The humble strum of an acoustic guitar, the breathy warmth of an intimate, melodic folk-pop vocal, subtle synths in the distance – Italian artist Alaïs reflects with sophistication and respect, on the highs and lows of learning to love yourself.
Creating purely out of a clear love for the process, BIAS brings both precision and heart to the nature of covering music, and injects an impressive hit of originality in the same instance.
Exemplary not purely for the melodic design but the space, the quiet contemplation, and indeed the purity of the recording – the weight of the keys, the raw and intimate, somewhat muffled honesty of it all.
An indie anthem of dark and addictive tones – Sonny Denja blends Latin flavours with heavy electronic sound-play throughout a minimal yet recognisable Duro.
