HEARTCORE 18,971 Posted May 20, 2015 Sounds like: a more punk & more French Sky Ferreira (they also look EXTREMELY similar) Soko (real name Stéphanie Sokolinski) is a French singer-songwriter. She has 2 studio albums and 1 EP so far, all of very different styles and genres. The folk/indie pop Not Sokute EP was released in 2007, whilst the masochistic I Thought I Was An Alien debuted in 2012. She then dyed her hair blonde and released the punk album My Dreams Dictate My Reality in 2015. Listen to some tracks below: I'll Kill Her (from Not Sokute EP) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qhh-MJVWwXY No More Home, No More Love (from I Thought I Was An Alien) Ocean of Tears (from My Dreams Dictate My Reality) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jord 3,481 Posted May 20, 2015 I really like I Thought I Was an Alien but now every time I look at her all I can think of is a counterfeit version of the true Queen of the Solar System Sky Ferreira. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTE, she sounds (and looks) like a cheap version of Sky...still, she'll make the wait for Masochism a bit easier 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KillForLove 13,361 Posted May 21, 2015 I guess she like copied Sky's look but the music really sounds like........nothing alike 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KillForLove 13,361 Posted May 22, 2015 This...She doesn't even do electropop Like.........this is more dream-pop, punk tinged than what NTMT was. If anything My Dreams Dictate My Reality was what Sky was trying to do with NTMT but couldn't do completely (i.e. pop tracks like I Blame Myself, Love in Stereo, 24 Hours, & You're Not the One). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

graham4anything 2,859 Posted December 28, 2015 Soko is also an actress, she was in Her and Augustine among others, and has a Lana Del Rey connection with the Daniel Johnston short film. She played Dream Laurie in Hi How are you Daniel Johnston Her song, We might be Dead by Tomorrow, rocketed to #9 on the US Hot 100 (staying on the chart for only one week), after it was used for a youtube video "First Kiss" making it the only record to be in the top 10 and fall off the charts the next week. 1 Quote Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evalionisameme 13,889 Posted March 27, 2017 Listening to this chick now wow mddmr is so similar to ntmt did she copy sky it's good but she sounds like she ripped off her formula and made it less 80s 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunder Revenant 20,943 Posted March 27, 2017 It would be great if SSOI would be the lead for an album but I guess it's like "Girls On Film" - just a single she wanted to put out there. It's a wonderful track anyway Listening to this chick now wow mddmr is so similar to ntmt did she copy sky it's good but she sounds like she ripped off her formula and made it less 80s SoKo was around way before Sky and her sound is much less pop. 0 Quote Just do it.
