New Young Pony Club Competition

Ahead of their performance at Electric Picnic next month, New Young Pony Club will be mixing things up at Transmission in The Button Factory this Saturday. Their own music is a hybrid of supposed nu-rave and a more pop-based sensibility, and a recent blog post on Myspace suggests that they’re currently into everything from Vampire Weekend and Lykke Li to Yellow Magic Orchestra and Frankie Goes To Hollywood. With all of that in mind, I imagine it will be a suitably eclectic and interesting set.

I recently had a dream in which NYPC’s Tahita Bulmer was, together with her aged grandparents, living in my house. As I was trying to walk up the stairs, her grandmother began to tell me in a bizarre language about a soldier she danced with during “the war”. I’ve absolutely no idea what all of this means, so the two people with the most interesting interpretations of this dream get themselves on the guestlist for Saturday’s event.

With the show looming, the first two to post below will get on Saturday’s guestlist.
