An eclectic mix of new songs & 'best of' previous album releases, with some reworked into new styles & also performed live & remixed.
Revamped melodies and mashed up lyrics from previous album tracks + new songs.
Electro-acoustic folktronic café bar style music produced by duo Joanne O'Dowd and Andrew Perron. Best enjoyed as a pre club warm up or as after club chillout.
Their sound has been compared to Kosheen, EBTG, Moloko, Bent, & Orbital.
All tracks were co-written, co-performed and co-produced by Joanne O'Dowd & Andrew Perron. Recorded, engineered & mastered at LUST4LUV studios.
Using virtual studio software to edit & process her vocals, Jo created a textured electronic soundscape of layered synthesis & vocoders.
The music written solo by Jo as Rhapsodyze is pure electronica, with synthetic rhythms, textures & vocals. Her tracks are then produced by the duo together.
