Mirrors Film Challenge

Released:

2010-08-11

Comments:

An odd release. If you can call this a release that is. This data disc was sent out to people who wanted to create a short film for Mirrors their music. The films had to be submitted no later then September 5th 2010 and were screened on September 8th at 'Madame Geisha' (a bar in Brighton, England). I've been told that the band was not that impressed with the results...

The disc contains four MP3's, seven documents which contain instructions, rules, contact details and lyrics plus three Brighton Filmmakers Coalition logos in different sizes.

The song versions on this disc are a bit different than the ones that ended up on the album, as this disc was made almost a month before the final masters were created. The differences are not that big though.

The songs have the following MP3 tags which can be read in the following way:

• 6 MRRRS_LOOKATME_JKMIX_DAY3rev1 = Look At Me (Jonathan Kreinik Mix, day 3, revision 1)
• 15 MRRRS_WILDERNESS_JKMIX_DAY5rev3 = Searching In The Wilderness (Jonathan Kreinik mix, day 5, revision 3)
• 24 MRRRRS_SOMEWHERESTRANGE_JKMIX_DAY10_MicroscopeMix = Somewhere Strange (Jonathan Kreinik mix, day 10, Microscope Mix)
• MRRRS_SOMETHING_DAY6rev1vocaldown2 = Something On Your Mind (day 6, revision 1, vocal down 2)

Farm Mirrs

Released:

2010-06-??

Comments:

This is the real deal. A demo disc that was taken straight off the mixing desk after the band layed down the first few songs during their first album session in June 2010 at the Farm studio.

A sleeve was quickly made by printing something out of iTunes and then cut to fit inside a plastic sleeve.

This disc was made for in-house usage only and not meant for the public or radio stations. This is possibly the only copy.

farm mirrs sounds like farmers, anyone?

Tracklisting:

1. Ways To An End v1.0
2. Into The Heart v1.0
3. Look At Me v1.0
4. Write Through The Night v1.0
5. Perfectly Still v1.1

Remixes

Released:

2010-03-??

Comments:

This is very likely the first physical product that was created by Skint Records for Mirrors. It's a three track promotional CD with two remixes and a cover version. The release date is a guess, as not much is known about this release. There are however some reports on the internet which claim that a remix EP was 'soon to be released' in March 2010.

The initial idea was to release a five track promo. Two remixes were however quite bad and the band asked the label to remove the remixes from the release.

Tracklisting:

1. Look At Me (Laura Cantrell Cover Version)
2. Lights And Offerings (Belbury Poly Mix)
3. Into The Heart (Jonathan Kreinik Mix)

Tracklisting withdrawn release:

1. Look At Me (Laura Cantrell Cover Version)
2. Somewhere Strange (Kyle Hall Mix)
3. Lights And Offerings (Belbury Poly Mix)
4. Somewhere Strange (Dark Sky Mix)
5. Into The Heart (Jonathan Kreinik Mix)

Coming 2010

Released:

2009-??-??

Comments:

The older the releases get, the less we know about them. This one was probably released in 2009 during their Moshi Moshi period, but it might have also been 2010. The reason why this was released is unknown as well. The Mirrors' band manager once revealed on Facebook that there should be a disc that was once given away during some of their early concerts. Could Coming 2010 be that disc?

This release is interesting as it features two versions that are only on this disc.

Tracklisting:

1. Somewhere Strange (Demo)
2. Look At Me (Pure Groove Version)
3. Write Through The Night (Organ Song Press Version 3)
