Watch Mndsgn Cook Up A Luscious & Seductive Groove Live In The Stones Throw Dungeon

Mndsgn is likely one of the beat scene’s brightest new stars, churning out sonic silk like soft-serve. If his mad-dash beat constructing session didn’t prove this in spades, then is super intimate affair, filmed in the Stones Throw dungeon amongst crates of LPs and tees, should convert even the most fundamentalist beat connoisseur. It finds the Jersey-bred one-man music machine behind the keys, sliding through the luscious and seductive Rhodes groove to his single "Camelblues" with bass-man Swarvy holding down the low-end proper. They even dip into a little Dilla, glazing their seemingly impromptu session with the melody to A Tribe Called Quest's “Find A Way” about mid-way through. And if you keep your eyes on the clip for long enough you might even see Stones Throw chief Peanut Butter Wolf creeping in the back of the scene. The track "Camelblues" can be found on Mndsgn's stud label debut Yawn Zen, which is available for you to cop on iTunes today. Watch as he, Swarvy and Knxwledge perform live and direct from the Stones Throw HQ below and stay tuned for the next episode.
