Many of you might not know about this band but back in the 90's there was a mostly rock driven industrial band called Mortal. They released 5 albums in the 90's (Lusis, Fathom, Wake, Pura, and Mortal) and one addition on in the past few years.

Some people also know them from the "Rift" video that was aired for quite a while on MTV that dealt with the issue of child abuse. Mortal mainly toured the Christian circuit of venues because of their beliefs and direction. After Mortal the two main members Jyro Xhan and Jerome Fontamillas moved on to other projects. Jerome Fontamillas later became the keyboard player for the well known rock band "Switchfoot" (who wrote the song that goes... "we were made to live for so much more, but we lost ourself).

Mortal has been of my biggest influences musically esp in my early days of production when I did industrial / synthpop type music. But they never cease to keep my interest even 15 years later.

The track I decided to remix is off their first album and actually the first song. It is called Enfleshed (The Word is Alive). The album containing this song was released in 1992 and my remix is an extended mix perfect for djs. Enjoy!
