MNDSGN – “SNAXXX” – [Stones Throw]

Isotope   7/30/2024   12-inch, Hip Hop

SNAXXX gives us 16 tracks of chill, sensual hip hop beats with heavy soul, funk, and acid jazz notes. My two words for this album are sensual and dreamy. Definitely music to put you in the mood. You might call it hip hop, but its many influences occupy a much broader musical space than that one genre. MNDSGN (pronounced Mind Design), is Ringgo Ancheta, and he has collaborated with other beatmakers like Suzi Analogue. He is also part of the collective known as Klipmode. Guest artists Devin Morrison, Anna Wise, and Liv.e appear on some of this album’s tracks. Play SNAXXX and float in a cloud of pleasure.
