I have a theory that most embedded YouTube videos go unclicked, if only for a lack of time. It may depend on how long yr friends list is, but if you have say 20 friends and they all post a different music video, yr just not going to watch them all.

So in that sense, there’s probably no point in me starting a new series for new music videos. But I’m going to do it anyway, because music is my passion and there is new music out there worth hearing. And so I’m going to bring it to you when I deem necessary.

Starting with this track from the second New Young Pony Club album.



Their debut album knocked me out with their aloof take on the disco-punk revival. The new album, The Optimist, sounds even more 80s than the first, and actually gets into some unexpectedly weird arrangements to the point where they almost sound like an alternate-world B-52s where Fred Schneieder is a woman and they go to parties to sneer instead of have fun. Only in a good way.

Which means I wasn’t sure what to think of it at first, but it does seem to be growing on me.

Tell me what’s the answer,

This is dF

People don't click on the Embedded videos. Fair enough.

However, if you are going to post some new music, I will check it out for sure. I might not do it right away, but I'll come back to it.

Summary: Do it if you want. I'll listen.
