MY TOYS LIKE ME DEBUT ALBUM – WHERE WE ARE RELEASE 4th MAY ON DUMB ANGEL “Like Lily Allen lost in a k-hole, battered and twisted but deeply catchy and deeply lovable. One of the most striking and idiosyncratic frontwomen to come about in dance music for some while.” - MIXMAG “This great new duo serve up some techno/disco madness.” – THE SUNDAY TIMES “A dark and exceptionally seductive mix of dystopian delight and dancefloor destruction…. Everyone will soon love them.” – CLASH Re-imagining the beats and hooks of dance music’s myriad genres, with an obsessive eccentricity and a childlike abandon, My Toys Like Me release their debut album Where We Are on May 4th on Dumb Angel. With one of dance music’s unique new voices in Frances Noon, My Toys Like Me have fathomed their own distinctive brand of acidic disco-dub. From the House keys, to the sub-bass rolls of trip-hop and dub, to crunching synths and primitive drum’n’bass, through to the blissed out brass and organ of their downtime ballads, principal protagonists Lazlo Legezer and Frances Noon have concocted a heady post-dance brew. The urgent club sounds crop up on album opener and lead single Superpowers, a two-fingers-to-authority romp through ‘My Toys’ twisted house; Barnaby, the bands underground touchstone; the rave-funk of Quiet Please and the ‘wonky’ bassline of Skylights. And while Lazlo delights in the re-invention of his dance music archives, Noon provides an endearingly bratish delivery to lyrics that veer from the confoundingly abstract, to the astonishingly blunt. It is amidst the albums more ambient, organic moments that the true versatility of My Toys Like Me is revealed. The sinister dub and mariachi brass of All Over My Face, the fascinating storytelling of Sick Couple and Making Fire, and the adroit arrangement of production and organic sound on Bats and their Van Morrison cover Young Lovers. My Toys Like Me's debut album is a genre colliding construction of new era Poptronica. FOR MUSIC & MORE INFORMATION CONTACT FREEMAN PR: Amanda@freemanpr.net / Sam@freemanpr.net / 020 7738 3754
