I made a mix for a curly haired collegiate cohort that I am meeting soon for coffee, I hope, and I thought to myself, this would be a good thing to post too. So I did. I hope you enjoy it.

What a Fantastic Playroom!
The first band that I’m going to cover in my series of girl fronted groups is the indomitable and Intel pimped New Young Pony Club. The UK band was heralded as one of the first acts to kick start the Nu Rave movement along with other NME super hyped bands like the Klaxons. They utilize a system of stop and go ultra rhythmic bass and cooing synthesizers to coax people out onto the dance floor. Once you’re there though, vocalist Tahita Balmer will induce some manic dance floor fury with her Blondie-like seductive authority.
New Young Pony Club’s debut LP “Fantastic Playroom” is set to be released in late August of this year. A clear highlight from the album is the galloping single “Ice Cream” with it’s sensuous strut that could work just as well in the bedroom as it could fire up a party. The atmospherics and build in another album highlight “The Get Go” release to become a bouncy and most satisfying number. While the Talking Heads like rhythm never does let up, that doesn’t mean that the songs don’t slow down for some sensitive, in your ear style purring like on “Talking Talking”. That song practically requires mood lighting and a rotating zebra bed. The greatest strength of the New Young Pony Club is that they aren’t afraid to slow songs up a bit and increase the funkiness, every guitar, every blip, every bass jab is there to enhance the groove and get the party started.
