Our Take

Laura Mvula's latest collab with the Metropole Orkest is a transcendent symphony of sound, blending her ethereal vocals with the lush orchestral arrangements in a way that is nothing short of mesmerizing.

From the moment the first notes of "Safe Passage" hit your ears, you're immediately transported to another realm, where Mvula's haunting lyrics and the orchestra's sweeping crescendos swirl around you in a whirlwind of musical ecstasy.

Tracks like "Church of Mine" and "Remedy" showcase Mvula's uncanny ability to infuse her music with both soulful depth and infectious energy, while the Metropole Orkest adds a level of grandeur and sophistication that elevates the entire listening experience to new heights.

But it's on the album's standout track, "Golden Ashes," where Mvula truly shines, her voice soaring effortlessly over the orchestra's dramatic swells and poignant strings, creating a moment of pure musical magic that will leave you breathless.

In a world where so much music feels disposable and forgettable, Laura Mvula and the Metropole Orkest have created something truly special with this album, a masterpiece that demands to be heard, cherished, and celebrated for years to come. Trust me, you won't want to miss out on this one.

About the artist

Laura Mvula

Laura Mvula is not your typical singer-songwriter. With her otherworldly voice and genre-defying sound, she has taken the music world by storm. Born and raised in Birmingham, Mvula first burst onto the scene in 2013 with her debut album, "Sing to the Moon," which garnered critical acclaim and earned her a Mercury Prize nomination. But Mvula is not one to rest on her laurels. She has since released two more albums, "The Dreaming Room" and "Pink Noise," both of which further showcase her unique blend of soul, jazz, and electronic music. Her latest album, "Pink Noise," is a sonic journey that sees Mvula experimenting with new sounds and pushing the boundaries of her artistry. Mvula's music is a breath of fresh air in an industry that can often feel stagnant. Her innovative approach to songwriting and production sets her apart from her peers, and her powerful vocals have earned her comparisons to the likes of Nina Simone and Bjork. But don't let her ethereal sound fool you - Mvula is a force to be reckoned with, both on stage and in the studio. With her mesmerizing live performances and thought-provoking lyrics, Mvula has solidified her status as one of the most exciting artists in the music industry today. Whether she's belting out soulful ballads or experimenting with electronic beats, one thing is for certain - Laura Mvula is a true visionary, and we can't wait to see what she does next.
