Divasonic / Changing Wind / Digital Bliss Recordings

Full of beautiful piano melodies, soaring vocals, interesting use of a flute and well produced beats, Divasonic (aka Lynda Arnold), has put out a strong, cohesive album with Changing Wind. Overall, the sound is a blend of downtempo, house and maybe even a touch of trip hop, with guest appearances by Atiim Chenzira. Each track really highlights Arnold’s multi-instrumental talent, layering solid grooves with loops and samples to create light, ethereal melodies that stay rooted to a dance track. All tracks are good, but here’s a few highlights:

2. Summertime
5. Processing…Luv
8. Mammal Magnets
12. Glass Pebbles (Beat Mix)
