okay, this is really good - I recognised the name from some pretty decent BJSC entries here and there, but I love this type of synth-pop in general, great new release even if half the songs have been out there for ages and they do sound a little familiar.

'Never Let You Go' and '24 Hours' are brilliant. Those synth instruments on say, 'I Can't Wait' are pretty genius.

Hmm

Pitchfork:
QUOTE
The album front-loads its two best songs, “Started Out” and the twisty “About Work the Dancefloor,” and nothing thereafter packs quite the same punch.


This is what I feared after hearing “Never Let You Go” which is decent, but less enjoyable for me than the lead single(s).

It's weird because I would pretence this Georgia album with the exact same topic sentence as Pitchfork but with much more praise to follow. I thought the album was pretty fantastic start-to-finish - a sweet combination of goofy and cool and very authentic. She might be finding her feet but not in a clueless way, more in the way that a musician wants to explore little pockets of different things. It was hooky and really enjoyable in context.

I wasn't so familiar with the other singles apart from "Started Out" and "About Work The Dancefloor" but I was not disappointed by the others! Definitely give it a go Doctor Blind.

Am I the only one on here who considers 'Never Let You Go' a drum and bass track laugh.gif , it definitely gives me those vibes in terms of production. I know her other stuff isn't and more synthpop though.

Listening to this now - I had similar fears to Dr B that signs were pointing towards potential disappointment but we’ll see!

I loved 'About Work The Dancefloor', but if I'm honest 'Never Let You Go' completely put me off listening to anything else.

Is the album more in a similar vein to '... Dancefloor'? If so I might give it a go.

Her appearance was one of relatively few highlights of the last series of Later... Really impressed with the album on first listen.

Oh I really liked this series as a whole. The guest presenter thing was terrible but was a big fan of four of the lineups which is a lot for me.

Started Out and About Work... are clearly the best two things on it but I enjoyed listening to it, a couple sound like they might end up being duds but that's all - I thought 'Ray Guns' sounded poor in her live sets last summer and that hasn't changed hearing a studio version.

Looking forward to seeing (and meeting) her next week!

I didn't really care that much for 'Started Out' and 'About Work The Dancefloor' (I'll take 'Feel It' over both of them) but loved 'Never Let You Go'!

Yeah maybe I should think more before I post so I don't have to edit, I do tend to edit them a lot and the edit line doesn't look great.
