MNDR: When Indie Electro Meets Mall Pop


So based on the title of this post, you might be expecting something that sounds a little like this. Sadly, MNDR isn't Robyn Sparkles, but her totally-80s inspired brand of power-pop is quite radical.

MNDR (aka Amanda Warner) hails from Brooklyn and she released her debut EP this past April, titled E.P.E. While it's not exploding with ass-shaking riddims, it's radio-friendly pop that's as danceable as it is catchy.

EP opener "C.L.U.B." might appear appropriate for a sweaty, poorly-lit basement, but it's better tailored for 10:00 PM, when you and your friends are half dressed, trying hard to get drunk in seconds flat, and prepping for your Saturday night. After that first track, you might as well let the record spin out and continue taking shots of Burnett's because the following three are just as good if not better.

Download "C.L.U.B." and the Best New Music'd "I Go Away" down below or grab the whole EP by clicking here.
