MNDR – “Cut Me Out” (Video + Free Download)

After hearing Mark Ronson’s “Bang Bang Bang,” which featured Q-Tip and the duo, MNDR (pronounced “mandar”), my sensors were on high alert.  MNDR consists of Amanda Warner and Peter Wade who both met in New York City in 2008 and quickly gained a lot of attention to move on to opening shows for bands such as Massive Attack, Deerhoof, and YACHT. So far the electro-pop group seem to be churning out great tunes! The second track heard was the “Go Away,” which throws you into an 80s bed of sweet roses, reminiscent of Cindy Lauper‘s “Time After Time” as the percussive sounds pound like an anticipating heart.  “Cut Me Out” continues with an 80s influence but transformed into the now with an electronic production. I’m drawn to MNDR, primarily because a part of me I misses Santigold. Amanda Warner‘s vocal style is very similar. Listen to “Cut Me Out” below and let me know what you think.
