PORTIA MONIQUE
A hell
of a debut from Portia Monique – a singer who gets very strong support here
from Reel People – who are very much at the top of their game too! The record's
a bit like a Reel People album, but a lot more soulful up top – as Portia's
vocals have this rich, righteous feel that really pushes the cosmic energy of
the record forward – a bit like some of the best work we were hearing from the
UK a decade ago, but a lot more fresh and individual as well! A great return to
form for the kind of music we've always loved from Reel People – but with
echoes of the more dynamic 4Hero side of the spectrum too. Titles include
"Cloud IX", "Ain't Scared Of You", "Ecstasy",
"My Love", "Grace", "Nobody", and "Never
Give You Up". ~ Dusty
