Kunk readers will know our affinity for the sounds of man-in-Wales Neo Tokyo. We also have a weird affinity for Wales but that’s another issue entirely (don’t ask). He’s just passed on a remix of a Punx Soundcheck track and we are per usual, pleased. Choppy synth-electro that calls to higher powers while at the same time keeping the soles of the feet blazing. Only a matter of time before homeboy is labeled up.

The aforementioned Punx Soundcheck are new to us, but they seem to behitting up all ’round the London scene of late, making some relevant collaborations in a variety of niches, recently electro-ish.

I guess Tokyo will always be by definition, ‘neo’, but not to fear Neo Tokyo will always be new in my heart. Dude from Wales putting some seriously blazing spins on lots and lots of stuff during the better part of the last year. Passion Pit is pretty authentic and probably will pitch pitchfork’s tent for the next 100 blog years but they kinda lack a kick which this edit kindly provides in spades. It also turns the high pitch wail heard on the track from someting kinda quirky into something downright maniacal. Like that.
