If you buy this CD you will not be disappointed, even if you don't think you like Hip-Hop! Just check out the reviews below if you doubt. There’s a new movement in hip-hop and it’s 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, Soulive, Michael Franti, Tone-Loc, Digital Underground, Zion I, Crown City Rockers, Hieroglyphics and many others. They’re rapidly gaining praise and forging a unique sound that sets them apart from the influx of commercial hip-hop. “You don’t even need to like hip-hop to love them,” quoted Cactus Records owner, Mike Good. This, their 2005 self-titled release was mixed by Headnodic of the Crown City Rockers and features a wide array of the band’s abilities. The CD was the number one selling album of 2005 at Cactus Records and was the editor’s number two pick for alternative hip-hop on Cdbaby.com. The band has drum-rolled tours up and down the west coast. Don’t miss their live show for a night of dynamic, high-powered hip-hop music. For more information visit the band at www.eightrackmind.com.
