about
Theres a new movement in hip-hop and its alive, live bands with live instruments. Eightrack Mind is just that, a live band with drums, bass, keys, guitar, trumpet, turntables and emcees. Their diversity has allowed them to share the stage with the Wailers, Wu-Tang, Gift of Gab, Tone-Loc, Digital Underground, Zion I, Hieroglyphics and many others. Theyre rapidly gaining praise and forging a unique sound that sets them apart from the influx of commercial hip-hop. You dont even need to like hip-hop to love them, quoted Cactus Records owner, Mike Good. Every Eightrack Mind show is a spontaneous night of positive lyrics and organic hip-hop music that takes inspiration from jazz to reggae to funk to rock with a bit of everything in between. Were definitely a diverse band that can rock the party with our hard-hittin beats or laid-back grooves, but our message is always a conscious and positive one, remarked nat kendall, one of the two emcees. He added, The lyrics compliment the music, innovative and uplifting. When all eight members funnel their inspirations down to one track, its truly a mind-blowing performance. The colossal sound of Eightrack Mind formed in 2002 as a collection of six talented musicians and two emcees with the intention of rocking the conventional realm of hip-hop. Eightrack Mind has nuclear capabilities that fill a niche in the hip-hop world with real instruments, ousting the average DJ and MC act," praised Jacob Goldstein of the Bozeman Daily Chronicle. Eight
