02 | Erika de Casier — Sensational
The quality of this record is an ode to its name, because the way in which Erika de Casier is innovating the music scene with such a unique sound is truly sensational. On her second album, Erika explores a futuristic sound inspired by drum n’ bass beats interpolated with a nostalgic R&B from the 90s and early 2000s, very much in the style of Sade. And even though Erika's voice is subtle and velvety, the experimental instrumentals create a contrast that makes her stand out in a glorious way. This is the sound of the R&B of the future. PS. Do yourself a favor and create a playlist shuffling between Sensational and PinkPantheress’ debut mixtape ‘to hell with it’. Your ears will be thankful.
