    SKINT TO RELEASE INTERNATIONAL PONY in UK

    Skint will be releasing the album 'We Love Music' by International Pony in the UK. The German trio's electronic soul sound has been picking up numerous awards from credible German dance music publications and scoring underground hits along the way. Just think Royksopp meets Metro Area with a bit of De La Soul thrown in for good measure and you're almost there. 'We Love Music' houses 16 tracks oozing with modern soulful rays and electro boogie grooves, including the single 'Leaving Home' (out mid-April) which features remixes by Akufen - who is currently producing Craig David - and Radio Slave, who have recently remixed not only Kylie, but Justin Timberlake and Skint's own Xpress 2.
