The philosophy of Mental Arts:
This label is dedicated to pronoia.We want to prove the power of sheer positive thinking
and promote the idea of a freeminder approach.
We express the believe in the creative power of crossover,
the mutation and bastardisation of styles.
Mental Arts Records is supported by E.C.C.O. (Earth Coincidence Control Office)
Pronoia:
defined as the suspicion, that the
Universe is a conspiracy on your behalf,
or on the terrestrial level: pronoia
should be defined as the opposite of paranoia:
the sneaking suspicion others are
conspiring to help you (and you them!)
symptoms include: sudden attacks of
optimism and outbreaks of goodwill.
Warning:
Pronoia, like paranoia, can cause
dangerous irrationality if taken in massive doses...
grounding and skill at surfing are key to making the most of an onslaught of pronoia

Motto:
"You should view the world as a conspiracy
run by a very closely-knit group of nearly omnipotent people,
and you should think of those people as yourself and your friends."
--Robert Anton Wilson

Policy:
We currently try to avoid to work with GEMA-Members
because we think the online-fees they charge destroy any business opportunity
in this field. Also we state that non of our releases is copy protected.
We believe in the right to make private copies and think that the
malicious mischief those copy-protection-schemes do to the CD red book-standard
and the consumer rights is bad for the contact to the fans.
