D*Minds (formerly Distorted Minds) are the British drum and bass producers & DJs Alistair Vickery & Jon Midwinter.
From their legendary RUN raves to their award-winning trailer scores via years of incendiary d’n’b club records, D*Minds operations run deep in all directions. But one thread runs consistently through every benchmark they’ve set; their dedication to their craft. Minds over matter: Alistair Vickery and Jon Midwinter’s sights have been set high since they emerged in the late 90s right in the thick of Bristol’s most explosive musical movement and swiftly became a prominent force in the new wave of Bristol’s rich breakbeat culture throughout the whole of the 2000s to this day.
