Stones Throw's first female artist follows up a strong debut EP with this full length album. The cover with its casual, semi-experimental photography evokes some late seventies fusion jazz feelings, while the music itself evokes an updated vision of the fusion ideals. What I'm trying to say is that it sounds like a new hybrid of the current R&B scene, mixed with Stones Throw type beats, L-Boogie type diversity, and throwback jazz styles. Georgia holds her own on the boards too with beats on par with anyone in the ST stable. The Telekenetic Kat, who is a good meter for this type of stuff, loves this shit. Check "Melanin(1), Frames(2), Lovelight(3), Speakervision(4)," and "Birds(5)." Pretty deep at 21 tracks. All produced by Georgia Anne herself.
