Умница, красавица, и просто настоящая британская леди с шикарным английским произношением, чей конек - утонченность, стильность и шарм вкупе с обаянием и простым, естественным очарованием. Софи из тех немногих поп-диско-певиц, чей голос ни с каким другим не спутаешь. Весь шарм ее вокала особенно проявляется на ее втором альбоме "Shoot From The Hip".

Что послушать: "Shoot From The Hip" (2003)

09. Alison Goldfrapp (Goldfrapp)

http://s017.radikal.ru/i421/1202/d6/09832b4d11eb.png

Элисон Голдфрапп, по фамилии которой и названа ее группа, в Goldfrapp числиться вокалисткой, автором текстов, музыки и вообще главной движущей силой на пару с музыкантом-мультиинструменталистом Уиллом Грэгори. …

Stereolab is one of those bands where it almost seems pointless to write a review. Their fans are fiercely dedicated and almost unanimously unflagging in their enthusiasm for "The Groop". Certainly Stereolab is in a class of its own. There is no other group, or Groop even, that sounds like they do. With their latest release, "Not Music", they give us a heaping helping of electropop goodness.

The fact that Stereolab is in a class by itself can be seen as both a good and a bad thing. They are instantly recognizable, which allows them a certain amount of freedom because it seems that no matter what they do they can never not sound like Stereolab.
