Imogen Heap: Queen of the New Underground

Alternative, Chillout, Electronica, Music, Pop Posted by Clarke 109 Comments

Ellipse by Imogen Heap, Released 2009These days most people know the name Imogen Heap. But if you don’t recognize her name, you’ll certainly recognize her music from the first few bars. Ethereal, unique, inspiring, captivating, cutting-edge, bold, experimental, soothing, heart-wrenching, masterful—just a few of the words I would use to describe Imogen’s sound. For me Imogen Heap is the Queen of the new Underground. For those of you who don’t know who I am talking about, please let me introduce you to musical innovator Imogen Heap. Even if you aren’t sure if you’ve ever heard her music before, the opening riffs of the memorable Let Go released by Imogen’s side-project Frou Frou, will definitely bring back memories of rushing to the dance floor to interpret this song with your own brand of voodoo. Calling her simply a multi-instrumentalist doesn’t do her and her music justice. She’s a magnificent one-woman show. An Imogen Heap live music performance is truly captivating. The layers of sound that swirl around her uniquely beautiful voice are spell-binding. Her command of the instruments that surround her during a live mix is rare in today’s music world. As each song ends, you wish you could hit replay in order to see and hear the magic all over again. And thank God for YouTube you can. Her songs are epic journeys of melodies that pull at every heart string, yet at the same time are so cutting edge you still get to be the cool kid on the block to say you are a fan. Imogen’s discography of solo material and collaborations to-date is impressive. Standout singles are: Just For Now, Let Go, Hide & Seek, Clear the Area, Goodnight & Go, First Train Home. If you don’t already have these tracks in heavy rotation on your iPhone, iPod or favourite mp3 player, treat yourself to these timeless melodies and Imogen’s beautiful voice.
