Why do we like this?

This is one of those wonderful songs that really make me stop in your tracks. 

If you aren't already across Frøkedal, I'm excited to introduce you to her today. Hailing from Norway, Anne Lise Frøkedal is better known to some for her work with bands Harrys Gym and Sufjan-collaborators I Was A King. She's just released her ominous and beautiful four-track solo debut, and it's clear that she's one to watch.

"First Friend" is everything that I love about dark, female fronted electro-pop. With a deep rhythm and rolling bass, the atmosphere is murky, yet enticing. The eerie melody sends shivers down your spine, with Frøkedal's rich, breathy voice demanding every drop of your attention.  

"First Friend" features as the final track on Frøkedal's debut EP I See You, which came out this week on Propeller Recordings. Listen to the whole thing here.
