FEMME

[drewby 9,246]

From a music blog (since there's no bio for her):

 

 

The UK M.I.A? The new Charli XCX? Robyn version 2.0? The modern version of Amazulu? (OK that last one might be a bit obscure for younger readers). Whatever your reference point is one thing is for sure, Femme is bloody brilliant. This is thoroughly modern pop brought to you by South London based producer and vocalist Laura Bettinson a Goldsmiths graduate who has already been involved in a broad church of projects including Ultraísta, the band formed by Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich and drummer Joey Waronker as well as eccentric electronic pop act Dimbleby & Capper. However it’s with Femme that we really feel Laura has found her space. The songs she’s making are a little bit left of centre but with fantastic hooks and snappy lyrics. “I’m looking at the girl in the Afghan Coat and wondering if she’s naked underneath,” is our favourite. 

 

The sound of Femme is all candy rhymes, booty shaking bass lines, cool for school raps, candyfloss computerisations, cartoon hooks, sassy self-belief and just a hell of a lot of fun. With 2 double A Sides Educated /Double Trouble and Fever Boy / Heartbeat (on 12” heart shaped vinyl) already out there Femme has got our attention. Now it’s time that she got yours. 

 

Fans of everyone mentioned above you have to check her out! *she's a little like Peaches too

 

And cyber sleuths help me out with getting a list of back catalogs together

Really told myself I'd ignore her, but now that I'll be seeing her live in October, I guess I have to get into her stuff. :\

Fever Boy is good as fuck, excuse me?

 

also Who's That was on Amazon or iTunes, looks like it was pulled but someone put it on SC 

 

and yes, why do you think I have BTD in these threads. He's a sleuth at artists like this

 

Sirens and Bring It Back Round were on her SC but got pulled and I can't find them and I don't want to message last.fm users but I will

[National Anthem 9,904]

Willing to dive in if someone PM's me a zip

[Atom Heart 1,931]

Send me a zip of all her available music.

[Hundred Dollar Bill 21,805]

Send me a zip of all her available music.

 

I second this plz.

I see I'm already bringing in that controversy

 

I don't suppose you got any of these songs in good quality?

 

Also why do I love all these features more than her solo songs
