Jan 09, 2017 By Laura Studarus MENT 2017

We’re starting our February off with a trip across the pond to check out MENT Festival in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Since most of the artists playing haven’t made their U.S. debut (yet) pre-fest discovery starts now with our dip into our ongoing mixtape series.

The first artist up is Stergin, a Austria born, London-based artist with a taste for Bowie-like weirdness and good old-fashioned rock. (See what we mean?) He’s provided us with a mix of road-ready tunes from Kimbra, Animal Collective, and How to Destroy Angels among others.

“This mixtape is a 4 week road trip condensed into 77 minutes,” he says of his mix. “Good times, fun times, slow times, endless times, dirty times, tense times, scary times – a good road trip. If you go on a trip this might be your mixtape for the road. Alternatively if you’d like to go on a road trip but are short on time or money you might sit down in a comfortable position, get a bottle of red wine ready, close your eyes and do the roadtrip in your brain, well join me on my road trip. Peace.

Listen to his mix below. Wanna join us at MENT? Cool—grab any festival info you might need here.
