It was a congregation of abbreviations when NME stopped MNDR to talk about her music at SXSW.

I found out later on that she’s a professional ‘top-line’ writer for numerous mahoosive major label popstars. Combine that fact with a nifty sideline in serious minimal techno disc-spinning and all the pieces of her puzzle begin to fall ever-so-neatly into place. We got chatting afterwards. We covered the same conversational ground you’d expect with any lektro-pop hopeful. Y’know; Black Flag, world economics etc.

Watch video of MNDR live at SXSW and her interview with NME here.

Spinner.com got the spin on MNDR in an exclusive interview.

MNDR is the pseudonym of Amanda Warner, a jet-setting party gal who, along with band mate Peter Wade, creates club music that blows minds and wiggles behinds. Known for her high-energy live shows, MNDR is takin’ the indie electronic world by storm with lights, sound and more hooks than you can shake a stick at.

MNDR’s Amanda Warner was interviewed by Full Frontal Fashion about her glasses, favorite jewelry store, and her thoughts on the new year.

This tall spire of awesome with the fluffed-out blonde cloud of hair and giant white eyeglasses (love, love, love them) put on the most incredible, dance-crazy show I have seen in a while at Coco 66 this past weekend. Before I saw her, I had heard two tracks and was totally feeling it, but I have to say that seeing her break it down live, with a goemetric light show flickering over her to the beat of her voice, is a whole different and amazing thing. MNDR is little bit M.I.A., a little bit Cyndi Lauper, a whole lot exactly what my iPod has been dying for.

“I don’t want to make a record,” says Amanda Warner, a.k.a. the latest, hottest, most effervescent minimal-techno electro-pop project to hit Brooklyn. “I want every song to be a number one. I want it to be huge and the best thing I can make.” Warner came to Bushwick last winter by way of Oakland, California–but it was in her hometown of Fargo, North Dakota, that she learned to multitrack at the age of nine. “I’m a mega, mega gear nerd,” she admits. MNDR will release her debut album, a collection of singles produced by Peter Wade, in spring 2010. More info at mndrmndr.com — Lucy Madison
