WonderSound artist MNDR featured on Fader TV talking in the studio with producer Peter Wade about her music.

Studio Time with MNDR
Julianne Escobedo Shepherd

Right now MNDR is our favorite electronic pop singer/producer and gear head who crafts effervescent jams we simply cannot shake from our brains while posting the deepest, nerdiest, most pocket protectorly posts about synthesizers on her blog. When she’s not performing her “Pon de Floor” remix with Major Lazer at our parties or playing with addictive Oakland mind-gardeners tRIANGLE, she’s recording her debut album in a Chelsea studio with her colleague Peter Wade. We stopped by to hear some amazing new songs and talk to the duo about synths, patches, grindcore and unicorns.

MNDR‘s track “Fade to Black” was featured as the Song of the Day on Lizzyville.com.

…MNDR’s “Fade to Black” is a pretty stunning IDM track that I had the pleasure of hearing at Littlefield on Saturday during the Girls’ Guide to Rocking event. She’s like Annie but, dare I say it, better, though she has fewer notches on her belt.

MNDR’s “Fade to Black” reviewed by The Fader. For more about the song’s creation check MNDR’s Blog.

It’s tempting to picture currently-NY-based producer/vocalist MNDR 24-7 surrounded by hotwired gear, Frankensteinian drum machines and patched together pedals, a sort of musical robot extension of her arms—her crystal-clear pop voice and gleaming beat sequences just invokes that shit. “Fade to Black” is a total iPod burner, completely anthemic in a song-of-the-summer style with an outburst chorus that evokes the bigness of “Kids in America” or Pat Benetar’s “Invincible”—which is not to say it’s retro, just that it makes us want to walk down the street with our crew, amassing unrelated passersby until we have like a Puerto Rican Day Parade-sized posse following us down Madison, all singing the chorus of this in unison. So maybe MNDR is secretly Ferris Bueller? Listen to it on her MySpace, along with another epic, the wobbly new “Jump In.”
