So this has been sitting in my inbox a while getting neglected but no more till I found out So-Me and Machine Molle worked on the music video.
And the French marketing machine is up and running as I want the New Era flat cap and track n field jacket that features are faux Jamaica merchandise…
So anwyay, who are Jamaica you are asking? Well, formally known as Poney Poney, they’re I guess you could call a lovely mix of indie-electro-synth-garage-rock. Think prominent bassline, snares and kick drums, catchy guitar riffage and subtle and simple vocals over the top.
Anyway, the guys have teamed up again with Xaiver de Rosney of Justice fame and Daft Punk’s sound engineer Peter J. Franco (just to name drop) to help out on their debut album which is slated for an August release. For those interested, the last time they collaborated under the Poney Poney name it sounded a little like this:
So yeah, a name change but still the same-same… But hey, if it aint broke then don’t fix it! If I was to rant further on that topic I could always start some hate on MGMT latest outing…
