Why do we like this?
Twenty-something producer, keyboardist and sometime-vocalist Mndsgn (pronounced Mind Design) has been bubbling for quite some time. The stone-faced beat maker was part of the influential and underground collective Klipmode in the late 2000s that also birthed such talents as Devonwho, Suzi Analogue, and Knxwledge.
Though the quartet started out close, both physically and sound wise, time has seen members grow and branch out more fully into their own frequency. Now living in L.A., Mnd has probably been the most low-key of the four. His work has grown to emphasize mood instead of focusing on a beat and his work with melody has matured.
He recently released bed, an experimental six-track EP. The collection sounds like lazy late nights under the comforter. There are tracks that hit hard but most often the songs are pillow soft and just as comfortable to listen to. Available digitally and on a very limited run of cassettes tapes that has since sold out, don't sleep on bed!
