Roseau has made the brilliant debut album she's long promised to. As well as appearances on acclaimed records from Lapalux and Dels, an inclusion on Bonobo's Late Night Tales, and tours with Lianne La Havas, Lucy Rose and Laura Mvula, Roseau's music has been featured on Grey's Anatomy and Adulthood. Add in her one million plus plays on YouTube and Spotify, a modeling campaign for Adidas Originals and being tipped by Shura; anticipation for her debut album as Roseau has been running high. Finally Big Dada release 'Salt'. Marrying stories about modern life both rubbish and wondrous to bold, chiming, futuristic pop, 'Salt' is a stunning record. Roseau's talent for writing, her purposeful experiments and her mastery of several instruments as well as electronic production techniques, add up to a powerful arsenal. Roseau learned to write songs and perform uncanny harmonies long before she mastered Logic and laptops, and this finely honed ability sees her shine out from the pack. Written and recorded in the space and quiet of the Essex countryside, 'Salt' contains music both elemental and intimate. Its sonics were inspired by a chance exploration of a giant abandoned warehouse beside a walk Roseau loves. Finding herself in a vast space with only an old car tire, an extinguished bonfire and some bottles and sticks, she screamed, threw bottles, sang, stomped, hit the tire with the sticks, and made as many sounds as possible - then she came back, day after day, to record them. These sounds form the backbone of 'Salt's bewitching sonics, colouring the album with a powerful atmosphere, and providing the perfect backdrop for Roseau's unique voice and lyrics. The album's songs contain powerful themes; about the devastation of first heartbreak, the aftermath and numbness; about belonging, or not; and about self-confidence and its absence. Roseau's love of stories goes back to the song-tales her grandfather sang her when she was a child. 'Salt' is full of stories, whether about broken hearts and yearning ('Salt',) troubled nights out ('New Glass',) or the wired compulsion of a road trip ('Florida',) Roseau enhances the natural beauty of her voice with her experimental harmonies and pitch shifts, adding texture to an album that's casually littered with infectious hooks. After starting work on the album at her parents' house, she brought in Doganion, her friend and former Tape Club labelmate, for a fresh set of ears. The pair set about writing and recording in Red Bull's studios, and Roseau soon roped in Jacob Welsh from The Hics and Mark Rainbow from Laurel Collective to help. After the bulk of the writing and recording was complete, she returned to her family home to tailor and tweak, putting the final touches to her astonishing debut. 'Salt' is British music from the leftfield at its best: experimental but welcoming, deep but utterly addictive.LP - With Download.
