Product Description
Product Description
Whether partnered with Guy Sigsworth as Frou Frou, or on her own, Imogen Heap is an enormously gifted singer, songwriter, producer, keyboardist, and programmer. She does it all here on her second solo CD which showcases her remarkable talents. The stunning track "Hide and Seek" offers the electronic equivalent of a cappella, with only Imogen's expressive voice heard via vocoder -- an early favourite that shot right to #1 on iTunes Electronic Chart in June 2005. The song was also featured on the season finale of The O.C., and earlier in the season, The O.C. previewed another track from this album called "Goodnight and Go", a bittersweet ballad about the secret admiring of a neighbour. Comparison's have been made to Bjork, Alanis Morrisette, Joni Mitchell and Annie Lennox, among others, but no one can hold a candle to Imogen Heap. Her electronic programming and keyboarding are so textured and layered, you will hear something new with each and every listening. Her canvas is cinematic, operatic, visionary, and always surprising with twists, turns, tangents and breaks that keep the listener on a journey of the unexpected. Whether evoking a hundred piece orchestra, an electric slide guitar, or a simple vocoder, Heap weaves her magic spell. As a lyricist, Heap has a wicked sense of humour, yet can drive a knife right through your heart when you least expect it.
Description
Although it took Imogen Heap seven years to follow up her solo debut with 2005's SPEAK FOR YOURSELF, the British vocalist was far from idle during the interim, having formed Frou Frou with producer Guy Sigsworth (Bjork, Seal). While her second album mines a vein similar to Frou Frou's electronica/pop hybrid, it also carries a more sweeping and dynamic singer/songwriter aesthetic. The disc's most notable track is "Hide and Seek", a nearly a cappella tune that was prominently featured on the popular teen drama THE O.C., and presents Heap's bold-yet-breathy vocals lounging on a bed of electroniceffects. Other highlights include the glitchy, chiming "Goodnight and Go" and the urgent "Clear the Area", both of which exemplify this assured and intriguing record.
