Beth Orton – 1973 (ANTI- records)
Beth Orton - 1973 |
Release Date: Out Now
I like Beth Orton. I don’t love
her but I do like her and I’ve always felt like that would be cool with Beth,
she seems like the kind of person who genuinely makes music for her own
pleasure and doesn’t worry too much what others think. On new single, ‘1973’, our
Beth has gone all muted electro-pop our asses and, while the voice is
unmistakable, I wouldn’t have pinned this one down to Ms Orton. No, the relaxed
beats and trill melodies are more reminiscent of Goldfrapp and, when you
combine that with Beth’s uniquely and, frankly, beautiful voice, you’re on to a
winner. Snazzy.
