Fresh off the presses at Kearnage Recordings, Bryan Kearney’s re-imagining of Enigma State’s “State Of Mind” landed on 23 June 2025, clocking in at a turbo-charged 143 BPM and primed for main-floor impact.
Kearney first unveiled the rework during his marathon three-hour set at Kearnage London 2024, and it hasn’t left his USB since. The press blurb is no hype: uplifting melodies meet piston-driven kicks, injecting an extra shot of adrenaline into Enigma State’s already classical-leaning original.
Manchester producer Nathan Stealey—better known as Enigma State—has built a cult following by painstakingly recreating late-’90s trance with original hardware. Vinyl outings like Sacred Art / State Of Mind and his 2025 debut album Of the Essence cemented his rep as the scene’s analogue purist.
Dublin’s Bryan Kearney has been bending genre boundaries since 2006, spinning everywhere from ASOT to Sensation and running his own Kearnage imprint since 2010. Known for marathon open-to-close sets and a no-phones-on-the-dance-floor ethos, he blends uplifting euphoria with a tech-trance bite that fans call “Kearney energy.”
Kearney wastes zero time: a thunderous kick-bass combo announces lift-off, while shimmering arpeggios tease the original’s nostalgic hook. The breakdown is pure hands-in-the-air—warm, orchestral pads give way to a razor-edged supersaw riff before a snare rush catapults the mix back into warp speed. Subtle acid flickers and clever fill-cuts keep the 6-minute ride tense yet fluid, proving why this edit slayed test crowds long before release.
⭐️ Rating: 9/10
🎧 Perfect for:
- Peak-time festival moments
- 4 AM after-hours second winds
- Any workout that demands a 143 BPM push
A near-perfect fusion of old-school heart and modern horsepower.
