Bleep

Tunisian songwriter and singer Emel Mathlouthi delivers a record of ornate and powerful avant-pop in the form of Everywhere We Looked Was Burning. Built around her towering and almost operatic singing style, Everywhere We Looked Was Burning sees Mathlouthi writing almost entirely in English for the first time - a legacy of her recent relocation to New York. Behind her the record’s instrumental mixture of baroque pop and moody electronic production brings to mind Björk to Bat For Lashes.
