Track Of The Day 20/4 – Sofia Portanet

'Art Deco'

Sofia Portanet doesn't want to rush her art.

Working in a cool, measured fashion, the Berlin based pop auteur has sketched out a vivid, enticing sonic universe.

Debut single 'Freier Geist' hit home in 2018, with Sofia set to release her similarly titled debut album this summer through Duchess Box Records.

Written by Sofia Portant and her collaborating producer Steffen Kahles at their Berlin studio, it's a bold, dynamic work, so layered, and nuanced in its approach.

New single 'Art Deco' is a poised return, with that trademark sense of calm, of stillness radiating through each note.

Reminiscent of 'Heroes' era Bowie or even aspects of Kate Bush, 'Art Deco' sweeps back with an austere sense of glamour.

We've got first play of the video, and it's a sweeping introduction to the world of Sofia Portanet.
