We're not huge bloggers of the bangERZ formula here, thats not to say some us don't mind that sweated out, wig out, inebriated dance voodoo that follows, but this is a rare off-chance I can share with you something different and alittle more heavy - a personal favorite project/band of mine that has a friendly affinity with the classiest of bangERZ boys, The Ed Banger crew. For the last 16 months I've been following within the deep underground grottos of the internets, a sound previously going by the moniker Poney Poney. These french dudes, Antoine Hilaire and Flo Lyonnet (too cool) have reassembled and reformed their duo into 'Jamaica' (perhaps due to the likeness to the 'Pony Pony Run Run' band). The tagline(album?): "No Problem".
Their tune is French Touch inspired Rock, with juicy licks and a heavy dose of enthusiastic electric guitar manipulation - Phoenix meets Justice- and they play it well with their upcoming album produced by Xavier de Rosnay of Justice and Peter Franco, a FOH engineer with Daft Punk. I have some material from their Poney Poney Days, an EP and the like, however their new album is due soon, along with a video for their new single "I Think I Like U2" which I'll post here when it hits viral.
In the meantime get up to speed with their sound and origin with a shot of the old 'Jamaica', Poney Poney.
