Imogen Heap is an English singer-songwriter and composer. She is known for her work as part of the musical duo Frou Frou and her solo albums, which she writes, produces, and mixes. So good.
Couldn't get into Sparks as much as I would have liked, but the two before that and Frou Frou are gold.
Yeah Sparks is super disjointed and inconsistent. I'm guessing a lot of it was down to how it was made, there's still a handful of songs on there I love though.
New song is a fun experiment: Imogen is interesting in that I love her music and she's written several of my favorite songs, but she doesn't have a single album I love as a whole. I think she jumps around just enough stylistically that there are large chunks of her discography that just don't appeal. But when she's on, it's unreal. Personal favorites: Tidal Wait It Out First Train Home Can't Take It In Let Go You Know Where to Find Me Hide and Seek The Listening Chair (have to be in the right mindset, but it's incredible)
I think every song on Details is incredible and I'd say like 90% of SFY is too. The last couple of albums have been more inconsistent.
Some of my faves: Glittering Clouds Not Now But Soon Flicks Let Go Candlelight Have You Got It In You? Canvas The Moment I Said It But I also made this list pre-Sparks so I'd definitely add You Know Where to Find Me and Xizi She Knows.
Let Go Flicks It's Good to Be in Love Must Be Dreaming Headlock Daylight Robbery Just for Now Goodnight and Go Half Life First Train Home Tidal Between Sheets Few of my favs.
I can't even believe she's going on tour with Guy Sigworth Mycelia World Tour - Mycelia for music can't wait for some US dates to be released
I just listened to Speak for Yourself the other day. Such a great album. “Hide and Seek” is truly one of the great songwriting masterpieces of the century.
looks like the setlists have been pretty different. I feel weird going into it not knowing all of the Frou Frou she plays.
I didn't recognize a ton of what she played, but I was in awe of how fucking cool those gloves are. She actually said Ari is the only other person to ever use them on tour. So cool that they have the relationship they do.
