New album Dreamstate expected 18th October featuring collabs with Bicep, Tom Rowlands (The Chemical Brothers), and George Daniel (The 1975). “Love You Got” is the lead single.

 

Really enjoying this on first listen.

The album is out now *.* The title track is being pushed as the focus track on streaming playlists

 

 

It currently has a score of 75 on Metacritic based on 7 reviews.

 

NME - 5/5

"A complete and resounding success, ‘Dreamstate’ offers one of the most emotionally engrossing collections of electronic music you’ll hear this year."

 

The Guardian - 4/5

"As Dreamstate progresses, it becomes apparent that Owens is just deploying her idiosyncrasies more subtly than before. The results feel pop-facing without resorting to pop-dance cliches.

 

Clash - 7/10

"Much of ‘Dreamstate’ feels shinier than its predecessors, replacing the dingy basement feel with hands-up, festival euphoria."

 

The Skinny - 3/5

"At times though, the album’s dreamy nature lacks the variety and depth exuded on Owens’ previous works like Inner Song. Its reverb-soaked aura may be lovely, but it rarely drifts course."

 

Slant Magazine - 3/5

"The album excels when it delivers a definitive narrative arc, either through music that resonates with the body or lyrics that speak to the soul. Unfortunately, not every song reaches these heights, but those that do emerge from their slumber to briefly glimpse the sublime."

Well what a bloody good dance record this is eh!

 

Love You Got is my favourite, also loving Rise because Bicep and Sunshine is STUNNIN.

 

#64 in the album chart update today. Inner Song got to #80 previously so I hope she manages to cling on to Top 100 at least.
