Last summer, the lovely SASS got a chance to pick the brain of “Intergalactic Pop Hunk” Penguin Prison. Based out of NYC, Penguin Prison aka Chris Glover has been attracting lots of attention from bloggers and music fans for his original productions (remixed by RAC, Jakwob, Dirty Vegas, Shook, Sam Sparro, Oliver etc.) and remixes (of Marina & The Diamonds, Passion Pit, Ellie Goulding, Erik Hassle, Jamiroquai etc.).
Out tomorrow, October 18th, on Downtown Records (at the steal price of $7.99 on iTunes here). The album features songs that have already been hits for a bit like Funny Thing, and The Worse It Gets and new releases like In The Way (listen below).
