Information[]
Mind Tracer was the thirtieth industry album published by Two Steps from Hell and the forty-fourth overall. A handful of pieces from the album had already been released on YouTube starting June 12th 2020, but the album itself wasn't made available on Extreme Music until July 22nd. It is a dramatic sci-fi album composed by Nick Phoenix and Hitesh Ceon (who had previously collabed with the group on their Open Conspiracy release). Two tracks from this album would go on to be edited and released on the public album Myth.

Trivia[]
- This is the first industry album since Open Conspiracy to feature tracks by a composer that is not either Thomas Bergersen or Nick Phoenix.
- Though uncredited, it appears that Felicia Farerre is featured on Hidden Worlds, which would make this her first appearance on a track that is not available to the public.
- This is the first industry album to have tracks released on YouTube before the album was published on Extreme Music.
- However, if one counts the Catch Me singles as being released on YouTube before the album was released proper, then Mind Tracer would be the second album.
- Hidden Worlds was accidentally uploaded a second time to the official Two Steps From Hell YouTube channel, but was removed shortly after and replaced with So Far from Home, which had not yet been uploaded, however the So in the title was left out, making it just Far From Home.
- This alternate title was later reused for the track's public release on the public version of Insurgent.
