With Mint 400 Records Presents: Sound & Vision (The Songs of David Bowie), the label continues celebrating timeless artistry through modern voices. This is both a tribute and proof that Bowie’s songs—and the spirit behind them—remain vital, inspiring, and endlessly inventive.

Strange Neighbors bring playful brilliance to “Oh! You Pretty Things,” and Dorothea Tachler (My Favourite Things) reimagines “Five Years” through her Brooklyn indie-pop lens. Renee Maskin offers an indie-folk “Modern Love,” and Tabitha Booth delivers a haunting “Rock ’n’ Roll Suicide.”

Sound & Vision features Mint 400’s roster and friends reinterpreting Bowie classics with bold originality. Those Mockingbirds deliver a fierce, rocking “I’m Afraid of Americans,” while Young Legs inject electro-indie energy into “Moonage Daydream.”

From Ziggy Stardust’s otherworldly glam to the sleek grooves of Young Americans, the avant-garde edge of the Berlin Trilogy, and the stadium anthems of the ’80s, Bowie’s visionary persona left an indelible mark on music, fashion, film, and the very notion of artistry.

David Bowie wasn’t just a songwriter—he was a cultural architect. Across five decades, he constantly reinvented himself, shaping the sound of popular music while blurring the lines between art, theater, and rock ’n’ roll.

Mint 400 Records, known for reimagining music of icons, turns its spotlight to one of music’s most enduring figures with Sound & Vision (The Songs of David Bowie). Following tribute collections honoring Tom Petty, Lou Reed, Link Wray, and The Beach Boys, the label celebrates Bowie’s legacy.
