Seeking: Review, Feature

Style: Pop

Sieski’s electro-pop/synth-pop vibe is instantly attractive, from the moment we hear the pulsing beat and insistent melody on “Gumdrops.” Think classic female-fronted acts such as Goldfrapp, but also more contemporary projects like Magdalena Bay and Sofi Tukker. “Lady Deity” is better still—a sultry, brooding statement of intent. This strong woman knows what she wants and what she likes.

Her voice is evocative and emotional, while maintaining a level of chill like a modern Beth Orton or Beth Gibbons. All the while, the electronic backdrop is exemplary. Never intrusive, the music frames the vocals. “Happy to be Here” is perhaps the most expansive song of the three—a hypnotic journey. But there’s much to admire here.The post New Music Critique: Sieska first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
