The new ep from a band I’ve been following for a while is perhaps their most delevloped and danceable product to date. Wishing You Whatever’s Best is a well produced five track gem from Russel Baylin, Sarah Snow, and My My My. The ep kicks off with "Hard Kisses" and firmly puts the listener in and world late of eighties pop glory. The ep is filled with snyths, effects, and tons of dance tracks. The second track, "24 Hour Love Affair" keeps pace and delivers a great sing-a-long chorus. I love the interplay between Baylin and Snow and the feeling that I should be hanging at a mall in line for Duran Duran tickets. My favorite track on the album is the most electronic and is called "Middle Age Hardware and Youthful Indiscretions". The track is alive with rock and technology. The ep is filled with dance floor ready tracks that are perfect for this summer heat.

The ep will be released on June 28th, and the band will be performing in July 1st at Beat Kitchen.
