'Looping State Of Mind' is The Field's third album. It's with the arrival of Looping State Of Mind that you finally realise that, for The Field's ambient techno explorer Axel Willner, the loop never stops. previous ideas have been expanded upon and, more importantly, new ones added; vocal samples now creep around signature sound washes, whispering on the periphery; greater contrast has been added with acoustic instruments such as double bass and piano recorded amongst the samples - the result of recording of in the fully-equipped dumbo studios in kompakt's home town of Cologne. Many of the initial sketches, however, still came from Willner himself at his home studio in Berlin, suggesting an embryonic growth to the creation process; "some of the ideas stretching back to the debut are still there," he says, cementing this idea of furthering the re-visited, "but we've just made a real attempt to grow the sound."
