seamlessly.

Seeing positive responses from artists on your debut album before it was released, and hearing your IDs rinsed to crowds at events as big as Coachella, must have been super validating. What has been the most exciting support from an artist you’ve received on this project yet?

Truth played my track with Rakjay to a sold-out show in Portland, and it was all caught on stream as well. They’ve been big supporters of my tunes from the get-go, and I can’t thank both Tristan and Dre enough. They are a huge staple of the dubstep scene, so it’s always incredibly validating to receive recognition from someone whose work I admire and respect.

Putting out your initial album is a big deal! How has it been working with Deadbeats on this milestone?

Working with Deadbeats has been awesome. Their support has been instrumental in bringing my vision to life, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with such a reputable label. It’s also really cool that they are a Canadian label. Being from Vancouver, Canada, it feels like some homegrown type of vibe.

You end your album with “Voices In The Ether,” which takes a melancholy and entirely different route from your other tracks. Is there a deeper meaning to this song that you would like to share?

I love it when an artist puts a track on their album that doesn’t sound like anything they’ve ever made, a complete curveball. “Voices In The Ether” was exactly that for me. It’s honestly one of my favorite tracks on the album. There are no drums, and it’s purely just synths and a bunch of distortions. It reminds me of Blade Runner meets The Phantom of the Opera, and I think it’s a great palette cleanser. It’s a completely new sound for me, and it was the perfect ending to the album.

Now that this big release is out in the world, what’s next for MYTHM?

With this release finally being out, I’m excited to take it all in and enjoy the moment. I want to let this piece of work marinate and let my fans digest it to its fullest. I’m going to hold off on releasing music for a couple of months and let things settle. You only get one debut album, and this is a career-defining moment for me. I will always strive to push boundaries and keep exploring new creative avenues, and I can’t wait for the future. This feels like a new chapter is about to begin.
