RIKI - VINYL GOLD [VINYL]

Popis - GOLD [VINYL]:
West coast new romantic icon Riki returns with her second simulacrum of pitch-perfect synth-pop, aptly titled for the precious substance it is: 'Gold'. Working with Telefon Tel Aviv co-founder Josh Eustis, the sessions unfolded fluidly and fruitfully, focusing on "quieter moments" and refining the record's palette and voice. The subcurrent of dream fulfillment animates the melodies with a specificity and immediacy that transcends her pantheon of '80s influences: from Saâda Bonaire and Strawberry Switchblade to Bryan Ferry, Bananarama and beyond. 'Gold' skews less dancefloor than her instant classic 2020 debut but taken as a collection it's equally stirring, stylish and exquisitely produced. Comes on apple candy coloured vinyl.
