Vindata

Vindata is an electronic project by Branden Ratcliff. Formerly a duo with Jared Poythress, the project started out producing Hip-Hop and R&B before infiltrating the electronic dance scene in the early 2010s. With a distinct style that reflected R&B roots and gospel upbringing, Vindata quickly made its mark as a forward-thinking tastemaker. At the height of the EDM boom, Vindata injected a breath of fresh air into the scene. "For One to Follow," the second EP released in 2014, attracted the attention of several heavy-weight DJs. It led to remixes for Ellie Goulding, DJ Mustard, A-Trak, Jack Ü, and more. Vindata signed to Skrillex's OWSLA label in 2015, releasing the third EP, "Through Time and Space...," and continued to gain recognition over the next two years, dropping singles like "Own Life" (ft. Anderson .Paak) and "Right Now" (ft. Njomza and Alex & Alex). The project also solidified its place in the Hip-Hop world by collaborating with Fat Joe, Remy Ma & The Dream on the 2017 single "Heartbreak". Vindata made its highly-anticipated return in 2021 with a debut album titled "...With Opened Eyes," on Monstercat.
