This is definitely not a new album, but I’d only heard about it recently.

I’ve been listening to Imogen Heap since around the time of her album “Speak For Yourself” and have been liking it, but to me, “Ellipse” is where it’s at.
Anyway, Frou Frou. I like the idea that it’s more of a side project and a duo, rather than Imogen on her own. With that, you get different ideas and influences thrown in. It’s still very electronic and upbeat, and contains that Imogen Heap sound that you’re used to hearing. I was reading a bit of the Wikipedia page for this before listening, and it mentioned that Imogen and Guy Sigsworth agreed to make almost every song contain the word “love”. And pretty much all the songs are about love, or simply revolving around it.
A few songs that I particularly like are “Must Be Dreaming” (contains that stuck-in-your-head synth note in the chorus), “Maddening Shroud” (with another catchy chorus) “Flicks”, which is a song that sounds a bit weirder, yet a little more organic.
A nice album with a few songs that stay up in your brain, while the rest are enjoyable to listen to on a relaxing evening, or day.
