Shy Child is an electronic music group from NYC that flows in the same vein as Klaxons, Hot Chip, and Soulwax; All of which Shy Child have supported on tours.
Shy Child’s newest full length record (their third), ‘Wall of Noise’, released on Wall of Sound, is their most polished yet. My two favorite tracks off the record, I just discovered, have additional production credits going to Paul Epworth a.k.a. Phones. Phones is one of the best things to happen to electronic music, so I ain’t mad at that! The tracks are their first single, ‘Drop the Phone’ and ‘Astronaut’. The title of the single makes even more sense now!
