The Best Of... 2004 - 2014

Finnish teenager Lenno is one of our favorite young producers and has been since we first heard his stuff a couple of years ago when he was 15. It's particularly cool because according to Lenno he first started producing at all when he heard our first album and saw a production tutorial we did when he was 13. Anyway, now the apprentice has become the master as he's better than us now  ;-).

The original of this track is an epic 14 minute opus that you can hear here : https://soundcloud.com/theyoungpunx/all-these-things-are-gone

But Lenno has done a stirling job of pumping it up into something more Euphoric and club-friendly, as I knew he would.

All These Things Are Gone (Lenno Mix)

Gimme Honey

The Young Punx' debut album throws out the rule book for dance music, creating their own party rock world where the shipping forecast can sit along side a shred metal solo and electro house beats (Rockall); Ragga, drum and bass and surf guitars blend effortlessly (You've Got To...) or the Carpenters can turn into a UFO themed festival anthem (Interplanetary). 

"The sorta record Fat Boy Slim should have made to follow up 'We've come a long Way Baby'. It's phat, funky, quirky and in-ya -face and above all fun... expect this totally absorbing debut to make it's mark on the end of year 'best of' listings" - Update Magazine

" 'Your Music is Killing Me' sees (The Young Punx) jubilantly shredding genre boundaries, swooping like crack crazed magpies to grab their favourite shiny bits with maniacal gusto... The Young Punx are vehemently anti categorisation" - Clash Magazine 

"Talented beat alchemists... Exhilarating stuff" - Music Week 

"The new kings of dance music" - Hard to Find Records 

"My latest discoveries" - Annie Nightingale, BBC Radio 1 

"Love music... Love The Young Punx. It is music that will have you jumping around like a nutter. This Album rocks! Enjoy!" - 10/10 UKCD.com 

"The Young Punx debut album "Your Music Is Killing Me" is winning plaudits and redefining musical cool" - EQ Magazine 

"Breaks, pop, glam rock, disco, drum and bass, opera, and surf are all thrown in to create a giddying bombardment that doesn't let up once throughout... a good-time party soundtrack" - ID Magazine Review

The Young Punx is the twisted alter ego of Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum producer Hal Ritson - the man behind 25 billion streams for artists like Kanye West, The Chemical Brothers, Charli XCX, Nas, Avicii, Duke Dumont, and Clean Bandit.

This is where the rule-breaking happens.

A wild collision of house, disco, rock, funk, jazz, drum & bass, and anything else lying around the cultural scrapyard, The Young Punx makes high-energy, high-attitude music that celebrates chaos and creativity in equal measure.

From viral bootlegs and remixes in the 2000s, to festival stages worldwide and collaborations with Peaches, Amanda Palmer, Dizzee Rascal, Snoop Dogg and more - The Young Punx has always been hard to define and impossible to ignore.

Now reloading for 2025 with a new wave of music, animation and genre-defying anthems.
The new album WPUNX is on the way. Stay tuned.
