UK is one big rave: The Neon Plastix

2007_04_18_Neon_Plastix UK is one big rave: The Neon Plastix

The phrase, “the next big thing” gets thrown around a lot, and I might do more than my fair share of throwing. But wait! Really! The Neon Plastix just might be the next big thing in UK (Doncaster) indie/dance music. Their new songs keep pace right along with the Klaxons and they dish out that day-glo-y new rave sound. But, at moments they remind me more of L.A. dance-rockers Moving Units. No matter how I try to pigeon-hole it, I love it.

I can’t stop listening. Enjoy the new ones:


MP3:  The Neon Plastix - Gentlemans Gold


MP3:  The Neon Plastix - 18-30s


MP3:  The Neon Plastix - Untitled

Note the MP3s above are transcodes from 128kbps .M4A files using switch (software). TNP gave us .M4A files but our WordPress (how we be bloggin’) audio player doesn’t support it and neither do I.

Here’s a new remix The Neon Plastix did (their first one) for Late of the Pier:


MP3:  Late of the Pier - Space and the Woods (The Neon Plastix Remix)

And lastly, for good measure, here’s the b-side, “On Fire” from last year’s The Neon Plastix single titled, “Alive”, just in case you missed it the first time around on the Green Pea-ness blog:
