Our Take

ARLO PARKS My Soft Machine (Transparent Violet Vinyl)

Arlo Parks has once again woven a tapestry of introspective musings and dreamy melodies with her latest offering, "My Soft Machine". The transparent violet vinyl adds an extra layer of whimsy to this already ethereal album, as if holding the music in your hands is like cradling a piece of the universe itself.

From the opening track, "Cola", Parks invites us into her world of soft-spoken confessions and poetic reflections. Her voice, like a comforting whisper in the ear, guides listeners through the ups and downs of love, life, and everything in between. The production, with its blend of lo-fi beats and rich instrumentation, creates a lush backdrop for Parks' poignant lyrics to shine.

Tracks like "Hurt" and "Black Dog" showcase Parks' ability to tackle heavy topics with grace and vulnerability, while "Too Good" and "Eugene" offer moments of pure pop bliss. "Green Eyes" is a standout, with its haunting refrain and hypnotic groove.

Overall, "My Soft Machine" is a captivating journey through the mind of a young artist wise beyond her years. Arlo Parks has once again proven herself to be a force to be reckoned with in the world of music. So grab a cup of tea, put on your favourite oversized jumper, and dive into the transparent violet bliss of this album. You won't be disappointed.
