A dark disco re-visioning of Penguin Prison’s Pop opus “Golden Train” by Pink Stallone. I love the chunky growling synths on this production.

Neon Gold Records latest artist, the blog turned label that have released acts such as Passion Pit and Marina & The Diamonds presents NYC’s Penguin Prison. Penguin Prison channels some early George Michael on this tune, a pristine pop tune with bouncy synths that remind me slightly of Miike Snow, maybe it is the Animal theme as well. A very 80s-white man doing world music-pop a la Peter Gabriel, Paul Simon & The Police seems to be making a comeback lately (ie. Friendly Fires’ “Kiss of Life”) – and there is nothing wrong with that and I am all for it. Check out “Animal Animal”.

Once again cheers, Hyperbole for turning me onto this.
