New York’s Julia Kwamya makes moody disco: delicate but rigorous synth pop that makes you tap into every emotion possible. Her work exists in a sweet spot between finding the impossible words to articulate sadness, and also being able to be joyful, to get down and groove. It’s a little Bossa Nova, a little High Life à la her African parents. Think of her music as like what would happen if Sade fronted the Knife. Ecstatic, weird, unafraid wearing one’s heart on one’s sleeve.
