Vancouver producer/songwriter Louise Burns won much praise last year for her superb take on Depeche Mode’s ‘See You’, and she continues that rich vein of form on her new release. It’s a pop album, but it’s the kind of pop that shimmers with a chic sophistication, full of subtle hooks and the odd breezy chorus. She says ‘Elements’ is a pop album for introverts, and I’m not going to be disagreeing with much of that. JL

Released 21 April on Light Organ Records
