They landed on this Earth to bring to you their endearing mash-up of electronic soul and groove: pseudo-pop with synthesized instrumentation and featured vocalists. Inspired by, and fusing influences as diverse as Prince, Midnight Star, Bronski Beat and Grandmaster Flash, they bring a different sound to the table: horny pop and electro sex. Independently released through their Muddytrax Recordings imprint, Muddyloop finally burst onto the modern scene like a silver DeLorean from the eighties with their debut album 'Flight Night'. Two years in the making and straight from their bedroom studios, Blonde and Metro have moulded a blisteringly fun and catchy debut which manages to rock the retro whilst traveling the future funk-tastic. Guaranteed to leave blazing tire marks on your ears!

Taking straight off the runway with dancey little numbers like the Michael- Jackson-with-balls "I Could Do Things 2 U" and the synthy electro-soul of "Bodysweat", the album’s ten tracks cut across the spectrum of modern electronic music. Bubblegum vanity pop ("Hairstyle" unbelievably is a homage to Blonde’s hair), and hip hop swagger (the tongue’n’cheek "Girl On Girl") slips gently into bed with stormy love ballads (the Linn-beat John Carpenter-esque "Lonely Souls Fan Club") and jerky electro-pop ("80s Love" and "Glamour Magazines"). The minimalist Armageddon of the finale "The Last Day On Earth" reveals the darker more introspective side of Muddyloop - proving that these boys are no one trick (horny) pony. Permission to land anyone?'
