Tough Love

Gala

A stark, minimalist pivot from Eurodance into gritty synth-pop. Androgynous vocals meet skeletal electronic beats in a cold, urban landscape.

September 6, 2009

A cold, unwavering stare that finds strength in isolation and digital grit.

Moments Worth Listening For
The skeletal, almost industrial beat of He's Not a Man that highlights her raw vocal delivery.
The 'Un-remix' of Freed From Desire which strips away the club gloss for a more urgent, organic pulse.
The unexpected melodic vulnerability that breaks through the cold synth layers on Crying.
