The title track on Pati Yang’s Hold Your Horses EP (out 17th Sept) was included in XFM’s X-Posure’s top 5 tracks of the week, this week.
Pati is also giving away the full length Wires and Sparks Jagz Kooner Remix’ as a free download today. The collaboration is to be featured in DJ Mag’s ‘Coming Up’ section and reviewed in Mix Mag, both in their August issues.
Pati’s brand of Synth based experimental electro pop has seen the UK press draw parallels with thriving Scandinavian pop artists such as Bjork, Nikki and the Dove, Robyn and Icona Pop, whilst Joe Cross’s influence on the record has prompted references to acts such as Hurts and Florence and the Machine.
Pati about the release; “Hold Your Horses to me is a kind of a feel good track, but without the feel good in it. It never ceases to amaze me that the irony of relationships seems to be that people hold back. I regularly observe friends going through it, but it's not something openly talked about. People are seriously scared of commitments and showing emotions these days aren't they? We blast it out to the world through social media but can't face people we really care about… Sound wise, imagine Warhol's take on that can of soup, it's a kind of a take on pop music, where the palate of sounds and the structure forms a song, but it just doesn't want to sound like a linear pop record. I had a lot of fun working on it.”
To coincide with this second release, Pati is returning to the studio to write her 5th full length album to be released in December, which will be her 1st full UK solo release.
