Description
Alison Goldfrapp has set a towering bar for British synth-pop in the 21st century and shes only just getting started. The magnetic London-born singer, songwriter and producers seven albums with Goldfrapp were fuelled by an unfailing modernity and a sixth sense for sounds that were more timeless than any trend. With the release of her debut solo album The Love Inventionan electrifying dance-pop suiteher multi-faceted musicianship reaches a new peak. The Love Invention marks Alisons reawakening as a dancefloor priestess, in an intoxicating showcase of the disco and house influences that have always been at the heart of her musical DNA. In Alisons quintessentially complex way, the album’s moments of sincerity are paired with a devious sense of fun. Lead single So Hard So Hot bottles the ephemeral joy of a dancefloor with its anthemic house beat, disco handclaps, and an exquisitely alluring vocal, whilst on NeverStop, Alison is flooded with the rush of an all-encompassing love over a buoyant, rubberised beat, and Balearic synths and a swooping punch-the-air chorus on ‘Love Invention’. Alisons dedicated approach to pop innovation has firmly situated her as the rare leftfield artist who has been embraced by the pop mainstream without diluting one iota of her one half of electronic duo Goldfrapp, Alison scaled the charts with multi-platinum album sales, unforgettable Glastonbury performances, multiple Brit and Grammy nominations and an Ivor Novello for Strict Machine.
