Chloe March - Orchardie (from the album Blood-red spark, Hidden Shoal/Powderkeg Records)

The latest album by Chloe March is another heady trip through electro pop but really that tag doesn't do justice to the range of expression.

The air is thick with atmosphere throughout and March is a masterful creator of mood.

This is just one of the stunning rarefied synth compositions topped with layers of her remarkable voice.

I particularly love the dappled pulse of electric piano when the pace picks up for the chorus.

It is also a beautiful sound somewhere between The Blue Nile and David Sylvian and as that would suggest soulful.

Wonderbar.
