Never heard of her until she showed up on my FB feed the other day doing a live set on something called Hör, as in German for hear or listen. I’m a new fan.

Again parts of this are really nice and delicate but there are times I find myself wishing it would ramp up a little more. "Jeanette" is wonderful, reminds me of those Oni Ayhun singles

I liked her debut, but this one is just wonderful. Echoes of Dubnobasswithmyheadman here and there, or so it seems to me.

yeah you know pretty much immediately what you're gonna get and that it's gonna be really good

Inner Song is beautiful. Had it on repeat the whole afternoon.

Intrigued. She’s been consistently good so far.

not sure what i think of this new one yet but it is definitely a curveball. it's ambient, but not a very cuddly kind of ambient

Quite surprised at how industrial the first and last tracks are. Reminded of Jenny Hval.

coproduced by one of Hval's producers

I like this. After some of what I had read about it, I thought it might be more abrasive, but I guess those comments are just in relation to her earlier work. It’s not an “easy” listen I guess, but there’s plenty to draw you in.
