About this episode
This week, Anty Horgan of The Bennies sits in to break down the spontaneous creation of the band’s 2016 fan-favorite single, "Party Machine." From their early days performing under the name Madonna to their signature blend of psychedelic reggae and ska punk, Anty shares how the band's anything-goes attitude fueled the song’s infectious energy. He and Chris dig into the wild recording process, the unexpected success of the track, and how Anty quite literally missed the moment it took off because—fittingly—he was out partying. With talk of vocal effects, genre-bending influences, and the raw confidence that comes from capturing the right vibe at the right time, this conversation is as fun and unpredictable as the song itself.
